Franckfurt am Mayn: Gottfried Tampachs 1629. Fourth edition. Very Good.<br/><br/> This work is Ercker's crowning achievement. It was highly prized in its time and remained an important technical book for over 200 years because of its precise data concerning the fusion processes of gold silver copper tin iron lead and mercury. "Ercker described laboratory procedures and equipment gave an account of preparing the cupel of constructing furnaces and of the assaying balance and the method of operating it. He used as his model Agricola's De re Metallica yet he was quite original and included on the procedures he himself had tested." -DSB IV 393.

Its detailed approach has made it a key reference in the history of science and technology and its practical focus contributed to the economic development of mining regions. "Ercker's treatise is the most authoritative contemporary work on 16th-century metallurgy and assaying. Ercker gave a systematic review of methods of testing alloys and minerals and of obtaining and refining various metals as well as methods of manufacturing acids salts and other chemical compounds including saltpeter. He described the apparatus and laboratory equipment used in metallurgy and assaying and gave a detailed account of laboratory methods all of which he himself had used." Norman "Erker's Beschreibung may be regarded as the first manual of analytical and metallurgical chemistry. The only one of Ercker’s works to contain many drawings it presents a systematic review of the methods of testing alloys and minerals of silver gold copper antimony mercury bismuth and lead; of obtaining and refining these metals as well as of obtaining acids salts and other compounds. The last chapter is devoted to saltpeter. Ercker's account of the fact that zinc precipitates other metals from solutions is to be found only in the 1684 and later editions" DSB. “Considering the importance of Ercker’s tratise it is remarkable how little is on record about him. He was inspector-general of the mine of Hungary Transylvania and the Tyrol which position he held under three consecutive emperors in the sixteenth century. He book was highly prized at the time for it was a record of practical experiences and was not burdened with theories and hypotheses. Ferguson. Ferguson 1 244.

16-6163Paris: Grands festivals de Paris 1907. 4pp. 15 x 23.6cm. Rare. Provenance: Fond de l'Imprimerie STERN 47 passage des Panoramas à Paris.Le Graveur Stern ou Stern Graveur est une société française d’imprimerie et de gravure fondée à Paris en 1834 dans le passage des Panoramas bien connu pour ses gravures de haute qualité dont : les menus de repas de la haute société les titres de bourse les boutons de manchettes les médailles les billets de Banque les cartes de visites et autres passeports diplomatiques. Graveur imprimeur à Paris Stern Graveur atelier spécialisé dans la gravure de papier à lettre invitations faire-part monogrammes chevalières armoriées cartes de voeux.La Maison Stern et Aumoitte a été fondée en 1836 par Monsieur Aumoitte qui s'associe à un jeune graveur Moïse Stern. Cette association dure jusqu'à la fin des années 1850 puis Moïse Stern reprend la Maison. L'ex-libris de la Maison Stern devient un grand « S » dans lequel se loge un lion dressé la patte antérieure reposant sur le monogramme « MS » entrelacé. Une main brandissant un outil de graveur et deux pièces d'armure un gant et le casque complètent la composition. En 1867 et en 1889 la Maison Stern se voit décerner la Médaille d'Or lors de ces deux expositions universelles. Par la suite Moïse Stern sera occasionnellement membre du jury qui décerne cette médaille. Dans les années 1890 M.Stern associe son fils René à l'entreprise qui prend le nom de Stern et fils. René Stern reprend la boutique à son compte en 1904. Parmi ses prestigieux clients la Maison Stern a eu l'honneur de compter l'Elysée pour ses menus et ses invitations les ambassades la noblesse et les grandes entreprises françaises et étrangères. Chacun participe depuis longtemps au renom de la Maison. Depuis les générations se sont succédé avec aujourd'hui une volonté très forte de conserver et valoriser un savoir-faire et des techniques qui tendent à disparaître.Engraver and printer in Paris Stern Graveur was a workshop specializing in the engraving of letterheads invitations announcements monograms heraldic signet rings and greeting cards. The Maison Stern et Aumoitte was founded in 1836 by Mr. Aumoitte who partnered with a young engraver Moïse Stern. T.his partnership lasted until the late 1850s when Moïse Stern took over the company. The Maison Stern bookplate became a large "S" containing a rearing lion its foreleg resting on the intertwined monogram "MS." A hand brandishing an engraver's tool and two pieces of armor a glove and a helmet complete the composition. In 1867 and 1889 the Maison Stern was awarded the Gold Medal at these two World's Fairs. Moïse Stern would later occasionally serve as a member of the jury that awarded this medal. In the 1890s. Mr. Stern brought his son René into the business which took the name Stern et fils. René Stern took over the shop in 1904. Among its prestigious clients Maison Stern has had the honor of counting the Élysée Palace for its menus and invitations embassies the nobility and major French and foreign companies. Each has long contributed to the Maison's reputation. Paris: Grands festivals de Paris, 1907. unknown
