Full title: THE A B C AND X Y Z OF BEE CULTURE. A CYCLOPEDIA OF EVERYTHING PERTAINING TO THE CARE OF THE HONEYBEE: BEES, HIVES, HONEY, IMPLEMENTS, HONEY PLANTS, ETC. FACTS GLEANED FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF THOUSANDS OF BEEKEEPERS, AND AFTERWARD VERIFIED BY THE AUTHORS. Front bord subtitle: "The A.I. Root Bee Library." 1929 printing ("213th Thousand" as stated upon title page; first published 1877 per OCLC). [16], 815 pages. Hardcover: H 23.25cm x L 15.25cm. No dust jacket. Original dark boards; stamped lettering and centerpiece stamped honeybee vignette decorate front board; slender scuffing at edges and along board joints. Text block edges well toned with some foxing and small stains. front pastedown has two-line ink ownership inscription "Ben Burney Jr. | 1935." along with circa 1950s-1970s personal bookplate of daughter Marilyn B. Thompson [Marilyn Ruth Burney Thompson]. Strong foxing/toning to endpapers; small dark stain at top spine corners if several initial leaves; two lines of pencil notes on rear free endpaper verso; some foxing/toning to interior leaves. First and last quires slightly pulled; short splitting to surface paper at top of front hinge but binding remains firm. Double-column text with b/w photographs and illustrations throughout. A good copy of one of the classic apiology titles. *** Additionally laid-in a front endpapers is an original single-sided paper label, H 5 3/16 inches x L 6 1/4 inches, titled NOTHING IS BETTER FOR BREAKFAST THAN HOT CAKES AND HONEY GUARANTEED PURE AND FREE FROM BITTER-WEED BY BEN BURNEY, JR. CRYSTAL SPRINGS, MISS. Presumably intended to be applied to a box or jar but unused in that regard with some soiling/toning, faint creasing at bottom, and shallow wear along right margin. Label is printed in yellow, red, and black; bee and flower illustration on left with wooden hive body box and flower illustration on right. No date specified but probably circa 1930-1950. There is a Crystal Springs, Mississippi cemetery record for a Ben I. Burney [Ben Ike Burney] (1902-1993) whose dates overlap the label's estimated time frame. Online research regarding the Burney honey-apiary operation turns up nothing nor does an independent search of the Mississippi Secretary of State and Department of Agriculture archives. However a small and relatively local honeybee operation in 1930s-1940s rural Copiah County could have easily escaped government business/tax registration or agricultural inspection/certification. Depression-era agriculture product labels for central Mississippi - an area characterized by modest family farms and not the multi-thousand acre plantations of the state's Mississippi River region - are quite uncommon and are an interesting niche within the field of collectible advertising. …

Die bedeutende Bahn, im Volksmund KATY genannt, geriet 1880 unter die Kontrolle des berüchtigten Jay Gould und wurde von ihm bis 1888 finanziell bis zum Bankrott ausgeplündert. 1891 übernahm eine Gruppe unter der Leitung von John D. Rockefeller die KATY und baute sie innerhalb kurzer Zeit zu einer der führenden Eisenbahngesellschaften im Süden der USA aus. Das fast 2.200 Meilen lange System erstreckte sich von St. Louis und Kansas City im Norden bis nach Houston und Galveston im Süden. Ausgestellt auf und rückseitig original signiert von John D.

Es gibt nur 40-60 Stück dieser von Rockefeller signierten Aktien.).…
