21289. [Life-Saving Station, New Jersey]

21289. [Life-Saving Station, New Jersey] THE NEWBURGH REGISTER ALMANAC FOR 1881. H. P. Kimber & Co., Newburgh, NY. 1880. 44p. Soft wraps. Typical almanac of the day includes all forms of date and astrological information. Of particular interest are the wonderful full page engraved views of scenery across the country and particularly a half-page view of an extremely early life-saving station on the New Jersey coast. With the engraving is a half-page article describing this new service, its evolution from the Massachusetts Humane Society, staffing and more. A wonderful early view, the first I have ever seen of this style station. Clean, crisp, unusually good condition. (F-). $46.
