Description:
Milano, Hoepli, 1903; reprint Martino 2002. Hard Cover. 8vo, iii-lii, 571 pages; 23 cm. Besterman 1723. Swordfighting as a sport has existed since ancient Egypt and has been practised in many forms in various cultures. Although jousting and tournament combat were popular in the European Middle Ages, modern (FIE) fencing owes more to unarmoured dueling forms that evolved from 16th-century rapier combat. By the mid-19th century emphasis had shifted to use of the dueling sword or epée de terrain, an unedged variant of the smallsword, and is the basis for modern epée fencing. The principal schools in the discipline are Italian, Spanish and French. This work contains 5000 citations to printed sources. Stock#42490x. Fine, new from publisher. binder's cloth.

"The impetus behind organizing an exhibition about this image was a recognition that the look of snowboarding-- the graphic design, the photography, the ads and the boards-- has been propelled by the input of the riders themselves. This recognition goes beyond... to a discovery that snowboarders, in general, make up a larger body of artistically minded people than one might find in an examination of any other sport."

Description:
Providence, R.I., Gorham Manufacturing Company, 1898; reprint Cranston, R.I., Owl at the Bridge, 2010. The game of golf was new to the United States when Gorham published this catalog of golf prizes in 1898. The St. Andrews Golf Club at Hastings-on-Hudson in New York, established in 1886, was the first permanent club; the first American book on golf was published in 1895. Gorham engaged the young William (Will) Bradley (1868-1962) as printer. The book is filled with delightful stories, a golf poem (The Links o' Innerleven) and a golf song. There is golf history and plugs for golf as a game that doesn't require athletic ability--"a good golfer depends more upon steadiness of nerve than upon muscular agility." The game is good for women as well as men and is growing so fast that there are nearly 75 golf clubs in the country (can you imagine!). Gorham golf-related products include match boxes (20), flasks, umbrella handles, and loving cups of various sizes and cost. Soft Cover. 52 pages,…
