Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. HOOVER, Herbert. 4 items, two from the WHITE HOUSE library, one from H.L. Mencken. (1) Address of Mr. Herbert Hoover, Republican Nominee for President. Delivered at Newark, N.J. September 17, 1928. 9"x6". 15 sheets, printed on one side only, staple-bound at upper left. *This in my opinion are proof sheets for the full publication, with text on both sides and side-stapled. (2) "Inaugural Address of Herbert Hoover, President of the United States. Delivered at the National Capitol, Washington D.C., March 4, 1929. 9"x 6". 11pp. Original wrappers, side-stapled. From the WHITE HOUSE Library, transferred from there on 6 July 1934, early in the first term of FDR. I don't know if everything from Hoover's WH library was sent away, or just, um, selected bits. But it is certainly interesting and a little poetic about the FDR White House getting rid of this (and the following) item, given the extended snub given FDR by HH, and then the subsequent silence of the Sphinx from Hyde Park, who refused HH's memorandum of suggestions on curing the Depression. (3) "Inaugural Address of Herbert Hoover, President of the United States. Delivered at the National Capitol, Washington D.C., March 4, 1929." 11 sheets, printed on one side only. Original wrappers. This is an ADVANCED PRINTING of the speech, and is stamped "CONFIDENTIAL" with a warning on the use of the content, banned until the speech was actually given. Partially disbound, with numerous chips. GOOD copy, only. This is from the WHITE HOUSE LIBRARY, transferred 9 July 1934. Provenance: White House Library to the Library of Congress. All three have the small (10mm) "LC" perforated stamp on front wrapper and the LC rubber stamp on rear wrapper. (4) "Address of Acceptance of the Republican Nomination for President", delivered at Stanford University, August 11, 1928. 13pp, printed on one side only. ADVANCED reading copy, stamped "Confidential". Also this was the copy of HL Mencken, with about 10 penciled underlinings. This was sent to the Library of Congress in 1929. Original wrappers. VG copy.

413 x 285 mm. (16 1/4 x 11 1/8"). Double column, 47 lines of text in a pleasing early gothic hand. One two-line initial "M" in red. With a few lines of marginal notes in a later (16th century?) hand. âProbably lacking a line or two at the head as well as half of one column, scattered light stains with a few darker stains in one corner (touching the text, but still legible), scattered, small wormholes, one half-inch hole affecting a few words of text, and yet a remarkably clean leaf, the remaining text entirely legible. The text here, in a very good hand, is on the death of Saint Martin of Tours. While it is more likely from a Lectionary with the reading for Martinmas (November 11), it could be from a separate copy of Sulpicius. The fourth century founder of French monasticism, Martin of Tours is celebrated as the Soloman of shawls. One of the most beloved episodes of his early life is a the tale that demonstrates the sensible limits of charity: instead of heedlessly surrendering his cloak to a shivering beggar he encounters, he sagely divides it in two, so that both he and the object of his benevolence will be warm. The script here has many lingering features of Carolingian minuscule, and this fact, plus the grand size of the leaf, combine to give it very considerable antique beauty.
