18803068<p>Ath Belgium: L.&H. Cambier Frères n.d. ca. 1880 .</p><p><br />Rare profusely illustrated trade catalogue from the late 19th century depicting furniture made by L.&H. Cambier Frères of Ath Belgium. <br /><br />The catalogue consists of 107 lithographed plates depicting a wide variety of chairs sofas tables desks beds and more including children's furniture. Plates 108-122 contain decorative borders but no other illustrations presumably so items could be added when Cambier Frères introduced new furniture designs. <br /><br />Apparently it was fine to add items to the catalogue but buyers were advised not to cut out the drawings. "Ne découpez pas les dessins indiquez-nous simplement le numéro de l'objet" it says at the bottom of each plate. <br /><br />Plates 31-33 depict chairs very similar in style to those designed by the German-Austrian cabinet maker Michael Thonet. In fact chair No. 14 on plate 31 is exactly the same as Thonet's iconic No. 14 bistro chair. <br /><br />There's no date given for the catalogue but we estimate ca. 1880 based on the style of furniture. That's also when the brothers Léon and Henri Cambier expanded the Ath factory that their father Emmanuel had founded in 1835. <br /><br />This catalogue is rare with OCLC showing a single institutional holding at the University of Leeds. None in commerce. <br /><br />A wonderful look at European furniture of the late 19th century with numerous detailed illustrations by Breger & Javal Paris. RARE. <br /><br />PHYSICAL DETAILS: Oblong Small Quarto 9.75 x 7 inches; 250 x 178 mm 2 122 pages in original red cloth decorated and lettered in gilt. <br /><br />CONDITION: Small water stain to front cover slight flaring of upper board rubbing and fraying to spine and board edges offsetting to end papers light toning to page extremities.

179231794Philadelphia: s.i. 1792. Very Good. Philadelphia: 1792-93. Single folded sheet 41.5 x 33.5cm; report in manuscript verso filled nearly to completion recto a quarter filled. Signed by Captain David Ross and two other parties; docket dated 1793 signed by Inspector Jeremiah Simmons. Stock exceedingly brittle with shallow chipping long closed tears along folds with old archival mending age-toning and light soiling as well as contemporary wax seal remnants. Overall a Very Good and legible survival. <br /> <br /> Cargo report executed in manuscript and dated November 9th 1792 listing materials shipped from Port-de-Paix Saint-Domingue modern day Haiti to Philadelphia for the firm Dutilh & Wachsmuth. The date places this report in the early days of the Haitian Revolution following the August 1791 enslaved peoples' revolt. The island was a vital source of commercial interests to Philadelphia and the burgeoning revolution was at the forefront of everyone's mind making this voyage and the survival of associated documents all the more significant. Dun cites one contemporary account "'No business is going on here' one letter told 'as every one is taken up with meetings committees and arming themselves.'" Dun p. 484. <br /> <br /> Goods delivered include wine sugar and coffee and were delivered to Dutilh and a handful of others including Captain Ross himself who received a hogshead of molasses. Ross eventually rose to the rank of Continental Navy Lieutenant during the Quasi-War with France and is remembered for commanding the privateer Belvedere guiding her back to Dover after an engagement with a French brig "leaving Belvedere with 50 round shot in her hull and her sails and rigging further shredded." <br /> <br /> References: James Alexander Dun "What Avenues of Commerce Will You Americans Not Explore!
