Extract from: The Graphic (London) xiii.15 (9 April 1881) 357 ¶ A CHARMING NINETEENTH-CENTURY BEACH-SCENE taken at the southern end of Monmouth Beach in New Jersey, about ten miles south of Sandy Hook. The inset shows a group of women playing croquet on the lawn of the Sea Shore Cottage in Atlanticville (North Long Branch) nearby: This establishment had been opened three years earlier by Margaret Cook (Durbin) Harper (1830-1886), as "a Summer Resort for the young working women of New York, who are in need of rest and recreation, with but a limited time to spare and insufficient means to pay the charges at the usual resorts". Mrs Harper was married to Fletcher Harper Jr, of Harper & Brothers, publishers, New York. ¶ SCARCE: No example of this print is preserved in the Monmouth Beach Cultural Center. ||| Collation: One-half leaf (188 x 293 mm). Wood-engraving 148 x 223 mm (with circular inset, diameter 87 mm) signed "H. Harral sc." in the block lower right. Condition: Slight stain lower margin; withal a very good copy, good margins. Reference: See the Margaret Cook (Durbin) Harper papers 1878-1885, University of Rochester (New York) manuscript register no. D.57. .

Sobre Jay Dillon Rare Books + Manuscripts
Jay Dillon Rare Books + Manuscripts is a private, research-intensive rare-book dealer of forty years' experience in and around New York, specialized in exceptional books, manuscripts, and cultural property. Jay Dillon has been responsible for selling or appraising more than $100 million worth of books and manuscripts spanning some three thousand years. In 1989 Jay Dillon was the editor and principal author of a richly annotated catalogue that was hailed in the English press as one of the ten best books -- of any kind -- published that year. In 1994 he was invited to narrate the Discovery Channel program on the history of monopoly; and four years later he was consulted by the Zapruder family in connection with their famous film of the assassination of President Kennedy -- which, as it turned out, Mr Dillon valued more accurately than any other appraiser. The firm maintains a wide and productive network of relationships both among private collectors and in the trade; and we are currently engaged in building a number of outstanding private collections for our clients. Books and manuscripts offered to the public are mainly duplicates from our clients' libraries, or otherwise surplus to their needs. Our appraisal services include formal appraisals for insurance, estate-settlement, and tax purposes. For details please contact Dillonbook@AOL.com.
