A prominent civic leader and attorney in Brooklyn, New York, he was an outspoken abolitionist during the Civil War who served in two New York Infantry units before becoming second lieutenant in the 116th Infantry, an African-American regiment from Kentucky, where he rescued a picket guard at the Dutch Gap Canal in Virginia.

Istanbul, 1899 to ca. 1910. 4to. French ms. on paper. 88 ff. (including some 30 blanks) and ca. 60 inlaid leaves of additional notes. Contemp. cloth with handwritten label on upper cover: "Notes personnelles à M. Sellie (secrètes)". A manuscript for an unrealized publication about the city of Istanbul, written in well legible script throughout by León Sellié, director of the "Compagnie des Eaux de Constantinople". The author began by compiling a rich array of facts on numerous subjects, such as the French embassy, Turkish administration, Ottoman banks, dogs, the climate, dancing, servants, translators, pregnant women, Ferikoy district, the government, French charitable organisations, the press, the police, religion, theatre and toilets ("ambassade de France, administration turque, banques ottomanes, chiens, climat, danses, domestiques, drogmans, femmes enceintes, Ferikeny, gouvernement, oeuvres charitables françaises, presse, police, religion, théâtre, toilettes"). These alphabetically arranged catchwords are increasingly interspersed with additions and insertions, many dated and often in the manner of a diary, including notes of converstaions, personal opinions, and anecdotes. Among other episodes, Sellié mentions the Lorando-Tubini affair that led to the Ottoman-French conflict and the occupation of Mitylene, or the Baghdad railway, which he considers a grave political mistake ("une lourde faute politique"). - Slightly browned, as commensurate with age; well-preserved altogether. A trove of information on politics, society, culture, and history of the Ottoman Empire at th … [Click Below for Full Description]

Large decorative sheet from the Norddeutscher Lloyd, Bremen, the ship that carried the Metropolitan Opera cast of singers and crew on tour to Europe in May 1910.

[Palestine?, ca. 1910?]. An enormous panoramic view drawn in coloured gouaches on a single, continuous roll of unwatermarked wove paper (70 x 583 cm), the drawing running to the edges of the paper. Rolled and stored in a cardboard tube. A panoramic view of what appears to be a fantasy Middle Eastern landscape, with spectacular mountains in the background, a body of water near each end, and a wide variety of buildings and ruins, some clearly classical Roman and others Middle Eastern. The combination of classical Roman architecture with dromedaries and other Middle Eastern features places it very likely in Palestine, but we have not been able to identify specific buildings. The most distinctive ruin, a round Roman temple with five columns on the viewer's side (perhaps a third of the circle), an entablature above them and a vertical base below them, looks more like the Temple of the Vesta at Tivoli than like any known temple in the Middle East (the columns are not rendered in sufficient detail to determine their order, but they are almost certainly not Ionic and are probably Corinthian). There are also classical Roman aqueducts. The six shepherds with their flocks all wear broad-brimmed hats and have staffs, and two are blowing long, slightly curved horns. Several additional figures with broad-brimmed hats and staffs might be pilgrims, one together with what is presumably his wife. - With a 33 cm tear into the left edge, slightly affecting a mountain and the top of a tree, a few insignificant and much smaller tears and with pin holes about 1 cm from the edges from mounting on … [Click Below for Full Description]

Louisville, KY: Nachod Signal Co. , Inc. This set includes five silver gel photographs of Nachod Signal Company's automatic signals on railways.. All photographs are framed with the "Nachod Spells Safety" on the top of the frame and the "Compliments of Nachod Signal Co. , Inc. Louisville, KY" on the bottom of the frame. Photographs in frame measure 6 ½" x 8 ¾" and have not been examined out of frame. On verso are rubber stamps for the Company, including negative numbers which are in manuscript. Set is in good condition and was printed circa 1910. Photographs have light silvering and all have light foxing affecting content; all frames have light to moderate soiling and light wear to edges. The Nachod Automatic Signal System was used by electric railways and trolleys throughout the country and was operated by the movement of the car itself. This technology was patented in 1906 and was much safer than signals operated by car crews, hence the Company's slogan "Nachod Spells Safety." The photographs depict these signals mounted on posts in different locals. This set would be great for the railroad enthusiast or those that want to be reminded of a simpler time. .
