Prima edizione
Softcover. Condizione: very good. First Edition. This white husband-and-wife team of photographers became Black Panther sympathizers through their Peace and Freedom Party political involvement and their deeply-imprinted memories of anti-Semitism (Baruch) and Southern lynchings (Jones). "Slowly, we began to comprehend how severely maligned they were by all the communications media." Armed with a spur-of-the-moment promise from the art director of San Francisco's De Young Museum to show Panther pictures, Baruch approached Kathleen and Eldridge Cleaver, gained their tentative assent and, eventually, their full confidence. The pair's first photographic foray was to a Free Huey rally in Oakland's De Fremery Park. At first they could aim their cameras only at the rank and file, but ultimately they were permitted to photograph the leaders at close range too, including founder Huey Newton at the Alameda County Court House jail. The completed collection became an object of controversy when the exhibit was abruptly canceled, but Baruch and Jones fought back and their show finally opened to record crowds. Displayed here along with a historical interpretation of the Panthers by black journalist William Worthy, a "review of Panther growth and harassment," and the Party rules, platform, and program, the photographs are of demonstrations, crowds, speeches, displays, but mostly of faces--candid, committed, and compellingly human. Introduction by William Worthy. Creasing to the front panel. No later printings referenced. 7" - 9¾". Book.

Prima edizione
Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition. Photos of the Black Panther Party and their audience, taken in late 1968, after Baruch spoke to Kathleen Cleaver at an event; Eldridge Cleaver, notes Baruch in her introduction, asked, "Why do your photographs have feeling, and none of the work I've seen of us by other photographers has?" Baruch and her husband & collaborator Jones studied under Andel Adams, Minor White, Dorothea Lange & Edward Weston at the California School of Fine arts begining in 1946, and were established documentarians by the late 1960s. Baruch credits prejudice she experienced against her as a Jew for her sympathy with other unjustly treated people, and her impulse to give the Panthers, then approaching the peak of their power, a fair showing to the public. Her and Jones's pictures were first exhibited in San Francisco (after some controversy), then in Harlem and at Dartmouth College before this book was published. The book includes numerous b/w photos, Baruch's preface, a critical/concerned essay by Black journalist William Worthy on the Panthers' political state, a Panther chronology, and the Party's own rules and party platform. Hardcover in jacket as pictured; the first edition (first printing) listing no later printings. Light wear to book; jacket with tears near head of spine & upper rear panel, some nicks & other short tears, minor chips, minor crease. Text clean; [128] pages, about 104 b/w photos. Size: Quarto.

Copia autografata
46 signed letters [34 TLS, 12 ALS] comprising decades of correspondence between Frederick Gardner Cottrell and various notable figures of his day in U.S. politics, the international science community, and academia. All letters are housed in new archival mylar sleeves. Cottrell was a notable chemist, inventor, and philanthropist, best known today for his invention of the electrostatic precipitator - one of the first inventions to combat air pollution - and his founding of the Research Corporation for Science Advancement, which used the revenue from the electrostatic precipitator to fund further scientific research, and continues to do so today. While best remembered for these feats, Cottrell had a long and influential career both in the U.S. Federal Government and as a science consultant. He was well known nationally and internationally - in industry, in government, and in academia - for his support of and contributions to new ideas and new talent within the scientific community. The letters, which span from 1901-1941, track Cottrell over the course of 40 years, and evidence the many relationships he had over that period with some of the most influential people of the time. These include a letter of introduction from Alexander Graham Bell, a discussion of chemistry with Thomas Edison, replies from two Nobel Prize winning scientists - the discoverer of the noble gasses, William Ramsay, and discoverer of the electron, J. J. Thomson - to Cottrell's request to study in their labs, and exchanges with two presidents, Herbert Hoover and Woodrow Wilson. Other letters show his personal interactions with leading scientists of his day (Robert J. Van de Graaff, Georges Claude, George E. Hale) and heads of industry (Henry L. Doherty, Ivy Lee), and track the path of his career through his time as the director of the Bureau of Mines; to chairman of the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Technology on the National Research Council; to head of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Fixed Nitrogen Research Lab, and beyond. These letters, the vast majority of which were sent by these notable figures to Cottrell, evidence his expertise, the depth and breadth of his professional interests, and his eagerness to collaborate and share research and ideas, coming together to trace the life of a man whose work was and continues to be consequential to the advancement of science as a whole. CONTENTS: 1-Page TLS from inventor of the telephone Alexander Graham Bell to a Mr. Fish, dated December 20, 1911, introducing Cottrell to him. In Very Good condition. In this letter, Bell is writing in his capacity as Regent of the Smithsonian Institution. On 1331 Connecticut Avenue letterhead. Faintly creased, with mild wrinkling along the edges. Signed in black ink by Bell: "Alexander Graham Bell". 1-page TLS from inventor of the light bulb Thomas Edison to Cottrell dated January 13, 1925, discussing the unexpected results of a past chemistry experiment of his in relation to the generation of ammonia. In Very Good condition. TLS is on Edison's personal letterhead ("From the Laboratory of Thomas A. Edison"). Lightly age toned, with some wrinkling and small closed tears along the top edge. Faintly creased from past folding. Signed by Edison in black ink: "Thos. A. Edison". Includes a lightly soiled 1-page facsimile of Cottrell's reply. 2-page ALS from Nobel Prize winning physicist Joseph John Thomson to an unnamed recipient, likely Cottrell, dated July 6, 1901, discussing the possibility of Cottrell coming to study at Thomson's lab. In Very Good condition. In 1901, Cottrell would have been studying in Europe at the University of Berlin, seeking to study in the laboratory of an accomplished scientist. Thomson was already a figure of some renown for his 1897 discovery of the electron, which represented the first identification of a subatomic particle, and would be awarded the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physics in recognition of his work. ALS is on Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge letterhead, and shows a faint crease across the middle and light pencil writing in the top margin of the first page. Small red pencil mark beneath letterhead. Signed in black ink by Thomson: "J. J. Thomson". 1-page ALS from Nobel Prize winning chemist William Ramsay to an unnamed recipient, likely Cottrell, dated 14th August, 1901, in which Ramsay says there is no availability for Cottrell to study in his lab. In Very Good condition. As with the letter from J. J. Thomson, Cottrell would have been studying in Europe at the University of Berlin at the time this letter was sent. In 1901, Ramsay was just a few years away from his landmark 1904 discovery of argon, the first identified noble gas, which would earn him the 1904 Nobel Prize in Chemistry and lead to the development of a new section of the periodic table. ALS is lightly toned along the edges, faintly creased, with a similar red pencil mark in the top margin. Signed by Ramsay in black ink: "W. Ramsay". 1-page TLS from U.S. President Herbert Hoover to Cottrell, dated September 17, 1920. In Very Good minus condition. Brief letter of thanks for Cottrell's forwarding another person's letter to Hoover. On Hoover's personal letterhead. Faintly stamped, "Received / 1920 Sep 18 / Interior Department Bureau of Mines / Washington D.C.". Small rust marks and light wrinkling along the top margin; faintly creased. Signed in black ink by Hoover: "Herbert Hoover". Two 1-page TLS's from Herbert Hoover, each part of an exchange with Cottrell. In Very Good condition. Includes a 2-page facsimile of Cottrell's response. First Hoover TLS sent February 5, 1926; Cottrell's response sent February 8, 1926; Hoover's second TLS sent February 12, 1926. In his first letter, Hoover asks Cottrell about the potential improper investigation of a new method of creating aluminum by the Bureau of Mines. In the second letter, Hoover thanks Cottrell for clearing up the issue. Hoover's letters are on Department of Commerce letterhead. Letters show fa. Signed.
