1862ST16794Boston: Printed for the Author for private distribution 1862. 235 x 175 mm. 9 3/8 x 6 7/8". 35 1 pp. <br/> HANDSOME BROWN CRUSHED MOROCCO BY THE ROSE BINDERY OF BOSTON stamp-signed in gilt on front turn-in covers with wide frame of multiple gilt fillets curling leaf tools and daisy tools raised bands spine gilt in triple-ruled compartments with two leaf tools at center turn-ins framed by gilt rules and daisy tools light brown moiré silk doublures and endleaves top edge gilt. Original wrappers bound in. EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED WITH 25 PLATES including steel engravings copperplates etchings a mezzotint and a woodcut all depicting people and events from the text. Front flyleaf with morocco bookplate of Frank Deering; original front wrapper with ink presentation inscription: "Mr. Wm. B. Trask / with the regards of / the Author." Text leaves with light even toning occasional faint offsetting from plates or tissue guards one plate with mild foxing otherwise a lovely copy the text and plates clean and fresh and THE HANDSOME BINDING LUSTROUS AND UNWORN.<br/> <br/> This short overview of the life of the Elizabethan courtier and explorer is most attractively bound and extra-illustrated with portraits of Raleigh Queen Elizabeth Francis Drake and other members of the court as well as friends and rivals of the book's subject along with a view of the Tower of London where he was imprisoned the battle with the Spanish Armada and the famous scene in which Raleigh gallantly placed his cloak over a puddle for the queen to cross. The text is an anomaly in the writings of antiquarian and genealogist Samuel Drake 1798-1875 who wrote primarily about early New England including several accounts of Indian captivities. Drake presented this copy in its original wrapper to his fellow editor at the "New-England Historical & Genealogical Register and Antiquarian Journal" William Trask. The book was later extra-illustrated and elegantly bound for distinguished Maine collector Frank Deering 1866-1939 by the Rose Bindery in Boston a firm that catered to bibliophiles. <br /> <br /> Around the turn of the 20th century Boston was home to a number of hand binderies formed as part of the American embrace of the Arts & Crafts Movement. Hoping to stand out from the competition the Rose Bindery did not advertise but published a small booklet outlining the services they offered for "the owners of libraries but more especially of rare volumes first editions unique books that require new bindings or where the present binding should be repaired so as to preserve or restore its original character and beauty." The booklet also explained the bindery's creative approach: "It has been truly said that a great deal more thought should be put into what is left out of the design than to what is put into it; dignity and character should always be uppermost in the mind of the designer." Our binding embodies this philosophy with restrained and elegant tooling with an unusual curling leaf tool thoughtfully deployed. <br /> <br /> Deering was head of a lumber company and also served in his state's legislature. History was his main area of interest and his library contained an impressive collection of early Americana. According to his obituary in the journal of the American Antiquarian Society "One of the prominent features of his library was the almost complete collection which he gathered of Indian narratives and captivities in which field his collection was un-rivalled in the country." It seems likely he knew of Samuel Drake due to their shared interest in this topic. The special treatment he commissioned for this book adds greatly to its allure as does the pristine condition of the binding. Printed for the Author for private distribution unknown

Third Edition. 222 x 145 mm. 8 3/4 x 5 3/4". x 337 1 pp. <br/> Very attractive brown morocco gilt to an Arts & Crafts design by Sangorski & Sutcliffe stamp-signed on rear turn-in covers with double fillet border central panels framed by gilt rules accented with gilt dots at corners and sidepieces four intersections with gilt daisy an inlaid green morocco dot at center of these blooms and at center of each side of frame raised bands spine compartments with gilt fillet frame trefoil and dots at corners gilt lettering gilt-ruled turn-ins marbled endpapers top edge gilt. WITH A TOTAL OF 31 ENGRAVED PLATES six as called for one of these a map and EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED with 25 portraits of persons discussed in the book. Front pastedown with morocco bookplate of W. A. Foyle Beeleigh Abbey. Tips and bottom edges of boards a little rubbed isolated offsetting from inserted engravings but quite an excellent copy the text and original plates clean fresh and bright and the binding lustrous and virtually unworn.<br/> <br/> Gracefully bound and extra-illustrated this is the Foyle copy of an entertaining biography of Russia's most scandalous empress written by Philip Walsingham Sergeant 1872-1952 who composed numerous historical biographies largely of royal women. In the present account of Catherine the Great Sargeant provides a highly readable version of the life of the empress. As the title of the book suggests great attention is paid to her various liaisons and controversies "she was" Sergeant tells us wryly "a woman whose life gave scandal the fullest opportunity to gather about her" but also to her importance as a ruler and Enlightenment figure. The very pleasing binding with its delicate detail and clean Arts & Crafts design is the work of the leading firm of Sangorski & Sutcliffe. Francis Sangorski and George Sutcliffe trained with Douglas Cockerell before founding their own bindery in 1901. They continued in a successful partnership until 1912 when Francis drowned. Despite this loss the firm grew and prospered employing a staff of 80 by the mid-1920s and becoming perhaps the most successful English bindery of the 20th century. Our former owner W. A. Foyle 1885-1963 was himself a bookseller on Charing Cross Road where he co-founded with his brother the famous Foyle's Bookshop. Foyle was an avid and discriminating collector whose three large sales at Christie's held in 2000 were a bibliophilic highlight of the new century. The sum of $19 million for which William Foyle's personal library sold in July set a record for private European collections. T. Werner Laurie unknown

ST12206Lucerne: Faksimile Verlag 1985. No. 1 OF 980 COPIES. 391 x 273 mm. 15 3/8 x 10 3/4". 1035 pp. in the facsimile. Two volumes including commentary volume in German. <br/> Stately replica blind-stamped pigskin covers with multiple floral frames small rampant lion stamped in black ink on each central panel raised bands brass and leather clasps. WITH NUMEROUS LARGE MINIATURES depicting battles sieges assaults floods fires and the burning of two unfortunates at the stake. In mint condition.<br/> <br/> The Great Burgundian Chronicle also called the "Zürcher Schilling" after the author and after Zürich where it is kept is the most original and thorough book from the period on the Burgundian Wars between the Swiss Confederation and Charles the Bold. It was executed around 1480 in the tradition of the Bern chronicles begun by Konrad Justinger in 1420 and it is the most comprehensive of all chronicles ever carried out by Schilling. The Great Burgundian Chronicle gives a unique witness as the expression of a genuine patriot and does so without the heavy censorship that characterizes later "official" versions of the text. One of the most important features of the manuscript's illustrations is the landscape in which the events take place. It hardly ever corresponds to topographic reality but is rather based on the artist's imagination. The viewer sees the depicted scenes from above being treated to fanciful versions of little towns villages and castles all carefully inserted into a lovely but imaginative landscape of rolling hills.
