Hope not!
This is an assemblage of unusual and offbeat books, documents, and manuscripts relating (mostly) to the sea and its history. Highlights include a couple of WW I Navy recruiting posters (by Charles Dana Gibson and Gordon Grant), a rare map of Newfoundland, some early 18th century New England manuscript material, a bound collection of photographic sales catalogs of ethnographic material from around the world, and a letter sheet featuring Ann Thornton, female marine. Lowlights are a small collection of 19th century suicide related material.
