Hardcover. Etat : Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This hefty large octavo volume, binding six monthly issues of the 19th Century magazine, is half-bound in cordovan leather over black pebbled boards, with original floral endpapers, the hinges holding well. Closes its own text block and would thus grade "very good," but we downgrad…e to "good plus" due to substantial wear and rub which has stripped the leather to outer corners. Notable primarily for Thomas Commerford Martin's 18-page essay on Nikola "Tesla's Oscillator and Other Inventions," with 15 illustrations including long-exposure portraits of Mark Twain and Tesla himself, each in Tesla's darkened laboratory, lit only by Tesla's incandescent and phosphorescent bulbs -- including photos of experiments in which lamps are lit "in free space by induction from coil below, energized by distant circuit around the room." This volume also includes a further three-page essay with engraved portrait or Hermann Von Helmholtz by Mr. Commerford Martin; a report with photos on the inventor Hiram Maxim's "New Flying-Machine," a complex and somewhat ramshackle steam-powered (!) construction which never seems to have actually gotten off the ground; Kate Chopin's story "Azelie" (illustrated by Eric Pope); Rudyard Kipling's nine-page story "A Walking Delegate"; comments on a proposal for "Forest Preservation by Military Control" from Frederick Law Olmstead, Theodore Roosevelt, Gifford Pinchot, John Muir, and others; a 19-page essay on John Paul Jones by Molly Elliot Seawell, profusely illustrated by Howard Pyle; the first two parts of Harriet Waters Preston's essay "Beyond the Adriatic," illustrated by Joseph Pennell (who also illustrated Mrs. Schuyler Van Rensselaer's "Churches of Provence"); Mrs. Van Rensselaer's "People in New York," illustrated by Charles Dana Gibson; William M. Sloane's multi-part biography of Napoleon Bonaparte; a 14-page illustrated report on "New Weapons of the United States Army" to include the Krag-Jorgensen rifle with its side-loading magazine, the Ericsson torpedo and numerous coastal defense cannon of up to 12 inches (few of which, we feel certain, were ever fired in anger); a seven page "dramatic sketch" on "The Passing of Muhammad, Prophet of Arabia" in blank verse by Sir Edwin Arnold; Edith Wharton's poem "Jade," and, on the final page, a dialect poem by Paul Lawrence Dunbar. This bound volume weighs slightly more than 4 lbs. -- overseas shipment could be costly. 960 pp., here reduced from $1,275. Drawings by Howard Pyle, Joseph Pennell, Charles Dana Gibson, others (illustrateur).

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This hefty large octavo volume, binding six monthly issues of the 19th Century magazine, is half-bound in black leather over blue-and-black marbled boards, with original floral endpapers, the hinges holding well although there's the beginning of some separation to rear interna…l hinge.
