Nature Displayed in the Heavens and on the Earth according to the latest observations and discoveries

1823018730London Dublin Edinburgh & New York: Printed for Sir Richard Phillips 1823. Six volumes small octavo pp 588; 600 15; 584 10 uncut a few pages unopened a little age-toning and marking one gathering 347-350 in Volume IV detached and gatherings towards the rear of the volume becoming a bit weak and loose Volume VI has extra bis pages 343 - 354; very well illustrated with 197 engraved or wood engraved plates of which 31 are folding and 50 coloured plates of which 2 are folding and 1 folding table; bound in the original pink boards a bit worn chipped and marked original printed paper labels on the spines the upper cover of Volume V detached otherwise firm and tight a neat signature on each front endpaper. Apparently lacking one plate in Volume 1 Relative Sizes of the Planets though there is no sign of this ever having been bound in. There are several extra plates to those listed and our copy would seem to agree with the set at auction at Christie's in 2006 which contained 246 of 248 plates. A work of considerable charm and interest and despite some faults as mentioned a remarkable set in original unsophisticated state. Simeon Ackroyd Shaw 1785 - 1859 was a 19th-century English scientific writer industrial historian and teacher. He spent his working life in the Staffordshire Potteries now the city of Stoke-on-Trent England. Shaw originated in Lancashire and as a young man he arrived in the Potteries to work on the Potteries Gazette and Newcastle-under-Lyme Advertiser newspaper. After some 20 years of newspaper and printing work living in Wolstanton he then went into teaching. He ran several teaching academies in the district. His first book was this 6-volume work which was based on his obviously very comprehensive series of popular short lectures on everything from natural species to meteorites. First Edition. Boards. Good. Printed for Sir Richard Phillips Hardcover

FLORE PARISIENNE Contenant la Description des Plantes qui Croissent Naturellement aux Environs de Paris.

1813014886Paris: F. Schoell 1813. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition. Elephant Folio. The publication history of this work is difficult to determine though it would appear to have been published between 1808-1813 and then discontinued. It also seemed to have later assumed the name 'Flora Parisiensis'. This copy includes the half-title page title page Flore Parisienne followed by 32 pages of text and 44 leaves of fine uncoloured stipple-engraved plates. This copy includes the original information slip which states "Les neuf premiers Livraisons renfermeront Les Nos 1-5 7-10 1315 17-20 22-26 28-32 34 35 37-41 45-53 59 61 68 des Planches. Les Nos. 6111216 21 formeront la dixieme Livraison. Les Nos. 27 33 36 42 43 la onzieme. Les Nos. 44 54 55 56 57 la douzieme." translated thus. " The first nine Deliveries parts will contain the Nos 1-5 7-10 13 15 17-20 22-26 28-32 34 35 37-41 45-53 59 61 68 of the plates. The nos. 6 11 12 16 21 will form the tenth Part. The nos. 27 33 36 4243 the eleventh. The nos. 44 54 55 56 57 the twelfth." It is our understanding that the later parts were never published - in fact the literature states that only 8 parts were published but the original publication slip here would suggest that in fact it was 9 parts. The number of plates present is 44 which conforms with the above numbers as far as the 9th part and therefore has the full complement of plates at least in this form Books at auction under the title Flora Parisiensis have stated 48 plates and include plate numbers 74-75 which are not mentioned on the publication slip here. The text finishes at page 32 and only goes up to plate 36 so is probably incomplete. This copy is unbound and housed in an old portfolio the leaves are uncut and the paper bright and and fresh without foxing a few leaves slightly worn at the edges plate 68 is torn and creased at the bottom edge in several places but not affecting the plate mark. A very good copy. Seemingly very scarce. We would be pleased to have this bound on your behalf should you wish - please contact us for details. F. Schoell Hardcover
