185522646Buenos Aires: R. Kratzenstein 1855. Lithographs measuring on average 3 1/2 x 6 1/2 inches on slips of blue or white paper likely clipped from the top of pictorial letter sheets. Light edge wear. Very good. Matted. An attractive group of lithographic vignettes of scenes in and around Buenos Aires.<br/> <br/>These images were published by Rodolfo Kratzenstein who was one of the leading lithographers in Buenos Aires from the mid-1850s and are probably from pictorial letter sheets issued by his firm in that period. One illustration shows a long stretch of the cityscape of Buenos Aires from the harbour and several ships are shown in the choppy waters of the port. Other images show the "Casa de Justicia" the courts and the "Palermo"neighborhood. Two other images one of them here in two examples show scenes in the countryside outside Buenos Aires both of them depicting men on horseback dealing with wagons in difficult terrain. Pictorial letter sheets from Argentina are uncommon and these are attractive images. R. Kratzenstein unknown books
19391509Buenos Aires 1939. Very good. 22 leaves with twenty-one original photographs each 7 x 9 inches plus interleaved plastic guards. Oblong folio. Spiral wire bound plastic and synthetic boards with decorative wire edges. Light wear and soiling at boards edges. Occasional light soiling internally. Photos crisp and clean mounted directly to leaves. An attractive presentation album promoting the opening in 1939 of Falcon & Cia. the Argentinian distributor of Myrurgia a Spanish perfumer and cosmetics manufacturer. Falcon & Cia.'s offices were located at 743 Juncal in the same block with the iconic Palacio Estrugamou a monumental and elaborate example of Parisian residential architecture in Buenos Aires. By contrast the modernized headquarters of Falcon & Cia. are somewhat more functional but still reflect a sleek Art Deco style. The present album mostly showcases the renovated interior with modern open offices and architectural details with Deco furniture and design elements. The lack of ornamentation on the columns windows and floors reflect the contemporary international style and perhaps also the economics of this period at the end of the Depression just prior to the outbreak of World War II. This was also a time during which Spanish companies like Myrurgia expanded into South America in order to develop new markets and to manufacture their products locally thereby avoiding the chaos of their Civil War. A neat and scarce photographic document of architectural style in Argentina in the late 1930s. Not in OCLC. books

This 1940 album produced on the 140th anniversary of the regiment was a crucial time for the military in Argentina with the country officially neutral but much influenced by the German military. The Regiment was led by General Ambrosio Vago first photograph a supporter of the Allies who had refused to take part in the coup of 1930 though at this time was urging a new coup along with a number of Axis-leaning officers to oust President Ramón Castillo with the goal of holding non-fraudulent elections.

A rare photographic record of the Argentinean military before Peron's ascendancy.

P003372Buenos Aires: Izd. Argentinskogo otdela Russkogo Obsche-voinskogo soiuza 1957. Octavo 19 à 14. Modern quarter cloth over boards with original printed wrappers preserved; 117 2 pp. Very good. This émigré commemorative volume is dedicated to General Mikhail Alekseev 1857-1918 founder of the White resistance movement. The volume celebrates Alekseev's centenary and 40 years since the Bolshevik Revolution and the formation of the White Volunteer Army in November 1917. A veteran of the Russo-Japanese War of 1905 and WWI Alekseev maintained close relations with the Czar Nicholas II serving as his Chief of Staff. In this capacity after the February Revolution Alekseev along with a number of other officials advised the Czar to abdicate advice which the Czar eventually followed. Subsequently Alekseev briefly and reluctantly operated under the Provisional Government. After the October Revolution he along with General Kornilov began to form the anti-Bolshevik Volunteer Army which he led until his death in 1918. The pamphlet was printed by the Argentine section of the Russian All-Military Union an émigré military organization founded in 1924 by General Wrangel in Serbia with the aim of connecting all Russian émigré military personal in various countries. The organization though anti-communist tried to hold a neutral political position uniting a variety of political opinions of more than one hundred thousand of its members. As such this publication points out General Alekseev's "modest origins" highlighting the class diversity of the White movement.
