With wartimerationing and fabrics in short supply these fashionmannequins offered an excellent means to train youngwomen. Perhaps the most significant aspect of thesefashion dolls was that matching patterns could bepurchased from Simplicity in adult sizes as well somothers and daughters could sit side by side and sewthe same dress fit their respective mannequins orcrochet miniature hats. The Miniature Fashion SewingBook is exceedingly scarce and instructions called forthe same construction used in adult sewing: intricateshaping with darts and tucks side placket openingsfacings and lapels with no simplifying of instructionsfor young hands. Typically these kits were purchasedwith just the doll and possibly the dress form and acouple sewing kit pieces but more elaborate ones likethis would have extra trays for holding fashionscompleted extra supplies and lots of room foradditional patterns. This present kit includes severalfinished pieces by the young fashion designer --muslin blouse & apron cotton colour percale apron aslip a strapless red silk evening dress w/ black lacetrim a red striped sundress and the doll is dressed inan excellent miniature representation of a Women’sArmy Auxiliary Corps uniform. These MiniatureFashion Mannequins continued to be heavilymarketed into the early 1950s and paved the way forfuture adult fashion dolls such as Barbie and thosesimilar which followed.

AN ILLUMINATED VELLUM MANUSCRIPT LEAF WITH A SMALL MINIATURE FROM A BOOK OF HOURS IN LATIN
TEXT FROM "O INTEMERATA.
Northeastern France probably Arras late 15th century. 146 x 95 mm. 5 3/4 x 3 3/4". Single column 15 lines in a pleasing bâtarde hand. Rubrics in red one one-line initial in brushed gold on a red ground EACH SIDE OF LEAF WITH A BRUSHED GOLD PANEL BORDER WITH VERY PRETTY ILLUSIONISTIC FLOWERS AND ONE BIRD; WITH ONE SMALL MINIATURE measuring approximately 40 x 25 mm. depicting the Virgin and Child. Headlines written in French in a later 18th century calligraphic hand. Light soiling gold a little rubbed portions of the Virgin's face and robe noticeably chipped and the details of the Child entirely rubbed away but still an attractive leaf generally clean and smooth with ample margins and bright color. From a charmingly decorated 15th century prayer book this leaf contains one of the most beloved prayers in the Book of Hours in which the petitioner addresses the Virign Mary directly. The accompanying miniature features the classic image of the Madonna shown here in full length cradling the Child in her arms. Given the popularity of the "O Intermerata" prayer within the Books of Hours it is not surprising that some of the paint has been degraded due to frequent use; but although the details have been obscured the meaning is clear and it is touching to think of the Medieval owners referring to this section for solace comfort time and time again. For other leaves from this same manuscript please check our website. unknown

AN ILLUMINATED VELLUM MANUSCRIPT LEAF WITH A SMALL MINIATURE FROM A BOOK OF HOURS IN LATIN

Rubrics in red one one-line initial in brushed gold on a red ground EACH SIDE OF LEAF WITH A BRUSHED GOLD PANEL BORDER WITH VERY PRETTY ILLUSIONISTIC FLOWERS; WITH ONE SMALL MINIATURE measuring approximately 40 x 25 mm. depicting God the Father. Headlines written in French in a later 18th century calligraphic hand. Light soiling rubrics faded gold somewhat dulled the frame around the miniature a bit chipped and the lower half the figure's face without paint questionable as to whether this was a choice by the artist as it rather resembles a white beard but these issues mostly minor and one the whole a very nice specimen generally clean and smooth with ample margins and bright color. From a charmingly decorated 15th century prayer book this lovely leaf offers the opportunity to acquire a particularly nice miniature with considerable gold ornamentation at an attainable price. The text here comes from prayers addressed to God the Father which would have been proceeded by prayers to the Son and Holy Spirit to complete the Trinity. The accompanying image shows God enthroned above the clouds holding an orb in one hand and wearing a strikingly bright red robe.

AN ILLUMINATED VELLUM MANUSCRIPT LEAF WITH A SMALL MINIATURE FROM A BOOK OF HOURS IN LATIN
TEXT FROM OBSECRO TE
Northeastern France probably Arras late 15th century. 146 x 95 mm. 5 3/4 x 3 3/4". Single column 15 lines in a pleasing bâtarde hand. One one-line initial in brushed gold on a red ground EACH SIDE OF LEAF WITH A BRUSHED GOLD PANEL BORDER WITH VERY PRETTY ILLUSIONISTIC FLOWERS; WITH ONE SMALL MINIATURE measuring approximately 40 x 25 mm. depicting the Virgin and Child. Headlines written in French in a later 18th century calligraphic hand. A little general soiling gold a bit dulled and rubbed margins with a scattering of naturally occuring freckles and a small wrinkle underdrawing exposed on the Virgin's hands face and torso as well as on the body of Christ paint possibly never added in the first place but still quite an attractive specimen and of interest for its unfinished appearance. From a charmingly decorated 15th century prayer book this leaf contains one of the most beloved prayers in the Book of Hours in which the petitioner addresses the Virign Mary directly. The accompanying image showing the Virgin in prayer with the Child on her lap is common for this section but on our leaf it takes on new interest due to the lack of paint on much of the figures exposing the original drawing underneath. Though it is possible that the paint was rubbed away through use or damage the sharp lines retained by her outer garment suggest that it was either never added or was perhaps carefully scratched away with the intention to fix or change this part of the image. Whatever the reason it presents an uncommon opportunity to study the underdrawing that would otherwise be obscured in the final stages of manuscript production. For other leaves from this same manuscript please check our website. unknown

Botanical Illustrations of the Twenty-Four Classes in the Linnaean System of Vegetables By Select Specimens of English Plants
London: Printed for Darton Harvey and Darton. 1813. FIRST EDITION. 16mo 77 x 58 mms. pp. iv 96 48 hand-coloured engraved plates later sheepskin with old gilt spine laid down new end-papers. The British Critic for 1813 was very happy with this work: "After labouring through multitudes of terrific volumes in royal and imperial quarto it is incredible with what pleasure we descend to a pretty little pocket piece two inches square the exact size ! ed. of the present volume which we consider as one of the neatest compendiums of botanical science which we remember to have seen. The plates are well executed the drawings accurately coloured and the descriptions both scientific and correct and all within two inches square my italics." Well reviewers can't all be acquainted with arithmetical accuracy or to know what a dangling participle is. London: Printed for Darton, Harvey, and Darton..., 1813 unknown
