Nine reset sheets in the Aldine Hypnerotomachia Poliphili (1499)
No full textThe article takes as its starting point a well-known article by Philip Hofer in 1932, which described the presence in a copy of the 1499 “Hypnerotomachia Poliphili” of five sheets produced with a different setting of type. Due to the fact that the said copy at the time belonged to a private collector, the explanation given by Hofer, that these sheets were “cancellanda”, or a first version of the text, later substituted, has not been challenged. The discovery of other copies containing such sheets, of which nine are now known, and the re-emergence of the copy described by Hofer in the library of Princeton University, allow a more precise bibliographical analysis. As is shown by damage to the woodcut illustrations, these sheets belong to a later setting, probably made shortly after the original printing, in order to make up for short-falls in the press-run. There follows a detailed description of the reprinted sheets and a list of the copies in which they have so far been found

The influence of cellular source on periodontal regeneration using calcium phosphate coated polycaprolactone scaffold supported cell sheets
No full textCell-based therapy is considered a promising approach to achieving predictable periodontal regeneration. In this study, the regenerative potential of cell sheets derived from different parts of the periodontium (gingival connective tissue, alveolar bone and periodontal ligament) were investigated in an athymic rat periodontal defect model. Periodontal ligament (PDLC), alveolar bone (ABC) and gingival margin-derived cells (GMC) were obtained from human donors. The osteogenic potential of the primary cultures was demonstrated in vitro. Cell sheets supported by a calcium phosphate coated melt electrospun polycaprolactone (CaP-PCL) scaffold were transplanted to denuded root surfaces in surgically created periodontal defects, and allowed to heal for 1 and 4 weeks. The CaP-PCL scaffold alone was able to promote alveolar bone formation within the defect after 4 weeks. The addition of ABC and PDLC sheets resulted in significant periodontal attachment formation. The GMC sheets did not promote periodontal regeneration on the root surface and inhibited bone formation within the CaP-PCL scaffold. In conclusion, the combination of either PDLC or ABC sheets with a CaP-PCL scaffold could promote periodontal regeneration, but ABC sheets were not as effective as PDLC sheets in promoting new attachment formation.

Helen Anthony letter regarding the Great Seattle Fire, June 8, 1889
No full textFerdinand Anthony (1836-1919) immigrated to the U. S. from Munich, Bavaria in 1862, and came to Seattle in 1882. He established the city's first book bindery, located in the Frye Opera House at First Avenue and Marion Street in downtown Seattle. Anthony's business was destroyed on June 6, 1889, when the Great Fire swept through downtown Seattle, destroying nearly the entire business district and several brick buildings, including the Opera House.
In this letter to her uncle in Germany, Ferdinand Anthony's daughter Helen, about 14 years old at the time, describes her experience of the Great Seattle Fire. Her letter recounts her father's efforts to save his bindery; the destruction of the downtown area; the rebuilding which began a few days later; and her father's worries about the future of his business.
Mr. Anthony did rebuild his shop, initially moving around among locations before establishing a permanent shop in 1905 at 1522 Seventh Avenue, behind the home he had built for his family in 1882. After Mr. Anthony died his son, Robert, ran the business. Both buildings were torn down in 1964 to make way for a new building.Caption information sources: The Seattle Sunday Times, September 7, 1958, p. 144; The Seattle Daily Times, April 9, 1964, p. 20.1 correspondence (2 sheets): 7.75 x 10 in. folded to 7.75 x 5 in
