The period came to be known as the Year of the Three Emperors as his father Wilhelm I passed away in March of that year and Frederick Wilhelm's only son afflicted with cancer of the larynx died in October. Though he professed a hatred of war Crown Prince Frederick had distinguished himself in the Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian wars. He was admired by both friends and enemies for his humane conduct.<p>Both a printing process and the print which it produces Woodburytype was invented and patented by Walter B. Woodbury in 1864. A photomechanical process Woodbury type prints are made from exposing a dichromate-sensitized sheet of gelatin to UV light shining through a photographic negative. Each area of the gelatin hardens to a depth in proportion to the amount of exposure to the light before it is then soaked in warm water. The relief image is then pressed onto a sheet of lead to create an intaglio metal printing plate. Lock and Whitfield, circa [1880]. unknown

A remarkably rare survival of the first edition in English of Lettre sur l’education 1760 the declaration of Frederick II King of Prussia 1712-1785 announcing his desires regarding educational reform. Soon after the original Continental publication Frederick laid the basic foundations of what would eventually become the Prussian primary education system issuing in 1763 a decree for the first Prussian general school law based on the principles developed by Johann Julius Hecker. A true progressive in matters of learning he championed the acquisition of knowledge for the sake of knowledge and believed that women ought to be provided with the same opportunities of their male counterparts as the were no less capable: 'leur intelligence ne le cède point à celle de l'homme et même qu'avec une éducation plus mâle elles l'emporteraient sur nous'. 'Their intelligence does not yield to that of man and even that with a more masculine education they would prevail over us'. ESTC records a single copy Miami. ESTC N33830.
