A remarkable photo album documenting the recognized species of tobacco plants as established by Thomas Harper Goodspeed who established in his groundbreaking 1954 Genus Nicotiana 13 infrageneric sections grouping 61 then-recognized species of nicotiana by common and cytogenetic characters. Tobacco plants are widely used in plant virology due mainly to the large number of diverse plant viruses that can successfully infect them as well as serving indispensable in studies of genetic variation protein localization and purification. Goodspeed 1887-1966 originally worked as Curator of the University of California Botanical Garden and was the key figure in overseeing the Garden’s relocation to Strawberry Canyon before serving as its’ director from 1934 to 1957. He spent decades tracing the origins via hybridization of the many varieties of cultivated tobacco plants and close relatives including species of the genus drawn from the Americas Antarctica and Australasia.

19302855Bruyères-le-Châtel, Simon Louis Frères et Cie, sans date [circa 1930]. Format oblong, 36 x 27 cm. En feuilles de papier fort, reliées par une fine cordelette torsadée sous une couverture portant sur le premier plat le nom complet, le chiffre et la localisation de l'entreprise inscrits en doré sur fond bordeaux. 36 feuillets. Rare et important catalogue orné de 406 chromolithographies (9 x 5 cm) présentant de nombreuses variétés de semences pour l'horticulture, classées par catégories et par ordre alphabétique : légumes, fruits (tomates uniquement) et fleurs. Ces échantillons d'étiquettes de sachets de graines, aux couleurs très vives sur fond noir, sont artistiquement disposés en étoiles sur les pages de papier fort, imprimées en gris clair de cadres servant au placement des vignettes et, au centre, d'une composition florale ornant le monogramme de l'entreprise. A raison de 6 par page en moyenne, - exceptionnellement 4 ou 5 -, les images sont chacune scrupuleusement légendées en caractères blancs. Ce superbe album, aussi instructif pour le maraîcher professionnel que pour le jardinier du dimanche, propose une diversité considérable de plantes, issues des terroirs français, parfois bien oubliées aujourd'hui : pas moins de 10 sortes de chicorées, 11 de carottes, 27 de choux, 23 de laitue, 14 de navets, 19 de radis, sont ainsi présentées. La partie consacrée aux fleurs s'avère majoritaire en termes d'illustrations : 206 chromos, de l'acrolinium varié au zinnia du Mexique hybride, offrent à l'oeil du client, par leur mise en scène et leurs couleurs éclatantes, la perspective d'un rendu magnifique, qui ne peut qu'inciter à l'achat !
