ABOUT THE STORY: Young Ferdinand does not enjoy butting heads with other young bulls, preferring instead to sit under a cork tree smelling the flowers. His mother is concerned that he might be lonely and tries to persuade him to play with the other calves, but when she sees that Ferdinand is content as he is, she leaves him alone. Ferdinand grows to be the biggest bull in the herd and he often spends time alone. All the other bulls dream of being chosen to compete in the bullfights in Madrid, but Ferdinand still prefers smelling the flowers instead. One day, five men come to the pasture to choose a bull for the bullfights. Ferdinand is again on his own, sniffing flowers, when he accidentally sits on a bumblebee. Upon getting stung as a result, he runs wildly across the field, snorting and stamping. Mistaking Ferdinand for a mad and aggressive bull, the men rename him "Ferdinand the Fierce" and take him away to Madrid. All of Madrid, including many beautiful ladies, turn out to see the handsome matador fight "Ferdinand the Fierce". . ~ We appreciate your consideration of one of our books, art prints or novelty items.

Soft cover, coil-spiral bound. Condizione: Good / Vintage. No Dust Jacket. First edition by publisher. Stated First Printing, 152 pages. Large spiral-bound paperback. Generous and thoughtful vegetarian cookbook in very good used condition. Noted surface mark or scar to the front cover measuring approximately 3 x 1 inches; otherwise clean, solid, and well preserved. Binding intact and pages clean and unmarked. The Visual Gourmet is both a cookbook and an artful presentation of international vegetarian cuisine. Recipes are paired with elegant hand-rendered calligraphy and pen-and-ink illustrations, giving the book the feel of a personal culinary journal rather than a mass-market cookbook. The content ranges from fresh, inventive vegetable-forward dishes to thoughtfully adapted traditional fare, with clear instructions and approachable techniques. Elizabeth Yasek's emphasis is on creativity and visual pleasure as much as flavor, making this an appealing volume for home cooks who enjoy themed meals, special occasions, or expanding their weekly menus with something distinctive. Particularly well suited for vegetarians, adventurous cooks, and those drawn to the aesthetics of hand-lettered books and small-press California publishing of the late 20th century. A charming and practical cookbook that also works as a gift-able, display-worthy kitchen companion. 152 p. Illustrated with Calligraphy, Pen and Ink Drawings (illustratore). Book.…

3: Cloth/Embossed Hardcover. Condizione: B: Book: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: C: w/dj Minor Wear: G+. First Edition Stated. 112 pages. First edition hardcover published by Vantage Press, 1971, with original dust jacket. Signed by the author on the front endpaper, dated February 28, 1972. Book and jacket are in good condition with light edge wear and minor surface wear consistent with age; binding is solid and pages are clean, bright, and unmarked throughout. ~ Capitol Plaza is a sharp work of political and social satire, written in a black-humor vein, imagining a near-future America shaped by authoritarian efficiency, public spectacle, and moral absolutism. ~ Grover C. Young employs exaggerated yet unsettlingly familiar characters-politicians, bureaucrats, religious figures, and media operators-to explore corruption, crime, punishment, and the fragile balance between order and freedom. ~ The novel's tone recalls classic dystopian and satirical traditions, blending wit with unsettling social critique in a way that remains strikingly relevant. ~ A scarce signed copy of an uncommon 1970s satirical novel, appealing to collectors of political fiction, dystopian literature, and signed modern first editions. Would make a great gift, even if that's for yourself. Dust Jacket, Illustrated (illustratore). SIGNED & INSCRIBED By Author. Book. …

Hard Back / Cloth Binding. Condizione: Very Good, Vintage. No Dust Jacket. The Carman's Helper: Second Edition, Revised. Hugh K. Christie. Railway Educational Press, Inc., Chicago, 1920. Stated Second Edition, Revised; first edition copyright 1919 and second edition copyright 1920. Original blue cloth hardcover lettered in gilt; approximately 280 pages including index and supplementary matter; generously illustrated throughout with black-and-white railway photographs, technical drawings, and diagrams. No dust jacket. Good to better vintage condition. The original cloth binding shows light rubbing, scattered small marks, and wear at the corners, edges, and spine ends consistent with age and its intended use as a working technical manual. The gilt lettering remains visible, the binding is sound, and the pages appear complete, clean, and firmly readable. A comprehensive practical handbook for railroad carmen working during the transition from wooden rolling stock to early steel railway cars. Christie explains railroad-car inspection, maintenance, organization, supervision, shop efficiency, light and heavy repairs, freight-car shop work, steel-car repairs, intermediate-terminal operations, air-brake repair and testing, couplers, draft gear, derailments and wrecking equipment, hot boxes and journal bearings, federal safety appliances, first aid, passenger-car emergency repairs, and established shop practices. Detailed discussions cover brake rigging, journal boxes, knuckles, couplers, truck springs, wheels, center plates, draft sills, air-brake cylinders and reservoirs, terminal inspection, repair-track planning, car-heating equipment, and the tools and materials required for field and shop work. The photographic illustrations document actual railroad equipment and repair methods, giving the volume considerable value as a primary source for early twentieth-century railway technology, labor, safety, and mechanical practice. This is an authentic 1920 original edition rather than a modern facsimile, reprint, or print-on-demand copy. Original working manuals of this type often received heavy shop use, making complete, solid, presentable examples increasingly difficult to locate in the antiquarian market. An important reference for collectors of railroadiana, transportation historians, railway museums, mechanical and industrial-history libraries, restorers of historic rolling stock, and researchers studying the everyday work of American railroad carmen. It would make a thoughtful and distinctive gift for a serious railway collector, historian, retired railroad worker, museum library-or for yourself.
