Slim 8vo pages: 3 4-9 60 tables 61-66 original publisher's brown cloth gilt title to upper cover pale yellow endpapers. Covers have pale mottled fading a few ink lines to lower cover narrow pale red stain to top of first pastedown and endpaper small bookplate to first pastedown otherwise a good copy. An accomplished chemist Herschel discovered the action of hyposulfite of soda on otherwise insoluble silver salts in 1819 which led to the use of "hypo" as a fixing agent in photography. In 1839 independently of William Henry Fox Talbot Herschel also invented a photographic process using sensitized paper. It was Herschel who coined the use of the terms in photography of positive and negative to refer to photographic images. In 1820 he became a founding member of the Royal Astronomical Society. From 1833 until 1838 his astronomical investigations brought him and his family to the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa where he met Julia Margaret Cameron who became a lifelong friend. In 1850 Herschel was appointed Master of the Mint but he resigned 6 years later due to poor health. His remaining years were spent working on his catalogues of double stars and of nebulae and star clusters. MORE IMAGES ATTACHED TO THIS LISTING ALL ZOOMABLE FURTHER IMAGES ON REQUEST.

Original vintage gelatin silver publicity photograph of stars HUMPHREY BOGART and INGRID BERGMAN single weight 8 1/8" by 10" in Near Fine condition with superb vintage toned gloss. Burbank CA: Warner Brothers Studios 1942.

It features the romantic duo in the film's famous Paris flashback sequence. In Very Good to Fine condition toned a tiny bit of storage wear. CASABLANCA needs no hype or introduction from us.
