004286Brussels. Paper folder. Very Good Plus. N.d. circa 1910. 36 by 22 cm. Folio of eight pochoir illustrations all depicting elegantly appointed women decked in furs. The women are all on the move or active in some way -- these are illustrations meant to show how the garments work in their lifestyle. There is nothing static about the pictures. They bring to mind the breezy boulevard depictions of artists such as Sem with the difference that these portraits aren't caricatures. The fashions hark from a period in which beauty and elegance was the hallmark of high fashion while some of the shackles imposed by fashion were being loosened -- women could go out in the world on their own to a degree seldom the case a generation earlier. Jean Droit was a French and Belgian artist and writer who excelled at book illustration. He is better known for his depictions of wartime and warfare and he incidentally played an instrumental role in the scouting movement. This collection produced early in his prolific career is scarce -- we have been able to locate no other copies -- and each of the plates would be very appealing matted framed and hung on a wall. unknown

"Of all the intricate learning in which the English laws of property are involved there is scarcely any more absolute or yet more necessary to be attended to by the Profession than the doctrine of contingent estates. This it is presumed the experience of every gentleman conversant in that branch of the profession which is the immediate province of the conveyancer can sufficiently testify.

185695332London: Published by the Author Sold by Mann Nephews 39 Cornhill 1856. 1856. Fair. - Octavo 8-1/2 inches high by 5-5/8 inches wide.

The covers are rubbed and stained with wear to the leather corners.

The front hinge is cracked and the front endpaper is lacking. The pages are slightly toned with occasional stains. Several page corners are creased. Pencil marks in the margins of several pages serving to highlight paragraphs were possibly made by the author himself or his business partner. <p>Fourth edition.<p>An important association copy from the library of Laing & Campbell inscribed in ink "Laing & Campbell / Mincing Lane / July 1856" on the front blank with the firm's blind-stamp reading "Laing & Campbell / 39 Mincing Lane London" stamped on the rear endpaper the front blank and at the top of the frontispiece as well as in the margins of a few other pages.<p>Although the preface to this fourth edition is dated August 7 1856 the inscription would imply that Laing and Campbell received a pre-publication copy in July of that year.<p>Laing & Campbell were in possession of financial warrants which had been given to them by Cole as tangible securities valued at 18000 pounds. As it turned out many of these warrants were spurious and worthless. Cole together with Davidson & Gordon had so substantially falsified the value of his company that when the business went bankrupt many of the warrants issued to secure the value of the business were seen to be fraudulent and those that were legitimate covered but a minute fraction of the firm's debt. Laing and Campbell were colonial brokers who were in possession of several of these warrants for spelter & Swedish steel which Cole Davidson & Gordon had offered as securities.<p>In a book review published in the June 7 1856 issue of the Economist the writer states: "The Great City Frauds of Cole Davidson and Gordon have been very fully and ably exposed by Seton Laing. in a book just published by him. In order to make the designs of Mr Cole and his coadjusters clear a plan is given of the small wharf occupied by him called Hagen's wharf interposed between two bonded warehouses which Mr Cole seems to have designedly acquired for his long-concocted frauds." The reviewer for the Standard expresses a much different opinion in his article published on June 12 1856: ".had the object of the writer been one to expose fraudulent practices he would have carried us entirely with him; but inasmuch as he allowed himself to be actuated by strong and vindictive feelings we have no hesitation in stating that he has completely failed in producing the effect which he is so anxious to make the public believe he had in view when he commenced the task which he has now brought to a conclusion."

New. $495. "Thomas Ashe published in 1614 the first detailed subject-matter index of the Year Books statutes and early treatises and nominate case reports of English common law. For more than a century English lawyers had been able to use printed abridgements that lumped the growing body of English case law under 251 263 or 394 headings in alphabetical order. This still left them searching among what might be hundreds of case excerpts under a single heading. Ashe's two-volume work which he titled Promptuarie ou Repertory Generall de les Annales listed or cross-referenced citations to these legal sources not only under 759 headings but also under at least 22527 subheadings. No one had previously dissected the whole of English common law in such a thorough orderly manner. Ashe produced a magnificent finding aid for England's early common law. He cited Year Book cases that had been categorized in none of the abridgements. But because he did not provide excerpts from his sources under his thousands of topical headings and subheadings only citations and because the wording of his subheadings avoided definitive statements of law Ashe and his Promptuarie have been far less well known than the earlier and later abridgements and the digests and legal encyclopedias that have succeeded them." --David J. Seipp Introduction III. unknown
