Occasional List 15: A Distinctively New Feature in Cooked Compressed Canned Meat
Or, Prolegomena to the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. This illustrated online-only list collects 31 items largely dealing with the myriad manifold attractions of unregulated medicine or hinting in some way at the perils of food adulteration, with forays into later questions of public health or popular medical reform.
Occasional List 14: This is Valuable Information An online-only illustrated catalog, 21 interesting and uncommon items relating in some way to American religious thought, from a scarce early Brooklyn anti-Catholic pamphlet to prophetic revelation of the secret pact made by the first President Bush with UFO demons.

Occasional List 13: People and Places 25 recent arrivals that embody some idea of interesting people or remarkable places. The people range from America’s foremost early lion tamer to a stalwart Philadelphia fireman, or from an early two-fisted Portland free-thought divorce lawyer to a 19th century railroad man and proto-Gershon Legman. The places cover such far-flung locales as homes for disabled Civil War veterans to the Delaware river set ablaze by an inventor in hopes of pecuniary gain, or from the biblical beauties of the commercial quarter of Hobart, Oklahoma to the distant missionary presses of Calcutta and New Zealand. (Even the romance of backwoods “Pittburgo” in 1761 is conjured up in a curious fictitious imprint.)
