A propos de cet article

SIGNED THIRD PRINTING WITH ORIGINAL DUST JACKET AND AN ARCHIVE OF AT LEAST 19 NEWSPAPER COLUMNS BY THE AUTHOR. Caroline S. Coleman. Five Petticoats on Sunday. Greenville, South Carolina: Hiott Press, 1963. Third printing, following the 1962 first edition. Hardcover in the original dust jacket; xv, 145 pages; illustrated with photographs and drawings. Signed “Caroline S. Coleman” in blue ink on the front endpaper. An unusually rich author-related copy accompanied by at least 19 original newspaper clippings containing columns by Caroline S. Coleman. Many display Coleman’s portrait and printed byline. Representative titles visible in the collection include “School Closes Down,” “The Bicycles of Other Days,” “The Last Scene at Appomattox,” “The Hitching Post,” “The Train Thieves,” and “The Old-Time Castor,” together with additional columns concerning domestic customs, transportation, education, Civil War memory, and South Carolina regional history. Several of the clipping titles do not appear to correspond directly with the book’s published chapter titles and may preserve writings not collected in this volume. Five Petticoats on Sunday grew from Coleman’s columns for the Greenville Piedmont and preserves stories of family, community, and Scotch-Irish life in the South Carolina Piedmont, particularly the Fairview, Fountain Inn, and Greenville areas. Subjects include rural domestic life, clothing, schools, religion, farming, folk customs, travel, medicine, cooking, and memories extending from Reconstruction into the early twentieth century. The work was later expanded and republished as Scotch-Irish Life in the South Carolina Piedmont. Green cloth boards with gilt lettering and ruled border. Binding remains sound; gilt is distinct. Minor exterior rubbing and scattered pale spotting. Interior is generally clean, with scattered foxing or brown spotting, particularly to the endpapers. The author’s ink signature is clear and well preserved. Original pale pink and white dust jacket shows age-toning, spine darkening, surface soiling, scattered stains, rubbing, and light edge and corner wear. No major jacket loss is apparent. The accompanying newspaper clippings are age-toned, folded, trimmed, and extremely brittle, with some edge chipping, short tears, or fragmentary portions possible. Because of their fragility, they have not been repeatedly unfolded or individually photographed; representative examples and group views are provided. The clippings will be retained with the book and protected separately rather than placed directly between its pages. A distinctive signed South Carolina association copy and compact author archive, especially appealing for collections devoted to Greenville and Fountain Inn history, South Carolina women writers, regional journalism, genealogy, Scotch-Irish culture, and Southern social history.…

Description de la boutique

Welcome to The Hidden History of Books, where every volume has a story waiting to be rediscovered. As a retired librarian with a background in scholarly research and book provenance, I specialize in rare books and first editions that span all genres — from the overlooked and obscure to the culturally iconic. My inventory is carefully sourced from estate sales and private collections, with a focus on books that carry the quiet weight of time, ownership, and intellectual legacy. I believe a book’s value lies not just in its content or rarity, but in the lives it has touched along the way — authors, owners, annotators, and collectors. That belief informs everything I do. You can count on: Conservative grading — no surprises, no exaggerations. I highlight flaws openly and describe condition with care. Detailed listings with a focus on historical and bibliographic context when available. Fast, safe shipping using USPS Media Mail and secure packaging to protect your purchase. Whether you’re a collector, a scholar, or a fellow lover of forgotten shelves, I invite you to browse the catalog and uncover the hidden histories that live between the covers.…
