Isolated instances of chipping, a heightened prominence of fraying and bending along the edges of the spine, moderate discoloration Paged Content: G. Discoloration, edge wear, possible instances of tearing, deckled pagination, foxing ABBREVIATIONS KEY FS (Factory Sealed) VF (Very Fine) F (Fine) NF (Near Fine) VG (Very Good) G (Good) FR (Fair) P (Poor) GRADING TERMINOLOGY Chipping - A descriptor emphasizing the absence of portions of a book's edges, specifically as it relates to the binding or dust jacket cover Foxing - Brown spotting of paged content due to chemical exposure or reactivity to chemical agents, a state of condition commonplace to 19th Century written publications, particularly evident in steel engravings Deckled Pagination - Deckled pagination is identified as content ascribed to a particular book or novel whose edges are not evenly distributed, giving it the appearance of being loose from its fulcral attachment (spine). Some publishing companies utilize this as a means of establishing a sense of illusion with regard to the chronological age of a product (so as to create the impression of a faux-type of significance in the nostalgic sense), but, in most instances, deckled pages are a by-product of time. --------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE - If any of the items being featured here pique your interest, please don't hesitate to visit us online at our other Etsy sales venues at the following web addresses: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ArtReDunn – A massive database of scarce and unique artistic compositions from prominent luminaries to lesser known commodities comprising a litany of disciplines. https://www.etsy.com/shop/CollectiblesReDunn – An online service portal rife with rare antique and vintage collectibles from time immemorial, with particular focus and attention paid to items possessing a sense of nostalgic fervor. https://www.etsy.com/shop/OneReDunn – Featuring a large selection of novelty pieces, home décor, household tools and accessories tailored to fit your specific needs. https://www.etsy.com/shop/VinylsReDunn – Showcasing a large selection of antiquarian record albums from some of the music industry's most celebrated talents, including Johnny Cash, Chubby Checker, Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, and many more from a plethora of backgrounds and genres spanning generations.

"This is one of the happiest days of my life," May Winston Caldwell said in her speech at the dedication of the Battle of Nashville Peace monument on Nov. 11, 1927. (CLICK ON ALL IMAGES TO ENLARGE.) PHOTO: Courtesy of Tennessee State Library and Archives A view of looking south on Franklin Road. (PHOTO: Courtesy Tennesee State Library and Archives) GOOGLE STREET VIEW: Present-day view. Pedestal for the old monument is just beyond brush at right. Franklin Road was greatly changed since the monument was dedicated in 1927. Like this blog on Facebook | Follow me on Twitter In a large scrapbook, lifelong Nashvillian May Winston Caldwell saved mementoes from one of the most impressive accomplishments of her remarkable life. Leaf through the album and you'll find correspondence with a world-famous Italian sculptor, a note from President Coolidge's White House, a poem by Tennessee's poet laureate ... and remarkable photos of a Nashville Civil War monument with a tortuous history. The monument dedication received prominent coverage in the Nashville Banner (above) and Nashville Tennessean. As president of the Ladies Battlefield Association in the 1920s, Caldwell was instrumental in the creation of a monument honoring soldiers on both sides who fought in the 1864 Battle of Nashville. In a decade's-long effort, the wife of a prominent Nashville businessman helped raise money for her project from individuals, local businesses and the United Daughters of the Confederacy. The Ladies Battlefield Association finally even squeezed cash from the state, a grand achievement in an era of small government. Italian emigre Guiseppe Moretti, a renowned sculptor, was commissioned to build the work. Cost: $30,000. The monument's 40-foot obelisk -- which included a massive bronze sculpture of horses and a glorified figure of youth -- was topped with a statue of an angel. Moretti even helped select its location in Nashville, a knoll along Franklin Road near Thompson Lane. (The area was occupied by Confederate artillery battery during the battle.) "I love this monument," he said, "more than any other work that I have done ..." The efforts of Caldwell and Moretti were not universally praised. "Atrocious as a work of art," W.J. Warren wrote about the monument in a letter to the editor published in a local newspaper. "... it seems to me," he added, "to be a ghastly piece of bad taste for us to go out of our way and spend money to celebrate what was the last despairing gasp of the Confederacy." Nevertheless, on Armistice Day, Nov. 11, 1927, nearly 500 people gathered on a knoll four miles from downtown Nashville for the dedication of the Battle of Nashville Peace Monument. Several Confederate veterans were among the crowd -- including at least one who served under Nathan Bedford Forrest. John Trotwood Moore, a local journalist, historian and poet, read his work: "Good night Blue and Gray! God keep watch till the day. When you arrive in the peace of new skies. Good night!" (Calvin Coolidge declined his invitation to attend, but Tennessee Gov. Henry Horton spoke.) "This is one of the happiest days of my life," Caldwell said in her dedication speech, "to know that our dream lives." Caldwell witnessed the retreat of the Army of Tennessee after the Battle of Nashville, and her brother served as an officer in the Confederate Army. Several Confederate veterans attended the dedication of the Battle of Nashville monument. (PHOTO: Courtesy Tennessee State Library and Archives) Caldwell's monument stood defiantly on the site until 1974, when a tornado toppled its obelisk and angel, destroying them. By the early 1980s, construction of an interstate had made what was left of her project a castaway on a tiny island in a sea of development. Behind brush on a thin strip of land above busy Franklin Road, the base of Moretti's masterpiece remains, a forgotten piece of Nashville's past. (A second iteration of the monument was dedicated on a new site nearby in 1999.) An image of Caldwell as a little girl, published in the Nashville Tennessean in 1964. Thankfully, May Winston Caldwell -- active in Tennessee historical societies -- collected her Ladies Battlefield Association work in an album, found today in the Tennessee State Archives. Three circa-1927 images of the monument in the scrapbook are a unique window into Nashville's past. An enlargement of the background of one of the photographs shows what a small part of the vast battlefield may have looked like in 1864. In another enlargement, we see a historical marker yards from the monument -- what happened to that? -- while in another a car travels south on Franklin Road, which looks much different than its present-day appearance. Caldwell, who raised 10 children in the "Longview" mansion near her monument, died in 1939. She was 84. "Mrs. Caldwell's life," the Nashville Tennessean wrote in her obituary, "exercised a benevolent influence on all with whom she came in contact." In this enlargement of the photo above, a car travels south on Franklin Road. In another enlargement of the photo above, we find a historical marker near the monument.

Un volumen con tres novelas en las que destacan la inmediatez, la vocación experimental y la maestría técnica de Camilo José Cela El rasgo más destacable que comparten las tres obras aquí reunidas es la libertad y la audacia insólitas con que fueron escritas. Las tres retan al lector desprevenido y le exigen abandonar sus expectativas relacionadas con lo que debe ser una novela. Mrs Caldwell habla con su hijo tienemucho de soliloquio alucinado afín al poema en prosa. Oficio de tinieblas 5 es quizá la más visceral de las novelas del autor, que la definió como «la purga de mi corazón». Y San Camilo 1936 es sin duda una de las obras maestras de Cela y acaso la novela más importante y veraz que se ha escrito sobre las raíces de la guerra civil española.La crítica ha dicho:«Cela fue el restaurador de la función de la literatura en una sociedad aturdida y pragmática.»José-Carlos Mainer «Uno de los escritores más radicales de todo el siglo XX. [...] Los relojes corren a favor de Camilo José Cela, segundo a segundo, minuto a minuto, hasta marcar la hora exacta de su eterna maestría.»Alberto Olmos «El último gran escritor español, creador de fábulas, de lenguaje, de palabras, con una capacidad prodigiosa para expresarse.»Francisco Umbral«Su escritura es un deslumbrante artificio multiplicado en páginas, para decirlo con un verso suyo, que alumbraron tan fuerte como si ardieran versos.»El País «Cela ha vuelto a poner en marcha sobre los caminos de la Península al viejo héroe literario, con espíritu muy logrado e indudables aciertos en su reactualización.»Alonso Zamora Vicente «Cela es [...] un heredero de la tragedia clásica, capaz de sumergirnos en las simas de la angustia y del dolor; y también un heredero de la picaresca española.»Juan Manuel de Prada

Definitely one of a kind, "Golder's on A Snowy Night" is a genuine 1940's created applique art which is professionally framed, matted and under glass! Made by the late Mrs. Caldwell when she lived in England with her family. They would frequent the Golder's Green Ski resort, and she made this to commemorate that special time in her family's lives. It's raw and naive, bittersweet and hand crafted with so much love. Depicting Momma Caldwell in front wearing a blue hat and pink vest, with her young son and daughter on either side, and four others on skis behind her. There is a navy blue and white polka dotted fabric (acting as stars!) behind a crescent moon. Twigs of Cedar act as trees, and there is a felt white snowy foundation for the skiers and Caldwell's. Paper cut outs for actual bodies with pen or pencil drawing, plus scrap fabric for clothing. Ste size is 8x11" approximately, and framed size is 13x16". This wonderful 80 year old fabric/textile art was created imperfectly with hand cut materials and natural items from Nature. It has no damage to the professionally made frame, matting or glass which was redone in the 1980's or so, except for a small tear on paper on reverse side. Clean and from a smoke free home, ready to hang! I ship within a day of purchase and include a copy of this listing for your records. Thanks for looking and please reach out with any questions!
