1890List1326Costa Rica 1890. Albumen photographs 9 x 7 ½ inches on larger mounts with credits to Rudd y Paynter and the Paynter Bros. Near Fine. H.N. Rudd and the Paynter Brothers Richard and John were photographers who were active in Costa Rica in the 1890s operating out of San Jose. Five of these views show the Rudd y Paynter mark on versos with their address at the Parque Central in San Jose. The Paynters were from the United States arriving in 1874 and first establishing Rudd y Paynter out of a shop in the Parque Central where they also sold marble and art objects. In 1895 the studio changed its name to Paynter Bros. <br /> <br /> Collected here are nine scarce albumen views of Costa Rica from the 1890s. Five of them document a trip up Mt. Turrialba these bear the Rudd y Paynter mark. Of the other other four one image shows a building likely in San Jose with a gathered crowd; one shows a very striking mural and is captured “Corpus Christi / Cartaga Costa Rica June 4 / 96 this shows no photographers mars though the size and format are identical to the others and we presume the photographers to be the Paynter brothers; One shows industrial coffee machinery on “El Canada†the last shows a group of people in front of the bridge over the Rio Grande with a platform showing the markings of the Hamlin Car and Wheel Company of Catwissa PA. The group with the exception of the Corpus Christi image are mounted on uniform heavy cardstock mounts with gilt edges and remain in particularly fine condition with excellent contrast and some light wear to mounts. Overall a scarce group documenting Costa Rica at a time when few photographers operated. unknown

1885ABC_488551885. Contemporary gold-tooled dark purple quarter morocco brownish-purple pebble-grain cloth sides with a paper label "3" mounted on the front. Oblong ca. 38 x 27.5 cm. With 20 albumen prints 43 plates engraved and lithographed and 3 drawings. Remarkable album documenting the travels of HMS Calliope 1837-1883 a British warship in the first few years after her launch. The ship first sailed to Madeira and Tenerife after which she crossed the Atlantic Ocean to visit various harbour cities in Brazil Argentina Uruguay and Chile. Many of the illustrations and photographs include handwritten annotations about the ship's journey with the exact dates of when she arrived where. As such the album was likely compiled by someone who sailed on the ship during these years possibly a crew member. The album contains photographs drawings and plates relating to the places the Calliope visited between 1838-1840. It starts with photographs of Madeira and Tenerife like the Loo Rock in the harbour of Madeira locals carrying a tourist down the Pico Grande the town of Güímar in Tenerife and an age-old Dragon Tree. As the ship's next destination was Brazil the album contains a number of photographs and illustrations of Rio de Janeiro as well as a drawing of a picnic at the summit of the Corcovado. The Calliope then sailed to Buenos Aires and Santa Fe arriving in August 1838. This part of the album contains a drawing of a gaucho and 6 beautiful photographs by Samuel Boote 1844-1921 one of the most important photographers working in Argentina in the 19th century. His work shows the interior and exterior of the St. Felicitas Church in Santa Fe as well as daily life in this city. The ship then carried the British ambassador from Argentina to Montevideo arriving in June 1839 before continuing to Valparaíso. The final pages of the album contain a map of Montevideo views of Valparaíso and the mountains nearby and a drawing of a bridge.The plates in the album were taken from other works such as Journal of a voyage to Brazil 1824 by Maria Graham and A history of the Brazil 1821 by James Henderson. The photographs were taken in the 1880s which means the album must have been compiled several decades after this particular voyage of the Calliope. However as some of the annotations mention that a location looked different on the plate than when the Calliope arrived the album must have been compiled by a crew member.The Calliope sailed to China after the visit to Valparaíso to serve in the First Anglo-Chinese War 1839-1842. After she sailed to New Zealand and primarily operated in that region until she was converted into a floating chapel in 1855 and deconstructed in 1883. With the yellow bookseller's label of "A & N.C.S.Ld Stationery Dept. 105 Victoria St. S.W." mounted on the back pastedown. The leaves and plates are somewhat foxed likely lacking a plate or drawing on the recto of leaf 16. Otherwise in good condition. hardcover
1698H4GD9LIIY5STPadova: Typographia Seminaria 1698. Blind-tooled vellum ca. 1800 reusing and retooling vellum from a slightly earlier blind-tooled binding sewn on 6 double cords each board with a large scrollwork centrepiece over traces of the old one in a panel design made of fillets and corner pieces with the title finely lettered in pen and ink in the 2nd of 7 compartments the old title still faintly visible underneath it and the old volume number VIII faintly visible in the 3rd compartment. Folio 35.5 x 25 cm. With 2 title pages 1 primary and 4 secondary divisional titles in volume 1 more than a dozen woodcut head- and tailpieces plus numerous repeats and dozens of woodcut decorated initials about 9 series plus numerous repeats. Set in roman italic and Arabic types 3 sizes of Arabic with incidental Greek and Hebrew. 2 volumes bound as 1. The first scholarly printed Quran prepared by the anti-Islamic Catholic Ludovico Marracci with a much more accurate Arabic text than any previously printed and the first accurate Latin translation also including extensive notes based on the Islamic commentaries as well as the editor's extensive "refutations" of each sutra. Each sura is given first in Arabic then in Latin translation followed by notes and then the refutation. The entire first volume of about 430 pages is taken up with preliminary matter including a 24-page life of Muhammad one of the first detailed biographies ever printed and again more accurate than its predecessors an 8-page profession of faith with the Arabic and Latin in parallel columns and additional commentaries and introductory matter. The fact that this edition was produced explicitly as an attempt to refute the views of Islam has naturally led Islamic scholars to dismiss it but both the Arabic text and the Latin translation were far better than any previously printed and had no serious rival until the Leipzig edition of 1834. The commentaries also made a great deal of Islamic scholarship available to a European audience for the first time and both the Arabic and the Latin text influenced nearly every edition for the next 150 years.With two bookplates and an occasional early manuscript note and a few letters or numbers inscribed in the foot margin of one leaf. With a tear running into the text of one leaf repaired but otherwise in very good condition. With generous margins. The boards are slightly bowed and there is a small tear repaired at the foot of the spine. A ground-breaking work of Quranic scholarship a valuable source for the study of the Quran and an essential source for European views of Islam.l Cat. Bibl. A.-R.

196787336Santiago: Editorial Cooperativa Lambda 1967. First Edition. Octavo 24cm. Coated card wrappers with French flaps; unpaginated 193pp; illus. Very light wear to covers; internally complete and clean but for a few faint pencil marginal markings by the previous owner the noted poet and translator Nathaniel Tarn. Near Fine. Text entirely in Spanish.<br /> <br /> A collaborative book-length work combining poetry and conceptual imagery; published anonymously but compiled and edited primarily by Chilean avant-garde poet Godofredo Iommi. "Amereida" a composite neologism for "American Aeneid" is a conceptual chronicle of a literal cross-country trek from Tierra del Fuego to Southern Bolivia undertaken in 1965 by a group of like-minded poets architects designers philosophers and artists including Iommi 1925-2001 the architect Alberto Cruz 1917-2013 sculptor Claudio Girola 1923-1994 French philosopher François Fédier 1935-2021 and numerous others. Many of the participants in this first "Travesia Amereida" had originally coalesced around the surrealist group in post-war Paris and were later responsible for modernizing the faculty and curriculum of the College of Architecture at the Universidad Católico de Valparaíso. In 1971 the group founded an intentional community the "Ciudad Abierta" "Open City" in Ritoque Chile some kilometers southwest of Valparaíso; the community is still in existence and the tradition of the "Travesias" continues with annual journeys through the South American wilderness that become stages for performance poetry readings and art installations. La Ciudad Abierta quoting the editorial introduction to the poem in the Oxford Book of Latin American Poetry ".is probably the only site in the world where architecture is conceived as an outgrowth of poetry" OBLAP p.362ff. The current volume nominally the community's founding document is notoriously scarce almost never encountered in commerce; OCLC locates only about a dozen holdings worldwide 8 in North America.
