Between 1900 and 1930, Curtis traveled the continent and produced a 20-volume set of books that document the stories, languages, and rituals of…

1938. Photography. Ten large format views ranging in size from 15 1/2 x 15 1/2 inches to 19 1/4 x 15 1/2 inches. Most of them are mounted; all are dated 1938 with the exception of one 1940 print. Photographs are all identified in manuscript in an unknown hand. We believe the prints themselves were made in the later 20th century. Most have the initials, in pen, JAC on the verso along with the title repeated from the front. All are in very good condition. Several have very light soiling and a couple shows small nicks along the edge but no damage to the actual print. John Adair spent over 20 years living in and around the Navajo Reservation working as a visual and medical anthropologist. In the 1930's he lived at Many Farms, Arizona working with the Cornell-Navajo Field Health Research Project and in Pine Springs, Arizona while working on the Navajo Filmmaking Project. After serving in World War Two Adair lived at Zuni Pueblo while working on his (unpublished) dissertation on the World…

Philadelphia, PA: Lippincott, Grambo & Co.. Good. 1851-1857. First Edition. Hardcover. Six-volume set bound in later blue cloth with leather labels on spine. Cloth is lightly soiled and specked with numerous small dots of white. Binding is tight on all volumes. Interior generally clean with scattered areas of light foxing. Most tissues for plates are present. This is an ex-library set of first editions. As best as I can tell, EACH and EVERY plate, map and illustration and title page has a library stamp, often smack within the map or plate. If you can get past the issue of the library stamping, this would make an excellent research set for any library. "Henry Schoolcraft worked for years on the history and survey of the Indian tribes of the United States. It was published in six volumes from 1851 to 1857 by J. B. Lippincott & Co. Of Philadelphia. Critics praised its scholarship and valuable content by Schoolcraft, and the meticulous and knowledgeable illustrations. Schoolcraft…
