[BURNET (Sir Thomas)]MareMagnum

A Second Tale of a Tub: or, The History of Robert Powel the Puppet-Show-Man.

First Edition, imprimatur leaf, engraved frontispiece, [4], 219, [5] pp., contemporary panelled calf, hinges partly cracked, label, a nice copy. Written by the judge, traveller, diplomatist and pamphleteer, Sir Thomas Burnet, (with the collaboration of George Duckett). In fact the correspondence between Burnet and Duffett (Roxburghe 1914) makes it clear that this was a joint production. This political satire on the statesman Robert Harley, Earl of Oxford, is far from being destitute of wit and humour and takes the form of an account of Martin Powell (fl.1709-29), the somewhat physically deformed showman who ran a celebrated puppet-show in Covent Garden. It also, of course, adopts the title of Swift's celebrated 'Tale of a Tub' (but is not recorded by Teerink-Scouten in the list of this work's spurious sequels etc.).

DICKINSON E. E. Co. Essex Connecticut. x Connecticut. Company Ledger for Dickinson Witch Hazel Extract November 1903–February 1906.

19031220251965DICKINSON E. E. Co. Essex Connecticut. Company Ledger for Dickinson's Witch Hazel Co. 1903–1906.Large folio ledger approx. 20 x 12 in. contemporary half calf over ribbed cloth gilt-lettered spine; marbled endpapers with original Dickinson's Witch Hazel advertising labels. Several hundred pages extensively filled in a neat clerical hand; minor wear to binding internally clean and legible throughout. A substantial early 20th-century business ledger documenting the operations of the E. E. Dickinson Company one of the most prominent American producers of witch hazel extract during a period of established national distribution. Entries record "Cash Received" and "Cash Paid" detailing transactions with druggists wholesalers and regional firms with columns for freight discounts and credit structures offering a clear view of the firm's commercial network and accounting practices. Founded in 1875 by Edward E. Dickinson Sr. building on earlier developments by the Rev. Thomas N. Dickinson the company expanded into the dominant force in the trade at one point supplying a substantial portion of the world's witch hazel. The present volume reflects that scale capturing the routine mechanics of a mature manufacturing enterprise operating within a national market. Retaining original Dickinson's advertising labels the ledger underscores the firm's developed brand identity and provides an unusually vivid and well-preserved record of American pharmaceutical commerce at scale. hardcover

This work is a translation of Court's "Aanwissing der heilsams politike Gronden en Maximen van de Republike van Holland", of 1699, which is in turn is an unauthorised revision and enlargement of his "Interest van Holland." of 1662.

Hardcover, bound in contemporary marbled boards, spine with crimson morocco label lettered in gilt, date gilt stamped on foot. Fine, handsome copy. ~ First edition. Later editions followed, among them those printed in Amsterdam. Gabriel François, abbé Coyer, was a French man of letters and worldly cleric born in 1707. He entered the Society of Jesus, studying humanities and philosophy until he left the order in 1736. In 1741 he became private tutor to the young Duke of Bouillon (Prince of Turenne at the time). There followed public functions that saw him in attendance at some battles of the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-48). His many works include a history of the Polish king Jan Sobieski, travel accounts of Holland and Italy, a study of ancient religions, belles-lettres, and a popular attack on the guild system, Chinki. He became a member of the Royal Academy of England and the Academy of Nancy. It is said that when he visited Voltaire at Ferney and announced his desire to return each year for three months, Voltaire replied that whereas Don Quixote had mistaken inns for castles, Coyer was mistaking castles for inns. He died in 1782. (See Henry C. Clarke: "Commerce, Culture, and Liberty: Readings on Capitalism before Adam Smith", Indianapolis, 2003.)
