1780ABC_45700Batavia = Amsterdam 1780. Contemporary marbled paper wrappers. 8vo. With a decoration on the title page headpiece and factotum all built up from rococo typographic ornaments. First edition of an economic survey of the VOC Dutch East India Company trading posts and possessions in Asia. As might be expected it centres on Indonesia but also discusses the activities of the Dutch in other places at length: Ceylon "one of the main possessions"; Coromandel where the Dutch brought all goods from the smaller trading posts to their outpost and regional capital Nagapattinam a woman governed the region!; Malabar exporting no less than 2 million pounds of pepper cardamom and other spices yearly; Surat "a complete disorder".The book provides detailed information about the social-political structures of these trading posts the valuable goods and materials that the country produces and the way the Dutch operate with the local population. The author is very critical of the abuses in the Dutch East Indies an observation that was ahead of his time.A French translation État présent des Indes Hollandaises contenant une peinture varie et fidelle du gouvernement appeared most likely in the same year. Landwehr suggests that the two were published simultaneously and may have been printed in Amsterdam.With a manuscript list of readers from a Haarlem reading society beginning on 28 March 1780 on the back of the front wrapper supporting the date ca. 1780 in the literature. The list includes the names of prominent Haarlemmers: Joh. Enschede 2x A. Hugaart Heems Pieter Klaarenbeek and others. Wrappers and leaves slightly frayed the title page slightly soiled. Otherwise in good condition.l Cat. NHSM I 506; Landwehr VOC 1596; Rouffaer p. 62. unknown

1920267071920. Hardcover. Very good overall. An interesting photograph album of about 88 photographs compiled by an unknown British businessman who visits Hong Kong Colombo & wider Ceylon. He visits Hong Kong as a bachelor and here there are several amusing snapshots of men in kimonos some parading with parasols. Arriving in Ceylon the businessman seems to have been involved with either rubber or coconut plantations. He appears to marry in Ceylon. There are also 13 vernacular shots of Colombo buildings and people including a lovely Sri Lankan woman and a Chinese street seller. There is a charming image of a young coolie asleep on the bottom rung of his rickshaw. A group of 4 photos show a large white ship from various angles includes one of the captain looking at native boats alongside by photographer Karl Lewis possibly related to the Great White Fleet. Then a group of personal family portraits and one of the Forth Bridge in Scotland.<br /> <br /> Lewis was an interesting photographer of the last century. Born in Kentucky in 1865 he started as a dock worker and eventually took to the sea living all over the world. He settled in Yokohama in 1901 had a common law wife and ran small photographic printing business issuing brochures postcards and covers that were sometimes hand colored. In 1905 his catalog advertised "take any photograph sketch or draw produce 100 elegantly colored postcards for $1.75 including shipping." Over the years he found sailors and the American Navy a popular subject possibly because of sales. His postcards & photographs have become very collectible.

ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !!
