11377Woodblock-printed. Two half-page woodcut illus. of the Buddha & Skanda/Weituo. 3 80 folding leaves. 8vo old paper wrappers old stitching. Taiwan fucheng å°ç£åºœåŸŽ: Dehua tang å¾·åŒ–å ‚ 1856.<br /> <BR> <BR> An unusual edition of the Diamond Sutra reprinted in 1856 from the now lost 1688 first edition. Taiwanese woodblock-printed books that predate the administrative expansion of the 1870s and the Japanese invasion in 1895 are very rare: we find only a handful of such titles in WorldCat. This title in particular has only one copy listed held at the National Central Library in Taiwan OCLC accession no. 1478321371.<br /> <BR> <BR> According to the colophon in our copy when the great Qing admiral Shi Lang æ–½ç… 1621-96 was summoned back to the northern capital after his successful conquest of Taiwan in 1688 he commissioned the printing of this sutra in hope that the merit thus generated would guarantee a safe voyage. The engraving and impression were entrusted to his friend Zou Songfeng é„’æ¾å³° and based on Shi Lang's manuscript copy of a Jiangxi Dabei temple edition of the sutra which he borrowed from the monk Shunqiu 顺求. <br /> <BR> <BR> The colophon states that the woodblocks are kept at the Dehua tang å¾·åŒ–å ‚ in the prefectural capital which is the oldest community temple of the syncretic Longhua é¾è¯ sect on the island. The 42 woodblocks from which our copy was printed are still kept there today in the city of Tainan. The only woodblocks that are lost are those used to print the bicolor title page which in our edition has the title in blue and the decorative surroundings in red. The additional colophon on f. 73v gives the date Xiangfeng bingchen 1856 which Yang Yung-chih 楊永智 in his survey of early modern Taiwanese publishing hypothesizes to be when these woodblocks were carved based on the 1688 first edition. Yang's study shows that the Dehua tang published a dozen or so Buddhist and folk religion texts between 1835 and 1898 including this title. <br /> <BR> <BR> This edition of the Diamond Sutra likely intended for ritual incantation rather than private reading on account of its opening prayers and mantras is rather eclectic. The 80 folding leaves are printed with woodblocks lacking the customary frames around the edges and the commentary is printed with smaller characters that are a third rather than the usual half of the width of the main text. Also striking are the pronunciation guides printed next to obscure characters and characters with "Buddhist readings" ensuring their correct incantation by a semi-literate reader. For example the characters nanwu å—ç„¡ which reflecting the Sanskrit namo/namas/namaḥ must be pronounced counterintuitively as namo in the Chinese Buddhist context are helpfully glossed with the characters namo ç´è¬¨. It appears also that the extensive commentary - not only of the Diamond Sutra but also of the Heart Sutra that follows - were original compositions that do not coincide with any canonical commentary within the TaishÅ Tripiá¹aka. The comprehensive and somewhat colloquial style of the commentary leads us to suspect that it likewise anticipated a semi-literate audience.<br /> <BR> <BR> It is clear that much remains to be researched regarding the peculiar format content and edition history of Explaining the Diamond Sutra especially given the important place it occupies in the early history of printing in Taiwan.<br /> <BR> <BR> Very good condition with some minor staining mostly marginal and foxing. Preserved in a hantao.<br /> <BR> <BR> ⧠楊永智 明清時期臺å—å‡ºç‰ˆå² å°ç£å¸ç”Ÿæ›¸å±€ 2007 pp. 328-31. unknown

1930233491930. Diamond T vehicles trade catalog in the rapid expansion of specialized road transport in the interwar automobile economy when manufacturers were selling purpose-built vehicles for fuel hauling newspaper distribution express freight refrigerated delivery horse transport municipal service and passenger movement. The catalog showcases trucks with preexisting clients such as Railway Express Agency armored panel body a Herald and Examiner newspaper delivery body Kraft-Phenix cheese trucks for the Louisiana Cheese Co. of Shreveport a 750 gallon tank trailer a Woods hydraulic hoist dump body a special horse van body and a long-wheelbase bus body built in Sweden. Diamond T itself grew from an automobile maker into a truck manufacturer in the early twentieth century and by the 1930s its commercial line was positioned within a national market that demanded increasingly specialized motor vehicles for freight and service work. <br /> <br /> Diamond T. Trade catalog. circa 1930s. Oblong string-bound salesman's trade catalog 35 pages with 14 duplicate leaves and 2 loose photos measuring 12" x 8". The catalog consists of large photographic plates with captions beneath each vehicle including "Diamond T Model 216 with Deluxe Cab Highway Trailer and 750 Gallon Tank" "Diamond T Model 216 with Special Armored Panel Body" "Diamond T Model 216 with Deluxe Cab Woods Hydraulic Hoist and 1½ Yard Body" "Diamond T Model 606 with Special Horse Van Body" and"Diamond T Model 216 Tractor with Deluxe Cab and Fifth Wheel." Customer names and operating contexts printed on the bodies include Railway Express Agency Rietz Lumber Co. Thoroughbred Transfer Co. with routes including Chicago Laurel Maryland and New Orleans Hotel Siljansborg Herald and Examiner Empire and Kraft-Phenix cheese distribution. <br /> <br /> The catalog belongs to the years when trucking was displacing horse-drawn and rail-dependent local distribution in many sectors by offering flexible door-to-door service and its selling logic is visible in the range of bodies paired to one manufacturer's line. Newspaper delivery refrigerated food distribution express freight utility tank service dump work bus transport and livestock movement all appear here as variations within a single motorized sales program showing how the truck company and its salesman had to market adaptability as much as horsepower or appearance. Rubbing and minor edge wear to covers minor foxing and toning; overall good condition. A piece of commercial automotive advertising history in which the growth of road transport is legible through the specific industries and body types Diamond T offered to prospective buyers. unknown
