AQ27286London: s.n. 1736 1ff. Single sheet. Docket title to verso. Disbound with chipping at gutter and extremities old folds slightly browned to extremities. Ink and wax crayon numerals to head of sheet. An early example of Parliamentary lobbying literature published in small numbers for distribution to Members of Parliament in order to influence opinion in the run up to debates and divisions refuting the Case of the Working Coopers to the Distillers around London in their complaints that 'laying a Duty upon Compound Waters or Spirits' undated but presumably relating to the Gin Act of 1736 would reduce them to 'very calamitous Circumstances'. Referencing the Coopers arguments against the Bill separately published as ESTC N6066 this refutation notes not only that 'the Consumption of Cask by the Brewers and the Demand of Coopers Work for Merchants and Shipping is so great that there are scarce Coopers enough to supply those Branches of the Trade' but also that 'the making the Cask for the Distillers is not so great a Part of the Coopers Business as is pretended'. This document goes further still by making reference to the 'Malt-Distillers' practice of never buying 'any new Cask but make use of old Wine-Pipes which are made abroad'. Rare; ESTC locates a single copy at California State. ESTC N6065. Folio. [s.n.], [1736?] unknown
1901AQ24286London: Printed for the London County Council by Jas. Truscott and Son 1901. v 1 30pp ff31-33 34-55pp ff56 57-103pp. With a further 17 unnumbered leaves of photographic plates or plans. Original cloth-backed printed paper boards. Somewhat worn with a split to upper joint at head and concomitantly to inner hinge and marginal loss to foot of upper board. A rare profusely illustrated report of an extraordinary tour of British and European asylums undertaken by William Charles Clifford Smith 1855-1931 Asylums Engineer for the London County Council between 1892 and 1924 during Easter Europe and Whitsun Scotland of 1901. The tour took the author to 'Paris and Dun-sue-Auron.Munich Wasserberg Dresden Leipsic Berlin Uchtspringe and Langenfield.Leirneux.Utrecht Haarlem and Emero-Veldwijk.Gartloch Woodilee Larbert Hartwood Inverness Murthly.and Whittingham'. In turn Smith examines for each institution the history situation building construction arrangement of bathing and kitchen facilities and the mode of heating with occasional comments on the numbers general afflictions and diversions of and the separation by sex between the institutions' patients. The numerous illustrations are variously original 'presented to me by the medical directors' or reproductions of other reports both British and Continental. Whilst the tone of the work is largely as one would expect from an engineer it has perhaps unsurprisingly not escaped from the attitudes of the day; such as the inclusion of the 'Berlin City Asylum for Insane Epileptics'. Rare. Unrecorded by COPAC; OCLC locates just two copies at Pennsylvania and McGill. . Folio. Printed for the London County Council, by Jas. Truscott and Son hardcover

18306501London: Dobbs of London 1830. Single sheet of stiff card hand-cut oblong oval 11 x 14 cm. embossed with the publisher's name on the lower left. A superb late Georgian embossed paper pheasant with hand painted watercolor detailing. This beautiful embossed paper pheasant was produced plain in the 1820-30 period by Dobbs of London who were a firm of embossers print publishers and "ornamental stationers to the King". The Regency period saw the introduction of the technique of embossing and it quickly became a very popular form of decoration. Dobbs were known for their use of embossed paper/card designs used in face screens mourning cards writing papers visiting cards and envelopes adapted to all the purposes of fashionable correspondence drawing writing and wrapping papers etc. Painting and drawing were very popular pastimes in the late 18th and 19th centuries. The plain high relief/ embossed card was purchased from a stationer and the artist then set to work bringing the pheasant to life by the use of watercolor. Early dealer's pencil note. Hand-cut into an oval not effecting text or image. Very good. Dobbs of London unknown
