17854530Paris: François-Ambroise Didot 1785 1785. Two volumes. Large 4to. 310x230mm. pp. ix 1 596; 4 548. Handsomely bound in red morocco. Gilt borders spine lettered in gilt turn ins decorated in gilt. All edges gilt marbled endpapers. Pale blue silk ribbon in each volume. Slight bumping to bottom edges and rubbing to corners and to head and foot of spines but otherwise a lovely set in very good condition and internally excellent save for a little foxing in places and some minor staining in volume two. Beautifully printed in two columns by François-Ambroise Didot this Bible is part of the "Collection des auteurs classiques François et Latins" published by command of Louis XVI as works suitable for the education of the Dauphin. In fact this is the only work in Latin as the project was largely intended as a vehicle for the promotion of the classics of French literature including works by Racine Voltaire Corneille Rousseau Molière La Fontaine and La Rochefoucauld. The total set runs to thirty two volumes. François-Ambroise Didot was the second generation of the great printing dynasty inventing a new printing press and adapting the Fournier point system for typefaces. The Didot point is now the European standard typographical measure.

17147139<p>Very Good 1714 Hamburg Germany. The first ever printing of this seminal classic. The first time that Bible stories were printed specifically for children. Thus it was somewhat "cleansed" before publication. One source I found says that the incest and murder committed by David were altered among other things. It is four inches by seven inches and includes 104 plates from engravings 52 in the Old Testament and 52 in the New Testament. There are 400 pages of text plus the eight page introduction. Also all the plates are on unnumbered pages for a total of 512 printed pages. The book is in its original calves leather boards and spine which are still attached but fragile. All pages including all front and rear endpapers are present. The last two plates have been repaired at the edges and several pages inside have edge tears or stains but they are minimal. There is the expected foxing throughout and a former owner name and inscription in pencil at the front and a name alone in pencil at the rear. The leather of the boards and spine are rubbed and worn and partially chipped off at the spine ends. The original black leather spine label with gilt titles is still present. A rare gem the only copy I have ever seen of the original first printing from 1714. Johann Hübner 1668-1731 was a German geographer born in Türchau bei Zittau on May 15 1668. He studied Theology History and Geography in Leipzig from 1689 onwards. From 1691 he was Master and then from 1694 Rector of the Gymansium at Merseburg Martisberg; then from 1711 of the Johanneum College in Hamburg. Hübner worked with Nuremberg mapmaker J B Homann 1663-1724 and English cartographer Jean Palairet 1697-1774. His other published works included Kurze Fragen aus der alten und neuen Geographie Leipzig 1693 and Museum Geographicum Das Ist: In Verzeichnis der besten Land-Charten.nebst einem Vorchlage wie daruas allerhand große und kleine Atlantes können sortiert.</p> Johann Hübner hardcover

"Folio King James Version with Geneva notes likely printed at Amsterdam" Herbert 936; ESTC T82272; Darlow & Moule 936. <br> Provenance: This book was in the Curzon family and their descendants for more than 250 years. There are extensive genealogical information including 28 hand written entries over multiple generations on the Apocraypha title page. The entries begin with Richard Curson 1726-1805 and Elizabeth Becker 1731-1787. Richard was an English emigrant to colonial New York who became a prominent merchant banker and patriot buried Old Saint Paul's Episcopal Church Cemetery in Baltimore. The Cursons were sympathetic to the American Revolution and fled the British occupation of New York City for Baltimore. Additional note: His granddaughter was the first American-born Catholic Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton 1774-1821. Richard Jr. continued his father's wine trade and outfitted eight of his ships as privateers during the Revolution. Ownership passed then to Richard Jr.'s daughter Elizabeth Curson d. 1880 who married Samuel Hoffman. Includes the records of Richard Curzon Hoffman a Confederate officer in the Twenty-first Virginia Volunteer Infantry Stonewall Jackson's Second Brigade 1861-1865. The final genealogical entry is for Eliza Lawrence Hoffman b. 1891. Later the book passed to Henrietta Mactier Hoffman who married Walter Lord Sr. Early signature of Ellin Moale Curson and others. Bookplate of the author Walter Lord. John Walter Lord Jr. 1917-2002 was a noted author of more than 12 books including an account of the sinking of the RMS Titanic "A Night to Remember." Includes some related Baltimore ephemera. Lord died without issue and this Bible passed out of the family's hands after his death. Later owned by Frances Tower Thacher a descendant of the Vanderbilt family. Further note: Tucked into an old piece of paper is a four-leaf clover I have not tested its luck but it may still yield fortuitous qualities. [Amsterdam] [London] : Printed in the year 1715 hardcover
1738ST20149Zürich: David Geßner 1738. 162 x 88 mm. 6 3/8 x 3 1/2". 272 pp.; 192 pp.; 8 leaves; 64 pp. <br/> BEAUTIFUL ENGRAVED STEEL FILIGREE OVER BLACK VELVET each cover with swirling foliage studded with 37 pointed bosses and four oblique lozenge bosses at corners smooth spine in a similar design with nine studs binding with a total of 83 sharp studs two fore-edge clasps one broken off. Housed in a brown buckram chamois-lined chemise and matching slipcase. New Testament with extra engraved title page with image of St. John his eagle and a lamb printer's device on printed title tailpiece at end of text; Psalms with extra engraved title page depicting David with his harp printed title with small vignette of the same scene; Festivals with engraved title page showing the Last Supper. Nap of velvet mostly gone except down the middle of the spine endpapers and the edges of first and last few leaves with numerous small rust spots apparently caused by the covers' metal frame and studs otherwise fine inside and out. An excellent example of a very unusual binding.<br/> <br/> With distinguished provenance this is a dramatic binding that makes a memorable display with engraved and pierced steel strapwork forming a lace-like pattern studded with faceted bosses that at first glance appear to be gems. Our volume has a general resemblance to the best of the small silver bindings produced during the Baroque period; its wonderfully executed foliate scrolls are reminiscent of a German binding described and pictured as item #15 in Hayward's "Silver Bindings from the J. R. Abbey Collection." However we have been unable to locate another example that strongly resembles ours. While not silver it is nevertheless a luxury binding--the engraving with its exquisite detail was done by a skilled hand and the materials themselves would have come at a price since before the Bessemer process of the 1850s steel was difficult to produce and consequently expensive. We do not know for whom this remarkable binding was originally made but we do know that it has more recently resided in two important American collections. Prior to 1955 it was in the library of Saul Cohn whose collection was sold at Parke-Bernet on April 26 of that year this was lot #67. Following that it was part of the illustrious collection of Cincinnati businessman arborist and philanthropist Cornelius J. Hauck 1893-1967 whose fortune was made in the family brewery; the auction of his library at Christie's in 2006 totaled more than $12.4 million this was lot #362 selling for $3120.

Housed in a fine modern brown morocco felt-lined clamshell box. First two works with extra engraved illustrated title page. Ink gift inscription on front flyleaf: "Helen McDowell/ from her/ affectionate/ illegible/ with sincere/ good wishes/ for her future/ happiness/ August 1864." For the binding: Hayward "Silver Bindings from the J. R. Abbey Collection" 14. Sharkskin with just a hint of chafing occasional mild browning or foxing to leaves but QUITE A FINE COPY clean and fresh internally and the binding shining and unworn.<br/> <br/> Beautifully executed and wonderfully preserved this New Testament is an excellent example of the vermeil bindings--that is silver-gilt or gilded/gilt silver--produced in Switzerland and southern Germany during the Baroque period. As is typical this binding is without a hallmark but it closely resembles another New Testament bound in shagreen and vermeil described and pictured as item #14 in Hayward's "Silver Bindings from the J. R. Abbey Collection" which Hayward indicates was produced in Zurich in the early 18th century. These intricate silver bindings were popular for religious works presenting what Hayward calls a "combination of ostentatious wealth and piety" and this one was executed with great skill featuring graceful lines and delicately rendered details. There are two main types of silver bindings from the period: engraved and pierced bindings like the present example which were especially popular in the 17th century; and embossed or repoussé bindings which came into fashion in the late 17th and early 18th century. Of the two the engraved and pierced bindings are generally valued more highly because they required more time and skilled labor. David Gessner unknown
1768ST12938Zurich: David Gessner 1768. 169 x 94 mm. 6 1/2 x 3 3/4". 272 64 214 of 215 pp. <br/> CONTEMPORARY PAINTED AND BLIND-TOOLED VELLUM DECORATED IN AN ELABORATE AND QUAINT STYLE covers with black and red starburst at center in a lobed red and green frame stamped with stars and tulips yellow cornerpieces stamped with a floral design smooth spine painted red and tooled in blind with flowers Dutch gilded endpapers all edges gilt. ◆Covers faintly soiled extremities lightly rubbed one leaf with two-inch portion torn away at fore margin costing small parts of five closely spaced staves of music occasional foxing of no great consequence; with some serious condition issues internally but an extremely pleasing example of a binding representing German folk art of the period.<br/> <br/> Although lacking the final leaf of text this volume is of considerable interest as an expertly made and decorated so-called "Peasant Binding" a colorful binding style that began in Hungary and spread through Germany the Netherlands and Scandinavia in the 18th century. The use of the word "peasant" in this context is a reference to the obvious influence of folk art on this decoration rather than to the clientele for which it was intended. Bibles prayer books and hymnals in the brightly painted and exuberantly decorated vellum bindings were popular wedding gifts among the bourgeoisie who were both literate and sufficiently affluent to afford such luxuries.

Front pastedown with ornate heart-shaped bookplate of Adam Melchior Dæumer dated 1784. ◆Two-inch crack to head of rear joint a bit of rubbing to joints and extremities a handful of quite minor dark spots to boards isolated trivial smudges or stains internally other insignificant imperfections but still a fine specimen--THE CONTENTS EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN BRIGHT AND FRESH and the remarkable binding entirely solid and bright with gilt.<br/> <br/> This is an especially pleasing copy of the last and most extensive edition of the very popular and sumptuously illustrated Weimar Electors' Bible offered here in an impressive contemporary binding. Known as the "Kurfürstenbibel" because of its portraits of the Electoral Princes called "Kurfürsten" in German it was originally prepared for Ernst I Duke of Saxe-Gotha and Altenburg as a celebration of Martin Luther's Bible translation. Editions were issued by the Endters one of the prominent German printing families beginning in 1641. In addition to portraits of Luther and the Protestant princes of Germany the present edition contains the maps views and illustrated half-titles by Jacob van Sandrart and others first used in the edition of 1686. Our copy contains four maps and views not found in other copies of this edition showing the eastern Mediterranean and Palestine as well as both a map and a view of Jerusalem. The size of our volume puts a great strain on the binding which has nevertheless stood the test of time remarkably well. The overall decoration is exuberant the delicate gauffering lovely and the original straps remarkably well preserved. Johann Andrea Endterischen unknown
1769373151Germantown PA: Christoph Saur 1769. 5293pp. 12mo. Contemporary speckled calf covers ruled in blind spine with raised bands brass hinges and clasps minor wear along front joint. Provenance: Abraham de Türck printed book label inserted between the front endpapers. 5293pp. 12mo. German translation of the New Testament printed in Germantown by Christopher Saur the younger. Famous for their quarto bibles in German of 1743 1763 and 1776 the Saur father and son also issued the New Testament separately in smaller format in 1745 1755 1760 1761 1764 1769 and 1775.<br /> <br /> The present example with a unique added leaf preceding the front blank being a printed bookplate within an elaborate typographic border indicating that the owner Abraham de Türck had received the book from his grandfather Johannes Hoch in 1772.

179534103Germantown PA: Michael Billmeyer 1795. Hardcover. 16mo. Original full calf with metal clasps and straps present and functional. 537pp 5pp. Overall very good. Binding a bit edgeworn but attractive; front/rear flyleaves are replacements; text block moderately age toned with mild occasional foxing. Tight and nice second printing of this noted "New Testament" entirely in German first published in 1787 issued from the press of the well-known Philadelphia printer 1752-1837. The printing office/home in which this was printed still stands today; it was built in 1730 purchased by Billmeyer in 1789 and is supposedly the site from which George Washington directed his Continental Army forces in the Battle of Germantown. When Billmeyer and his father-in-law set up their Lutheran press in the 1780s they acquired the surviving equipment of the renowned Philadelphia printer Christopher Saur Jr. whose press the British had destroyed in 1777. The straps are perhaps not original but all brass clasp parts are original and handsome -- and it still clicks firmly closed. Despite mild wear an exceptional copy. Michael Billmeyer hardcover
173833238-165Zurich Johann Heinrich Bürckli 1738. 2 cols. 386 pp.; 256 pp.; 88 pp. 8vo c. 165 x 95 x 25 mm. 18th century Zurich Vermeil binding fine chased goldplated silver over wooden boards covered with black velvet edges gilt. Exlibris. Zurich Johann Heinrich Bürckli 1738. Attractive New Testament in the Zurich version printed for domestic use preciously and splendidly bound in a much sought-after Zurich Vermeil binding fine chased goldplated silver over wooden boards. This N.T. is a typical example out of one of the roughly thirty editions printed in Zurich during the 18th century. It is remarkable that Ambrosius Lobwasser 1515-1584 as a Lutheran thereby paved the way for Calvinist liturgical songs in German speaking countries cf. MGG VIII 1075 by using for his metrical psalms the Geneva book of Psalms prepared by Marot and Beza between 1532 and 1560. His object was to popularize in Germany the melodies of the French Psalter of the beauty of which he had received a deep impression during a long sojourn in Berry; and thus he adhered to the texts which served as channels for these melodies in order that the meter and versification might accord with the French model. The book is housed in an attractive contemporary Zurich binding. Zurich was the most important place of manufacture for Vermeil bindings and shows the design that was common there at this time. Forming a wide frame on both covers and the back it is composed of leafy scroll- and lattice-work with flower and ornamental depictions. In the center of both covers is a small pelican engraved as a symbold for Jesus Christ or as a sign of mercy or possibly an owner sign. This binding is uncommon in that the silver cagework extends round the edges of the covers.- The work shows considerable craftsmanship and is in pristine and fine condition. - Not in VD 18 nor Darlow/Moule; cf.
