192058739Philadelphia PA: The Philadelphia MuseumsCommercial Museum of Philadelphia Exhibits Bureau ca. 1920. Archive of 52 mounted silver gelatin photographs sized 7 x 9 in. mounted on 9.75 x 12 in. gray studio board mounts all imprinted w/ white lettering at lower right corners and captions below images a few have photographer’s original imprints w/in the negative and printed explanatory text on light gray versos minor edgewear rubbing wear to some corners minor bowing to mounts as usual a few boards w/ edgewear wear at corners 1 photo w/ soiling still a VG group of photos w/all retaining bright strong contrast. This archive serves as an excellent surviving visual aid from the “Miniature Museum†exhibits created by the Commercial Museum of Philadelphia before and after World War I in order to promote foreign trade and develop international commerce for U.S. products. Sponsored by manufacturers suppliers and many different companies who would supply products to the Commercial Museum these interactive exhibits were intended to illustrate not only useful products of other countries and the advantage for trade in the U.S. but also to underlie important facts of modern industry. Dispatched for free these sample exhibits contained a cupboard at the base in which an educator or lecturer could place photographs and additional exhibits which would revolve on loan for assorted subjects to be taught. The photographs preserved here include those used originally with such trays as the “Beverages; Brush Fiber; Carbon; Coconut; Cotton; Cow; Flax; Gums & Resins; Iron; Ores & Metals; Rice; Rope Fiber; Rubber; Silk; Spice; Sugar & Wheat.†For instance this unknown instructor ordered for the “Beverages Drawer Exhibit†the photographs “Picking Tea†in Japan “Tea Factory†in Ceylon “Tea Ships†in Formosa Taiwan or “Picking Coffee†in Brazil which would have then been used with a series of large folding or rolling maps to be displayed as part of a multi-media presentation. As the cases were heavy and fragile these were sent out in place and further education materials would be dispatched to enhance their use but unfortunately classroom usage resulted in frequent lost and damaged photographs. Also present here are photos for “Camels Carrying Charcoal†into Constantinople Turkey; “Cutting Bananas†in Jamaica; “Cocoanut Plantation†& “Making Cocoanut Oil†in Ceylon; or the “Iron Furnace†in Hankow China or “Rope Factory†in Hong Kong. Two of the photos for Mexico include one still retaining the original caption for Charles Betts Waite of a smelter operation in Aguascalientes Mexico and another of the Sirena Mine in Guanajuato Mexico with the photographer’s imprint scratched out in negative but appears to have been a Winfield Scott image. Other images show the bustling harvesting of spices in Ceylon Singapore Jamaica and German East Africa rubber plantations in the Amazon Valley of Brazil and panning gold in Vancouver B.C. and hydraulic gold mining in Otago New Zealand with image by Burton Bros. of Dunedin. The Rice and Silk sections both offer excellent views of both processes in late Meiji and Taisho-era Japan. The Commercial Museum which originally opened in 1897 was the foremost source of international trade knowledge for American manufacturers in the early 20th Century. Slowly other Trade Commissions and Exhibitions supplanted the Commercial Museum and by the 1950’s the Miniature Museum visual aid exhibits had become obsolete and many had been broken up or photographs and samples dispersed through use. Although the Museum continued to provide programming and display exhibits until 1994 it was then closed indefinitely. See: Charles R. Toothaker Curator Educational Work of the Commercial Museum of Philadelphia Bulletin 1920 No. 13 Dept. of the Interior Bureau of Education 1921 includes images of assorted variations of the original oak sample cases and even large display of possible photo choices; Katelyn Wolfrom Rise and Fall of the Philadelphia Commercial Museum: How a Forgotten Museum Forever Altered American Industry Independence Seaport Museum Spring 2010.

Budapest or Italy ca.: 1970 10 x 11 mm. 3/8 x 7/16". 6 unnumbered leaves three of them blank. Charming burgundy calf upper cover with the head of the Madonna tooled in gilt flat spine with gilt bands. In a black pebble-grain morocco slipcase nestled in fabric inside a 32 x 34 mm. metal box with latch. With a cross printed on the first leaf and a simple engraving of the Madonna's head on the second. Bondy p. 156. Tiny what else scratch to head of spine otherwise A FINE SPECIMEN.<br /> This charming minuscule book contains the Latin text of the "Ave Maria" printed on one page. Bondy tells us there is some dispute about its origins with Hungarian bibliophiles claiming it was printed in Budapest and Italian collectors insisting it was Italy. Whatever its place of publication it could scarcely be more charming and it is certainly the most portable prayer book we have ever offered for sale. <br /> <br /> 3 CHURCH OF ENGLAND.
