18886740London: Swan Sonnenschein 1888. First Edition. First Edition. 8vo. 99pp. All edges red. Original publisher’s light brown cloth with superb pictorial cover by Walter Crane stamped in red along with title author etc. taken from the title-page original tan endsheets. F. Holland Day’s Copy with his monogram inscription written on front pastedown and the date Nov ‘13. Wonderful double-page title including frontispiece head- and tailpieces throughout all by Walter Crane. This is an excessively scarce book made more desirable by its ownership and the condition of the book which is fine; covers slightly age-toned the interior nearly as new. A striking survival indeed.

"The great merit of the treatise is Carpenter's blending of the solid part of the work of Aristotle and Ptolemy with that of the explorers and investigators of his own generation. He mentions the magnetical observation of Gilbert Wright Ridley and Norman and the cartographical improvements of Mercator and Wright" Rosenbach 19:110. California is mentioned as an island -- a fifth continent. "California heretofore supposed to be a parte of the Westerne Continent is since by a Spanish chart taken by the Hollanders found to be a great Iland" II:130.

1965LV1993Los Angeles:: Dawson’s Book Shop 1965. 1965. Folio. 14 pp. Title printed in red & black; front pocket. Original quarter beige cloth with blue-gray boards and a gilt-device on upper cover printed spine label. Occidental/ Lawrence Clark Powell gift bookplate. Fine. LIMITED EDITION of 140 copies designed and printed by Saul & Lillian Marks at the Plantin Press. Valtón owned thirty-nine pre-1600 broadsheets listed here by Ed Carpenter 1915-1995. This leaf book contains an original printed leaf from the first press in the New World. It is known that all copies of this edition differ some printed leaves being more desirable. The present specimen is a promissory note opening with the printed phrase "Sepan quantos estra carta vieren come yo . . ." translates closely to "Know by all men that this letter . . ." The accompanying essay describes that similar legal documents were among the first printed documents in Mexico. This was because certain legal phraseology allowed for a document to print the standard words needed and then add the necessary text in manuscript as with this specimen. Dr. Emilio Valtón was the first bibliographer to collect this extremely early and otherwise ignored form of printing in Spain. "Carta de pago" power of attorney. Gothic type. Approx. 9 x 12 ½ inches. 44 lines. Printed on one side. With a leading capital letter S followed by the phrase cited above "Sepan. . ." followed by seven lines of manuscript text. Then in printed form begins "Generalmente para a en todos mis pleytos causas ceuiles y criminal les mouidos y poz mouer que yo be y tengo con qual esquier personas y las tales y otras quale . . ." The verso also has a nine-line manuscript with elaborate signature. By inference this piece is attributed to Pedro Ocharte. See: Valtón Emilio.
