18266455Nijmegen: the widow of J.C. Vieweg and son 1826. Modern quarter sheepskin with a morocco title and author label on the spine lettered in gold the year of publication lettered in gold below marbled paper sides blue sprinkled edges. 8vo. With 4 letterpress folding tables and numerous illustrations and figures on 16 folding plates lithographed by Guillaume Philidor van den Burggraaf Brussels. First edition of a rare Dutch technical handbook on clockmaking which was considered an important manual for the technical training of clockmakers at the time. It aimed to foster a more intuitive understanding of the concepts instead of explaining rules that students would learn at school. The work is divided into four parts: the first part treating basic mechanics the second the calculation and design of clockworks the third clock music and the fourth sundials. The whole is preceded by an introduction on the history of the profession. The work is illustrated with several technical plates and figures offering a visual explanation of the concepts described.Jacob Levi Smit ca. 1766-1826 was a master clock- and watchmaker from Groningen with more than forty years of experience. He was born in Friesland and likely learnt the profession in Leeuwarden where he worked for several years. A number of his clocks have survived. The present work is his only written publication and was intended for the students of the clockmakers school. The publishers preface tell us that Smit passed away on 1 November just as the main part of the text was being printed. A second edition appeared in 1836 and a third in 2011.With the owners stamp of M. Passenier Domburg on the half title. The spine is slightly rubbed. Several faint water stains in the margins of the plates occasional very minor foxing.
