New York Times book review - c. 1994? edit

{{Resolved}} 

I am trying to locate James I. Robertson, Jr.'s review of Thomas Lowry's 1994 book on the U.S. Civil War, The Story The Soldiers Wouldn't Tell. This was apparently published in the New York Times some time in 1994 or 1995. Unfortunately a search of the NYT web site turns up nothing.

1901 regular session journal for Hawaii Senate edit

{{resolved}} I am trying to find the journal for the 1901 regular session. Here is the 1901 extra session.

KAVEBEAR, the only source I've found is something called LLMC, which seems to require an institutional subscription. Maybe someone else here has access. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 09:44, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Notwithstanding LLMC's title, 1901 Feb, May 1st Terr Leg Reg & Spec, their scanned document is only the extra session that started on May 8. Although scanned from a University of Hawaii original instead of a University of California original, it's otherwise the same as the Google copy above. Worldcat lists five US law libraries that have the senate journal on microfiche; you'll probably have to hit up one of them. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:25, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I'm looking for a Journal of Recreational Mathematics article to complete the citation in Tiling with rectangles:

Problem is, I can't find the publisher Baywood Publishing, and this journal has also stopped publishing as of 2014. I've found that Taylor & Francis have taken some of the publisher's journals, and Sage UK continued the publishing, but I can't find the journal on either site.

US Concert review articles for Amarte Es un Placer Tour edit

{{resolved}} This is a follow-up to my Amarte Es un Placer articles request. The article about the album by Luis Miguel is nearly complete, but I'm having trouble finding articles about his performances on the US concerts online (despite being a very well-known Latin artist). I've only managed to find a few on HighBeam articles, but I need some for his major performances in the US. Here are my requests:

  • "Luis Miguel, Anthony U.S.-bound - San Antonio Express-News" (January 16, 2000)
  • "Luis Miguel captivates REVIEW: The singer delivers an entertaining mix of good music and spectacle." - The Orange County Register (February 6, 2000)

  • "Coors Amphitheatre negotiating for Morales-Espadas bout" - San Diego Union-Tribune, The (CA) (May 24, 2000)

I acknowledge that El Nuevo Herald articles are to find, but it's the only reliable source that I can find that shows he performed in Miami. While I probably won't use every article on the promotion section on the article, I intend to work on Amarte Es Un Placer Tour as well as part of my goal to make Amarte Es un Placer a good topic. There's a chance I might request more articles in the future when I get to the article about the Amarte Es un Placer tour, but for now my main focus is on the section about the tour for the album. I'd appreciate the help as always Erick (talk) 23:01, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ignaz Kolisch: The Life and Chess Career edit

I am writing about a chess problemist Konrad Bayer (1828–1897) and it would be great to have his picture. There was one published in the book Ignaz Kolisch: The Life and Chess Career, page 9 (print ISBN: 978-0-7864-9690-7, ebook ISBN: 978-1-4766-1801-2), but the sign which is a part of the picture (just next to his right hand) and which is probably the name of the picture's author, is illegible, and so it cannot be decided, whether the picture is free to use. Can anyone find a copy of the book where the name of the picture's author would be legible? Thanks. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 02:13, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Jan.Kamenicek: The legend underneath the picture says its from Schachzeitung 1865, page 288, (volume 20) which can be found here. It's not legible either, but perhaps another copy of the original image could be more helpful. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 03:17, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@MrLinkinPark333: Thanks very much! It seems that the author's autograph is given not only in the picture but also beneath it in the 1865 Schachzeitung publication that you have linked here, where it is clearly visible, but the handwriting is illegible :-( --Jan Kameníček (talk) 13:52, 25 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Jan.Kamenicek: Why exactly do you need to know who the author is? Everything published on or before 1865 would be public domain in the United States. That's not sufficient for upload to Commons, but it is for upload to the English Wikipedia. Just upload and mark with {{PD-1923}} and {{Do not move to Commons}}. ~ Rob13Talk 02:45, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I asked here because I hoped somebody could help me here, although I need it for Czech Wikipedia, which uses only pictures from Commons. But thanks for the advice, if the picture is not accepted on Commons, I will upload it to English Wikipedia, since I am plannig to translate the Czech article into English as well. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 13:06, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Jan.Kamenicek: I physically accessed that latest book, but not legible in person either. Sadly, don't think we'll be able to help unless someone finds the same picture in another publication.   ~ Rob13Talk 21:36, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting someone attempt to find an advertisement and/or packaging photo, if there is one, in one or more of the large newspaper resources, for the old patent medicine named "Mrs. Moffat's Shoo-Fly Powders for Drunkenness".

Nah, what I saw was more or less search hits which may have been non-image, etc. I would be curious (even though this is a bit outside the original request) to see anything from "The Akron Beacon Journal / Tuesday, February 7, 1939 - Page 19", the snippet of it which is the only search result from [8] for me might or might not be related to legal action and might have some color, but I'm sure it's not an image. Thanks for your assistance in any case! --joe deckertalk 18:33, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Joe decker, I don't have access to that particular newspaper, but it appears to be from a Walter Winchell on Broadway column that ran that day in multiple newspapers. The relevant passage reads in full: "The real name of a Mickey Finn (in drug-stores) is "Mrs. Moffet's [sic] Shoo-Fly Powders.""
Of possibly greater interest, the L.A. Times had a story on Feb. 15, 1940, about a drugstore owner and clerk who were convicted of selling poisons without proper labels because they sold "Mrs. Moffatt's [sic] Shoo-fly Powders." If you'll email me, I'll reply with a PDF. John M Baker (talk) 18:53, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Will do, thanks! --joe deckertalk 20:32, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Joe decker, the PDF of the LA Times article has been sent.
The powders apparently were sold to drugstores, so probably would not have been advertised to the general public. As the Walter Winchell item shows, very few people had heard of the product. In addition, note that the powders apparently were a Mickey Finn (as indicated by both the Walter Winchell item and the LA Times article) rather than a patent medicine. I don't know if there were trade publications for drugstores in the 1880 - 1940 period, but that would probably be your best bet for finding any advertisements that may exist. John M Baker (talk) 20:48, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Got it, thank you! Indeed, I'll keep looking as you suggest, it's too fun a subject to not keep pushing at.  :) --joe deckertalk 21:38, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Joe decker, I've also sent you a copy of the Winchell column, since it shows that the name of the product was little known and is further evidence that it was a Mickey Finn, not a patent medicine. Apparently the name (Mrs. Moffat's Shoo-Fly Powders for Drunkenness) was intended to convey that it was an effective way to get rid of drunks. Newspapers.com has some other references to "shoo-fly powders" that contained tartar emetic, probably a reference to this product, although they do not mention Mrs. Moffat. No wonder the seller was able to allege an absence of complaints, since the person who dispensed the Mickey Finn didn't care and the unfortunate recipient would not know the source. John M Baker (talk) 23:00, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Joe Decker, I found one: U.S. Patent Office Trademark Application. Small and blurry, but it might put you on the path to finding a better copy. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 15:21, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@KAVEBEAR: I have the book. You are asking for a significant percentage of it. To ensure that no more is copied than is absolutely necessary, please confirm the following:

  • You need page 28 (which is in the middle of the subsection on the Society Islands) through the end of the section on Polynesia on page 48, which will cover the Tuamotu Islands; Marquesas Islands; Mangareva; Easter Island, Samoa; Tonga; Cook Islands; Futuna, Pukapuka, and Tongareva; New Zealand; and the section summary. (Seven of the pages from 28 through 46 contain images. I'll do my best with them, but be warned that the quality is not great in the original.)
  • You need page 49, which is the first page of the section on Micronesia.
  • You need pages 76 through 91 (which covers the conclusion, the one-page appendix on uses of dogs' teeth, and the references cited).
  • To put it another way, you do not need any of the material about Hawaii, the first half of the subsection about the Society Islands, any part of the section on Micronesia except its first page, any part of the section on Melanesia, or any part of the section on Australia.

Hi I am working in swwiki and have done most of the astronomic entries there (category astronomy on swwiki). It looks to me that there was only one researcher who collected traditional terminology and I can not get thru to the publications.

Can anybody help me? That is Jan Knappert (+2005) and his most promising works seems to be
