Description:
Jeffersonton, Virginia: Unpublished, 1961. Archive of 10 previously unpublished black and white photos of Arnold Palmer during his 1961 visit to the Bolling Farms Golf Club. Each of the photos measures 8 inches by 10 Inches. The photos are accompanied by a scorecard for the course that is signed by Arnold Palmer. Also included are 2 promotional booklets for the Bolling Air Force Base Officers' Open Mess (both dated April 1961), which state that the formal opening of the golf course would be on May 30, 1861. It seems likely that Palmer had been invited to that opening. Palmer's host for the event was the base's communication officer, Robert O'Brien, who took some of the photos and appears in the others. O'Brien later became Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs under Caspar Weinberger. Bolling Farms Golf Club was owned by Air Force offices at Bolling Air Force Base. The course was sold 4 years later to Parkwood Associates and was renamed South Wales Golf Course. The photos are in…

Description:
London: Charles Eyre and William Strahan, 1780. Title page + pp. 691-696. Folio. First edition. Printed on laid paper. Disbound from larger volume. "An Act to allow the exportation of provisions, goods, wares, and merchandize, from Great Britain, to certain towns, ports or places, in North America, which are or may be under the protection of His Majesty's arms; and from such towns, ports or places, to Great Britain, and other parts of His Majesty's dominions." The effect of this act was to amend the American Prohibitory Act of 1776 to to allow the resumption of trade betwenn Britain and those parts of the American colonies that remained under British control. The Prohibitory Act had been the final straw that led to the American Revoltion, but if Parliament thought the 1780 revisions would reverse British fortunes in the colonies, they would be disappointed: The Restoration of Trade Act was too little and too late. The document is in very good condition:…

Chicago: Seymour, Daughaday and Company, 2015. pages 107-160, followed by 7 unnumbered pages of ads . "Prufrock is on pp. 130-135. Written by Eliot while he was still a student at Oxford in 1910-1911, the poem was not published until 1915 in Poetry: A Magazine of Verse. It was the first professionally published work by Eliot, and it placed him at the forefront of the modernist movement. This first appearance of "Prufrock" is much more scarce than the 1917 book edition, and it seldom appears on the antiquarian book market. The magazine is in very good condition: generally clean and bright, with some vertical closed tears along the spine of the wraps; a very faint water stain limited to the bottom 1/4" of the front cover; one tiny dark stain at the bottom of the rear cover; several short closed tears and one tiny chip on the foreedge of the rear cover. In all an attractive, collectible copy of one of the high points of literature in English.. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾"…
