A PRISTINE COPY OF THE FIRST AND ONLY EDITION OF THIS EXTREMELY EARLY MANUAL FOR RAILROAD CONDUCTORS AND ENGINEERS. 143 pp. Signed by author on verso of half-title (as with all copies). Printed on good wove paper. Name of former owner ("M. Picandet") stamped on front cover and half-title. 12mo. Original plain wraps. Uncut. Light wear to wraps. Internally fine and bright. Considering the tiny target audience of this book, surely very few copies were printed, and most of those were probably subject to heavy use. The survival of such a pristine copy is nothing short of remarkable.
Litografia mm. 320x490. Litografia colorata da mano coeva incorniciata da dettagliato calendario e cornicetta grafica. Titolo al centro del foglio "Il maestro del Villaggio calendario dell'anno 1861. Lunazioni", sotto il quale sono indicate le lunazioni. al centro del margine inferiore i dati tipografici: "Firenze alla Cartoleria di Eugenia Formigli nè Carini e C.o in Condotta di faccia alla Locanda della Luna". Al centro del foglio una vignetta satirica che raffigura il maestro ormai sopraffatto dalle marachelle dei giovani studenti. Raro foglio volante, difficile a reperirsi soprattutto in così buono stato di conservazione, visto l'uso (scolastico) che si faceva di questi fogli. . .

In folio (39x28 cm); 20, (2), (2 b.) pp. e 13 c. di tav. Legatura editoriale in mezza tela con titolo ed immagine al piatto anteriore (una leggerissima brunitura al margine superiore). Un ritaglio all’angolo superiore della prima carta bianca in corrispondenza di una dedica “Dono dell’Autore” a togliere il nome del personaggio al quale Lehrs dedicò l’opera. Il taglio è stato fatto anticamente e lo si può, facilmente, constatare dal fatto che si è formata una lieve brunitura al frontespizio, di forma quadrata, in corrispondenza dell’asportazione della carta. Esemplare per il resto in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Prima edizione (una seconda edizione uscì nel 1892), assai rara, di 250 esemplari numerati. Il nostro esemplare è uno degli esemplari di presentazione tirato fuori dalla numerazione come ben attesta la scritta a stampa in rosso che si trova al posto del numero dell’esemplare “Widmungs-Exemplar.”. Le 13 tavole che contengono le 45 carte, sono finemente incise con una bella e precisa battitura e ogni tavola è protetta da velina. Max Lehrs (24 giugno 1855 Berlino - 12 Novembre 1938, Dresda) è stato uno dei critici d’arte tedeschi più apprezzato della fine del XIX° secolo. Dopo esser stato nel commercio dei libri e delle opere d’arte prima e direttore del Museo della Slesia di Breslavia, poi, fu a lungo direttore della Dresden Kupferstichskabinett (dal 1896 al 1904 un a prima volta e poi dal 1908 al 1924). Fu uno dei primi a capire l’importanza delle riproduzioni fotografiche per la storia dell’arte ma anche come forma di espressione artistica, tanto da instituire un dipartimento di fotografia artistica. Fu anche un appassionato di danza alla visone della quale venne introdotto da Hugo Erfurth. E’ noto, in modo particolare, per la sua grande conoscenza degli incisori tedeschi ed olandesi del 400’ ai quali dedicò alcune importanti opere tanto che ancora oggi, i suoi lavori sono fra le più citate fonti bibliografiche su questi autori. Nonostante la cecità che lo colpì ad un certo punto della sua vita, poté portare avanti la compilazione di altri studi grazie alla sua memoria prodigiosa e all’aiuto della figlia. L’opera qui presentata è uno dei più celebri studi critici delle celebri carte da gioco del celebre orafo ed incisore del tardo gotico tedesco, conosciuto ancora oggi solo con le sue iniziali, il Maestro E. S. (circa 1420 – circa 1468), considerato una delle personalità artistiche più importanti nell'incisione a bulino della metà del XV secolo in Germania. I suoi celebri giochi di carte, probabilmente influenzati da quello che oggi è conosciuto con il nome di Maestro delle Carte da Gioco, da Rogier van der Weyden e Konrad Witz, sono uno degli esempi più elevati di giochi di carte quattrocenteschi giunti fino a noi ed è uno dei primi esempi, di utilizzo della tecnica xilografica (molto costosa all’epoca) per opere in tirature di opere in copie più consistenti. Opera rarissima. Rif. Bibl.: OCLC Number 6751904.
