MILITARY EQUIPMENTS And UNIFORMS. B. Pasquale & Sons. Catalogue 50. Established in 1856 by Trade Catalogue on Tavistock Books

One of the personal by-products of the COVID-19 pandemic experience was the realization that I, after 33 years in the antiquarian book trade, no longer wish to man an open shop for 8 hours a day. Going forward, I intend to pursue a semi-retired lifestyle, and in keeping with this philosophy, have transitioned to an on-line only business model.

And concomitant with this new business model, this website is open 24/7 and any order placed will [normally] ship within 3 business days, if not sooner.

Kind regards,

MILITARY EQUIPMENTS And UNIFORMS. B. Pasquale & Sons. Catalogue 50. Established in 1856.

[Trade Catalogue].

San Francisco: [1895]. Ca 1895. 79, [1] pp. Tall 8vo. 10-1/8" x 6-7/8". Green cloth spine over elaborately lithographed glossy stock covers. Now housed in an archival mylar sleeve. Wear, soiling & chipping to covers. About Very Good. Item #47972

We find OCLC recording one institutional holding, the Huntington, who dates the catalogue as 1888, however, on page 14, advertising "New Regulation Forage Cap Badges", we find the statement, "Adopted by United States Army April 12, 1895 ..." so we presume the catalogue issued shortly thereafter to accommodate the need to meet this new uniform requirement.

Rare.

Price: $495.00
