1905153020Lahore: Printed at the North Western Railway Press 1905-06. The Raj by rail Lavishly produced souvenirs of a six-month tour of India by the future George V and Queen Mary. Both are scarce: in the UK Cambridge holds a copy of each and we have traced a further copy of Time Table at Leiden. The 1905-06 royal visit was an opportunity for the prince and princess to broaden their imperial experience. The ambitious program included visits by rail to all four corners of India - Peshawar Rangoon Mysore and Karachi - and represented the most wide-ranging survey undertaken in India by any member of the royal family. "As with his father in 1875-6 he the prince was struck by the complacent sense of superiority of many of the white civil servants and on his return made a speech calling for 'a wider sympathy' on the part of the Indian Civil Service" ODNB. The success of the trip set the stage for the couple's return in 1911 for the coronation durbar the only durbar attended by a British monarch. The two brochures cover the legs from Bhatindi to Umballa Cantonment 28 November - 11 December 1905 and Delhi to Karachi Cantonment 8-17 March 1906 the last part of the tour. Besides detailed itineraries each includes views taken along the route such as the tomb of Ranjit Singh at Lahore the tunnel into the Upper Bolan Pass and the Chappar Rift Bridge. Special Trains also has portraits of local inhabitants. Provenance: Herbert Henry Spalding 1874-1943 District Locomotive Superintendent Bhatuda with his address on the mailing envelope.

This was an India dominated by the East India Company the British joint-stock company that came to rule large areas of India with its private armies exercising military power and seizing administrative functions. Formed in the early 1600s to compete with the Dutch for trade and commerce in the East the company rose to account for half of the world's trade at one point. Company rule in India lasted until 1858 when following the Indian Rebellion of 1857 the Government of India Act 1858 led to the British Crown's assuming direct control of the Indian subcontinent in the form of the new British Raj. The company was dissolved in 1874 as a result of the East India Stock Dividend Redemption Act passed one year earlier as the Government of India Act had by then rendered it vestigial powerless and obsolete. The official government machinery of British India assumed the East India Company's governmental functions and absorbed its navy and its armies in 1858. Wikipedia John Tallis 7 November 1817 3 June 1876 was an English cartographic publisher. His company John Tallis and Company published views maps and atlases in London from roughly 1838 to 1851. Tallis set up as a publisher with Frederick Tallis in Cripplegate in 1842; the business moved to Smithfield in 1846 and was dissolved in 1849. From 1851 to 1854 Tallis operated as John Tallis and Company. He started The illustrated news of the world and national portrait gallery of eminent personages in 1858 selling it for £1370 in 1861; it folded in 1863. Wikipedia The most important project John Tallis undertook was the 'Illustrated Atlas' from 1851. The original map we offer here was part of this exceptional Atlas and all the maps it contained are still today considered as the last reminder of an era of lavish map production. Tallis worked the project together with John Rapkin 1815-1876 and it was Rapkin's style and talent that we have to thank for when we marvel at these maps today. What makes these maps so special is the detail of engraved vignettes that surround the map and often show indigenous scenes people in their environment and even more so historical buildings or historical views of towns and cities architecture and landscape. The project of 'The Illustrated Atlas' was designed to be finished just in time for the anxiously awaited "Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations" or The Great Exhibition sometimes referred to as the Crystal Palace Exhibition in reference to the temporary structure in which it was held was an international exhibition that took place in Hyde Park London from 1 May to 11 October 1851. It was the first in a series of World's Fairs exhibitions of culture and industry that became popular in the 19th century and it was a much anticipated event. The Great Exhibition was organized by Henry Cole and Prince Albert husband of the reigning monarch Queen Victoria. It was attended by numerous notable figures of the time including Charles Darwin Samuel Colt members of the Orléanist Royal Family and the writers Charlotte Brontë Charles Dickens Lewis Carroll George Eliot and Alfred Tennyson. Music for the opening was under the direction of Sir George Thomas Smart and the continuous music from the exhibited organs for the Queen's procession was "under the superintendence of William Sterndale Bennett".

1961232281961. Southern India photo album documenting an international Christian missionary medical group around Vellore Karigiri Katpadi and Kanchipuram in 1961 many photographs captioned and identify individuals. The album showcases how missionary labor operated after the end of British rule through hospitals training schools religious ceremony and organized visits into village and temple spaces. Compiled by a French speaking participant within an international Christian medical network the album centers on institutions linked to Christian Medical College and Hospital Vellore where foreign and Indian personnel worked inside a system first developed under colonial era Protestant missions and then carried forward in postcolonial India through education nursing public health and evangelical presence.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 110 Silver gelatin photographs mounted in a leather bound album most photos measure 3" x 4" album measures 9" x 12" Vellore Karigiri Katpadi Polambakkam and Kanchipuram Tamil Nadu dated by captions to 1961.

By 1961 India was politically independent yet this album shows how missionary medicine still organized relations between Western visitors Indian Christian institutions and local Tamil communities. Overall very good condition. A strong record of postcolonial missionary medicine in southern India showing how colonial religious systems survived through healthcare education and cross cultural authority rather than formal imperial rule alone. unknown
