New York: Harper & Brothers, 1890. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Fine copy of the first edition, first printing, in the Publisher's original decorated cloth with the title label applied to the front board and the title and author label applied to the spine panel (the spine shows some minor sunning, most notably to the spine label due to the dust jacket cut out -- see below, and the boards show some minor corner rubs; multiple pages are unopened, or are only partially opened, on their leading fold, showing the book to have been only partially read -- or possibly entirely unread); in a Very Good + example of the EXCEEDINGLY RARE UNSOPHISTICATED dust jacket -- original to this copy of the book -- with scattered small tears and chips and with the arc over the spine label split on one side and nearly so on the other. The viewer will notice, of course, that the dust jacket is plain as it is from the period when jackets were used not to sell the book but only to keep the book clean… Read More

New York: Currier & Ives, 1855. Hand-colored lithograph approx. 29" x 19½" (by sight, and not examined out of frame); a few slight traces of browning, but in all a fine example with strong coloring; attractively matted and in a curly maple frame. "Currier & Ives produced more than 200 lithographs depicting the steamboats that navigated the nation's great rivers, such as the Hudson and the Mississippi. The boats were celebrated as examples of industrialization and the firm often documented the latest advancements in technology. Here, the paddle steamer is shown cruising gently as it travels between St. Louis and New Orleans. Its two stacks billow dark smoke and two American flags fly proudly above its upper deck. Currier & Ives employed many artists to design their prints. Charles Parsons moved to New York City from England when he was nine years old and later became the head art director for Harper's. He produced over 30 images for Currier & Ives and specialized in marine subjects" (springfieldmuseums.org). Read More
