Hardcover. Presumed first edition/first printing. viii, 159 p. 23 cm. Notes. "The lectures.were delivered in February and March, 1942, at Cornell university."--Pref. Bibliographical references included in "Notes" (p. 151-159) Contents: Preface, by E. E. Day. --The impact of war on the Constitution, by R. E. Cushman. --The impact of war on American labor, by R. E. Montgomery. --The United States and the British empire: past and present, by C. W. de Kiewiet. --A reappraisal of. the Far Eastern Policy of the United States; Philip Mosely, The United States and the Balance of Power; and Herbert Briggs, The United States and Post-war International Organization. From an appreciation found on line for Philip Mosely: "Mosely landed at Cornell University in 1936. He immediately demonstrated entrepreneurial zeal, winning a Rockefeller Foundation grant to expand Russian studies and serving as secretary of the Committee on Slavic Studies of the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS). Over the next decade, Mosely would help steer Rockefeller, SSRC, and ACLS work toward the new enterprise of area studies. The transformation of American academic life during World War II would turn Mosely (and many other ambitious and talented scholars) from a grant recipient into a grant-maker, and from a diplomatic historian into a diplomat." From an on-line posting: "Herbert Whittaker Briggs was a prominent figure in the field of International Law where he made important contributions as a scholar and educator and served on the United Nations International Law Commission. Born in Wilmington, Delaware, in 1900, Briggs was one of a small group of American international lawyers in the twentieth century who did not hold a law degree. He received an A.B. from West Virginia University in Morgan-town, West Virginia, in 1921 and a Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1925. Over the next four years, he studied international law in Brussels, Belgium, and at the Hague Academy of International Law; served as a research associate at the Foreign Policy Association; and taught at Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio, and at Johns Hopkins. In 1929, he joined the faculty at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, where he remained until his retirement in 1969. At Cornell, Briggs taught international law, international organization, and international politics as a member of both the Department of Government and the law faculty. Briggs had a distinguished career as a scholar and editor. His best-known work was The Law of Nations: Cases, Documents and Notes (first published in 1938), which became a standard text in international law courses throughout the country. In addition, he was the author of The Doctrine of Continuous Voyage (1926), The International Law Commission (1965), two sets of lectures at the Hague Academy, and more than eighty articles on international law topics. Throughout most of his career, Briggs was closely associated with the American Journal of International Law, serving on the journal's board of editors from 1939 until his death and as editor in chief from 1955 to 1962. He was president of the American Society of International Law in 1959 and 1960. In addition to his work as an educator and scholar, Briggs also had an active career as an international lawyer. From 1962 to 1966, he was a member of the United Nations International Law Commission. In 1968, he was named to the U.S. delegation to the Vienna Conference on the Law of Treaties. In addition, he served as counsel for Honduras, Spain, and Libya in four cases before the International Court of Justice. He also served as counsel for Canada and Chile in international arbitral proceedings. In 1975, he was one of five persons appointed by the governments of Great Britain and France to serve as a court of Arbitration to delimit a portion of the continental shelf in the English Channel. Commenting on Brigg's career, Judge Stephen M. Schwebel of the International Court of Justice said that in all these activities "he was very m. …

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. The Royal Tailors, Chicago and New York. Salesman's sample book. 56 pp. Thick paper with minor foxing, markings, tears, and rubbing. Elephant folio, beautifully restored to its original state by Felton Bookbinding Ltd. 54.5 × 42 cm. Bound in black pebbled cloth with red signet. Colour illustration of tiger on the upper board. Endpapers with brown tiger design; an oval portrait of Joseph Vehon (1834-1918), the founder of the clothing manufacturing company, on the front free endpaper. 1920-1. Joseph Vehon, president of the Royal Tailors, Chicago pioneer and originator of the "money back" and "tailor to the trade" system, was born in Poland. He immigrated to the United States penniless at the age of 18. He sold merchandise in New York state. Arriving in Chicago in 1861, he opened Vehon Bros. & Eiger at Monroe and Clark streets, but the depression after the Civil War forced the closure of his men's clothing store. He moved to Monticello, Iowa, in 1870 where he originated the "money back if not satisfied" system of selling clothing. Returning to Chicago in 1886, he opened a store at Halsted and Mark streets. In 1906 he constructed a new building for his thriving business at Polk and La Salle streets. His garment business for men's customized fashions employed over two thousand tailors in Chicago and New York with clothing sold in 10,000 cities and towns across America. After his death his son, Morris (1876-1950), and daughter, Emma, carried on the family business. Each leaf has a colour illustration of men's apparel or a tailor (text below the illustrations informing shoppers of high quality in the merchandise, quick delivery, and customer satisfaction) with fabric samples on the versos of the leaves. 236 samples, 2 missing (on pp. 24 and 36). Most of the drawings are by unknown artists. Two of the identified artists are James Montgomery Flagg and W.F. Werners. James Montgomery Flagg, W.F. Werners & Others (illustrator).…

The seven items in good condition, on lightly-aged and worn paper. With stamps of the Royal Society of Arts. The letter to Perry is a typed report of 2pp., folio, and more heavily worn than the rest of the correspondence. It is dated 11 August 1936, and discusses 'schemes similar to Sandersons [.] in which a firm offers work experience as part of a course taken by full-time students not previously employed in industry' and 'part-time release'. He discusses the only two cases of 'works experience': the first at Keighley with Messrs Stapley's, and the second between Messrs Courtaulds and the Central School of Arts and Crafts. There are also references to 'Sir Thomas Barlow who took two students of Salford School of Art into his works', Stourbridge, Pick, Vidgen-Jenks, Leicester, and Hull College. Luckhurst's three TLsS, two ALsS and ANS (totalling 4pp., 4to; 2pp., 12mo) continue the same theme in relation to the Society's business, with references to the Keighley Art School, 'the unrevised report of Miss Richardson's talk', the Industrial Art Bursaries Board, 'the Distribution of Diplomas by the Duke of Gloucester', and 'the sub-committee which is to administer the Travelling Bursary for a teacher of art generously provided by Mr. Sanderson'. …
