Bivalve mollusk shells were collected in 2350 m depth in the Beaufort Sea, Arctic Ocean off northern Alaska. Initial identification suggested the specimens were a member of the bivalve family Thyasiridae, but no known eastern Pacific or Arctic living or fossil thyasirid resembled these deep-water specimens. Comparisons were made with the type of the genera Maorithyas Fleming, 1950, Spinaxinus Oliver & Holmes, 2006, Axinus Sowerby, 1821, and Parathyasira Iredale, 1930. We determined the Beaufort Sea species represents a new genus, herein described as Wallerconcha. These specimens also represent a new species, herein named Wallerconcha sarae. These new taxa are compared with known modern and fossil genera and species of thyasirds. 16 pp., 4 pls, 2 figs, gr. 8.

Stated First Edition, But Actually First American Edition. Fine In Near Fine Dust Jacket Priced $6.00. Reason Demands That Science Be Used To Understand And Improve Society And In Particular Its Institutions And Government; But The Demand Is Unreasonable, As Science Has Boundless Universal Audience And Participation And Review And Analysis And Criticism Subject To Explicit Standards, Whereas Society Does Not- Its Standards Are Vaguely Philosophical But Essentially Clan-Specific And Religious. To The Everlasting Surprise Of Society, Its Standards Are Occasionally Revised By Popular Sentiment When Experience, Including Some Consideration Of Science, Is Overwhelmingly Indicative Of Its Failings. The Academicians Here Assert Some Scientific Expertise In General, Which Is Not The Way Scientific Expertise Works In Social Concerns.

Birmingham Post clipping (10.02.1978) 'The family fired with enthusiasm,' about the Ruskin Pottery, laid in. Fine. A gorgeous first edition copy of L. B. Powell's illustrated memoir (and memorial) of Ruskin Pottery's master potter, Howson Taylor, printed under the direction of master printer Leonard Jay at the City of Birmingham School of Printing, Central School of Arts and Crafts, with student and staff collaboration, including "Compositors' work by boys in the pre-apprentice classes"; from the library of Jay's friends, the Birmingham-based artists Ernest and Catherine Hill, with their supplied cream paper dust jacket (nicked). The Ruskin Pottery was founded in 1898 by William Howson Taylor's father, Edward R. Taylor, who was headmaster of Birmingham School of Art. Howson Taylor (1876-1935), and the pottery, were renowned for their "remarkable glazes". The pottery closed in July 1935, when Taylor retired (and died in the September); the formulae for the glazes and all the pottery documentation were destroyed to prevent reproductions. Master printer-craftsman and pioneer of printing education, Leonard Jay (1888-1963) came from a family "steeped in printing". An Artisan Art Scholarship allowed Jay to attend the London County Council Central School of Arts and Crafts, Holborn from 1909, where "he enrolled on the newly established typography evening classes run by the printer-scholar John Henry Mason" and in 1912 was appointed Mason's first assistant instructor. Diverging from his mentor's focus on traditional hand-processes, Jay "understood if technical education was to succeed it had to work with existing trade practices," and introduced students to commercial printing, demonstrating "that quality bookwork could be produced using modern machinery" (ODNB). In 1925 Jay was appointed the first head of the Birmingham School of Printing, "the largest centre of printing outside London," where he would remain until his retirement in 1953. "Through an innovative publishing programme, Jay provided all students with the opportunity to produce at least one piece of work of great distinction of which they could be justly proud" and under his direction around 150 (the number varies) finely printed books and pamphlets, including this one, were produced by the Department's students and staff. A friend of Jay's, Ernest F. Hill, RBSA (1873-1960) was a British painter, arts educator and Vice President of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists (RSBA). An early Newlyn group member, he worked primarily in watercolour, favouring British landscape and coastal scenes; he exhibited at the Royal Academy until 1946, Royal Institute of Oil Painters, but his paintings were most often hung in Birmingham (CAI, 2021). Hill was Headmaster of the prestigious Bournville School of Art and Crafts, and was well-connected in regional cultural networks, as well as with the Cadbury family. Less in known of Catherine Hill, who was a watercolour artist, print maker and book binder. Their library reflected these interests, featuring numerous arts and crafts, typographical and fine press books, often in excellent condition, thanks to the addition of hand-marbled, clear or paper wrappers (as here).
