Boards stamped in blind and gilt, with owner's name: "William Henry Beard, March 4th, 1888" in gilt on the front board. Binder's ticket: "Shipman's Patent, Invoice & Scrap… Book" on the front pastedown. Scuffing to the edges, very good. A large and meticulously assembled collection of wood-engravings clipped from various late-19th Century periodicals, neatly aligned and tipped-in on the versos and rectos of all sixty leaves. The album opens with a cut-out color printed paper bird mounted above a printed card: "An Affectionate Greeting." There follows two full-page wood-engraved portraits of John Wanamaker, the Philadelphia merchant who is considered the father of modern advertising and marketing, and George W. Childs, owner of the *Philadelphia Public Ledger* and an important real estate developer. Both men were great philanthropists throughout the 1880s. The album contains numerous scenic landscapes in the dramatic style of the Hudson River School: mountains, valleys, waterfalls, rivers, bays, mills, etc. in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and elsewhere in New England and throughout the entire country. Also included are street scenes, monuments, and views of towns. A beautiful collection.

Edinburgh and London: William Blackwood. 1918. 8vo. Original illustrated cloth, map paste-down at the front; pp. xvi, 459, plates after photographs by the author, cloth a little marked and dulled, light offsetting to and from endpapers, occasional light spotting to text, otherwise very good.William John Childs has been identifie…d as a British spy (John Fisher, On the Baghdad Road: On the Trail of J. W. Childs, Liverpool University Press, online). "We also know that Childs had an extremely inquisitive mind; that he was gifted in the breadth of his interests, particularly in the knowledge of the classical past of Asia Minor; that he was something of an amateur archaeologist, architectural historian, and numismatist; that, whatever his past, he was by his own admission, no stranger to the sight of blood" (ibid.). He crossed and meandered 1300 miles in only 54 days on foot from Samsun to Iskenderun via Tokat, Sivas, Kayseri, Adana, and Aleppo during tensions between Italy and Turkey.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. A remarkable photograph album documenting an 1891 Canadian and Michigan journey, by Arthur Betram Ridley Wallis (1864-1931). Three weeks after graduating from Oxford with a Master of Fine Arts degree, Wallis, who often used the initials A.B.R., left Liverpool on August 4th, 1891, on the SS Caspian, bo…und for St. John's Newfoundland. On the title page of the album, he described his trip as "a short journey through Canada and into Michigan U.S., undertaken by A.B.R. Wallis in 1891 with no object of any kind whatever". The first eight leaves, out of twenty-six, of the album are annotated with his wry sense of humour. Wallis arrived in St. John's on August 12th, "containing among other curiosities all that is left of ABRW after 8 days on the ocean". The first two photographs are of the harbour and town of St. John's, one by the photographer Simeon H. Parsons. From St. John's, Wallis travelled to Halifax, Niagara Falls, Sault Ste. Marie, the Michigan town of Escabana, Port Arthur (Thunder Bay), Calgary (represented by a photo of the celebrated Blackfoot runner Deerfoot), the Canadian Rockies, Vancouver, back to the Port Arthur region, Montreal, and then Quebec City and vicinity. The identified photographers include Simeon H. Parsons (St. John's), James Ross (Halifax), John Franklin Cooke (Port Arthur), Bernard "Brainard" Freeman Childs (Sault Ste. Marie), Boorne & May (Canadian Rockies), Bailey Bros, Bailey & Neelands, and William McFarlane Notman (Vancouver), John George Parks (Montreal), and Louis-Prudent Vallée (Quebec). While there are five vernacular photographs out of 51 total, the large majority are by professional photographers that he collected enroute. There are also three engravings of Ottawa, Portage La Prairie, and Winnipeg, clipped from the 1891 Canadian Pacific magazine. One group portrait of four men that has a differently dressed man in a grey suit, is tentatively identified as Wallis, based on a glancing resemblance to a man in side profile in the Great Lakes region. Many of the photographs are large format. Some interesting images include whaleback barges on the Great Lakes, and firefighting and tobogganing in Montreal. After his trip, Wallis became a barrister in London. The Victoria & Albert Museum contains 79 brass rubbings by Wallis. Album half-bound, 9 1/2 x 12 1/4 inches (24 x 31 cm), spine restored, one leaf detached, a few others partially detached, five pages with missing photographs. Browning and tears to some photographs, dampstaining to leaves. Booklabel from Partridge & Cooper, 192, Fleet Street, on inside cover. Good plus overall. A detailed summary of the photographs, annotations, and photographers will be included. Simeon H. Parsons, James Ross, John Franklin Cooke, Brainard Childs, Boorne & May, Bailey Bros., Bailey & Neelands, William McFarlane Notman, John George Parks, Louis-Prudent Vallée (illustrator).
