Joseph Breck & Sons' 1880 Catalogue
Joseph Breck & Sons was a seed and agricultural implements wholesaler and retailer in Boston, Massachusetts, established in 1822. Its founder was Joseph Breck (1794 1873), a noted early horticulturist and botanist. His early fame stemmed from a book he wrote in 1833, The Young Florist, only the second book on flowers published in America. Breck published his company s first catalogue in 1840, the New England Agricultural Warehouse and Seed Store Catalogue, to promote his company s products. This is a reproduction of the April 1, 1880, Joseph Breck & Sons Illustrated Spring Catalogue and Retail Price List of Agricultural Implements and Machines. High quality illustrations and well written (often entertaining) descriptions make this a highly desirable reproduction. tems include: plows, harrows, planters, cultivators, hoes, mowers, rakes, horse hay forks, rollers, scrapers, wheel barrows, store trucks, churns, butter workers, potato diggers, post hole diggers, graters, grindstones, lawn mowers, cistern and well pumps, lawn fountains, garden engines, hydraulic rams, brass syringes, wringers, ice cream freezers, carriage jacks, copper weather vanes, and many other related items.

Guide to the Winterthur Library
This guide to the Joseph Downs Collection of Manuscripts and Printed Ephemera, named for Winterthur's first curator, provides descriptive information for the primary research material held in the collection. The Downs Collection acquires materials from the mid seventeenth century through the twentieth century that document American lifestyles, concentrating on the domestic scene and activities within the household and art. It includes such items as diaries, business accounts of craftsmen whose products decorated dwelling houses, family papers, tax records, construction of homes, artists' sketchbooks, wills and household inventories, children's toys and games, and scrapbooks and journals. Items from individuals famous in American history rest alongside materials from people who led routine lives yet still contributed to the development of America. An extensive microform collection, including copies of material owned by other public repositories and private individuals, supplements the manuscript holdings. Hardcover is un-jacketed.

The Brummer Galleries, Paris and New York
This is the first thorough investigation of the Brummer brothers’ remarkable career as dealers in antiques, curiosities and modernism in Paris and New York over six decades (1906-1964). A dozen specialists aggregate their expertise to explore extant dealer records and museum archives, parse the wide-ranging Brummer stock, and assess how objects were sourced, marketed, labelled, restored, and displayed. The research provides insights into emerging collecting fields as they crystallised, at the crossroads between market and museum. It questions the trope of the tastemaker; the translocation of material culture, and the dealers’ prolific relationships with illustrious collectors, curators, scholars, artists, and fellow dealers.
