Galo-Maquia. Obra Utilisima para los Aficionados a la Pelea de Gallo manuscript caption title

18505353Spain 1850. Very good. 45pp. Small quarto. Contemporary calf gilt. A few minor abrasions along spine edges and corners worn. Occasional minor dust-soiling or foxing to text. An intriguing handwritten manual on cockfighting describing different types of roosters and the rules for fighting them presumably produced in Spain in the first half of the 19th century. The subtitle of the work touts it as in English translation "a very useful work for cockfighting fans." The manuscript includes passages with headings such as "Nobleza antiguedad y utilidad del juego de Gallo" "Nobility antiquity and usefulness of the Rooster game" "De las peleas en general" "Of fights in general" "Condiciones para carear la guerra" "Conditions to face war" "Condiciones en las peleas de navaja" "Conditions in knife fights" "Observaciones acerca del acto de las peleas" "Observations about the act of fighting" "De las circumstancias del Gallero de las cosas anexas a su egercicio y de su gratificacion" "Of the circumstances of the Gallero of the things annexed to his exercise and gratification" "Sobre preparacion de los gallos para las peleas de pico" "On the preparation of roosters for beak fights" "Del modo de disponer los gallos para las peleas de navaja" "How to arrange the roosters for knife fights" as well as passages on the rules for fighting and comparing roosters by weight age and other means and more. A substantial portion of the latter part of the manual is devoted to describing about thirty different "Colores de los gallos" and color patterns which include various shades and patterns of "Indio" "Giro" "Canelo" "Blanco" "Prieto" "Pintojo" and "Tabao." The last section contains a "Regimen para curar las enformedades que mas generalmente padecen los gallos" "Regimen for curing diseases that roosters most generally suffer from". Though an undated manuscript the binding appears to emanate from the first half of the 19th century. The ownership inscription and stamp on the first flyleaf indicates the work was owned by Fermin Canella Secades of the University of Oviedo in Spain. Canella Secades lived from 1849 until 1924 so could have owned the work anywhere within those years but the manuscript was most assuredly produced earlier. Though he was a prolific author the handwriting of the ownership inscription presumably belonging to Canella Secades does not match the handwriting in the manuscript and the ownership inscription and stamp were most certainly added later. In any case the present manuscript is a fascinating collection of useful information regarding one of the more esoteric bloodsports in the world which is still legal in parts of Spain and Mexico as well as many other countries and still practiced in numerous places where it's clearly illegal. unknown

Charles V, King of SpainBiblio.com

The New Laws of the Indies for the Treatment and Preservation of the Indians Promulgated by the Emperor Charles the Fifth 1542-1543.

To which is prefixed an Historical Introduction by Henry Stevens of Vermont and Fred W. Lucas

1893236066London: Chiswick Press 1893. No. 11 of 13 copies printed on vellum there were also 88 copies printed on paper. Title with vignette numerous woodcut illustrations and large initial capitals. 1 vols. Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm. Loose as issued in publisher's decorated board portfolio with maroon velvet straps in publisher's maroon morocco-backed clamshell box with printed label on upper cover; box worn a few rust marks on upper board. No. 11 of 13 copies printed on vellum there were also 88 copies printed on paper. Title with vignette numerous woodcut illustrations and large initial capitals. 1 vols. Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm. This work consists of two important ordinances issued by the Spanish monarchy on November 20 1542 and June 4 1543. Under the active influence of Bartolomeo de las Casas "friend of the Indians" the new laws had the special design of ensuring better treatment of the Indians limiting the distribution of their lands and above all protecting them against enslavement by the conquering Spaniards. "Las Leyes Nuevas" are reprinted here in this fine facsimile from the copy on vellum in the British Museum and are followed by an English translation. Much of the book is taken up by the historical Introduction by Henry Stevens who denounces the Spanish mistreatment of the Indians. Ironically the Spanish crown was later forced to rescind the new laws by colonists who were outraged at having to give up their right to a quota of enslaved Indian laborers. A magnificent and impressive production by the Chiswick Press one of only 13 printed on vellum. Chiswick Press unknown
