(Agnew, Spiro). Prince Moulay Abdullah Ben Mohammad of Morocco (1935-1983).
TYPED LETTER SIGNED in MAGHREBI SCRIPT by PRINCE ABDULLAH BEN MOHAMMAD of MOROCCO.
Rabat Morocco August 16 1971. 1971. - Over 140 words typed in French on the Prince's 8-1/4 inch high by 6-1/8 inch wide royal stationery with a crown above Maghrebi script printed in indigo at top right. In his letter addressed to Vice President Spiro Agnew's chief of staff Arthur Sohmer Prince Moulay Abdallah of Morocco requests that Art Sohmer convey his warm regards and thanks to the Vice President for sending him a physical therapist "Je vous prie de transmettre a Monsieur le Vice-President S. AGNEW mes chaleureux remerciements pour la delicate attention qu'il a eue a mon egard en depechant aupres de moi un reeducateur". Vice President Agnew visited King Hassan II of Morocco on July 25th 1971 only a couple weeks after the attempted coup during which Prince Moulay Abdullah of Morocco was wounded. The prince goes on to praise the skills and personality of the therapist which the Vice President had sent him and apologizes for not having been able to attend the dinner which the American Ambassador had hosted in the Vice President's honor. He further expresses his thanks to Art Sohmer for the latter's own personal contribution and gesture of friendship: "Je tiens a vous remercier pour votre contribution personnelle a ce geste si amical qui m'a particulierement touche". Signed by Prince Moulay Abdullah in Maghrebi script. The letter is creased at the corners and stapled to the original mailing envelope with the oval red ink seal of the prince's "Secretariat Particulier" with the prince's name above the image of the Prince's crown. The envelope also bear's the Office of the Vice President's blue stamp. The Department of State's stamp together with the October 14th date is stamped in blue on the verso of the letter. Penciled at the top left of the letter is a request for a translation likely written by Art Sohmer: "State: Translation & suggested reply if appropriate".<p>Accompanying Prince Moulay Abdullah's letter which was written in French is an official "Office of the Vice President / Referral" form addressed to Mr. James L. Carson director of the State Department's Secretarial Staff. This form dated October 12 1971 and signed by Major P.D. Slack the Marine Corps Aide to the Vice President requests that the letter be translated for Art Sohmer and the Vice President's benefit. The translation typed on 10-1/2 inch high by 8 inch wide "Department of State Division of Language Services" letterhead accompanies the letter. A referral number is stamped at the top of the Prince's letter as well as at the top of the referral form and the translation references this number. <p>The brother of King Hassan II of Morocco Prince Moulay Abdullah of Morocco 1935-1983 was married to Lamia Solh the daughter of Lebanon's first Prime Minister. On July 10 1971 General Mohamed Medbouh who was disillusioned by King Hassan's light treatment of staff members who were shown to have been shaking down foreign companies and convinced that the King may himself be involved led a coup attempt. Conspiring with other military officers Medbouh enlisted a force of 1200 cadets to storm the palace during the King's birthday reception where according to different sources between 400 to 800 guests were present. 92 people were killed in the attempted coup and many more injured including Prince Moulay Abdullah Ben Mohammad. Royalist troops overcame the rebels killing more than a hundred cadets and capturing another 900 and their officers. Two weeks later on July 25 1971 Vice President Agnew visited Morocco. In his book "Hunting the President: Threats Plots and Assassination Attempts." Mel Ayton quotes Chuck Vance who served on President Ford's protective detail and who described the risks of foreign visits by U.S. Presidents & Vice Presidents: "There's going to be some razzle dazzle so people aren't quite clear who to attack. They'll have military personnel everywhere: frogmen ships and aircraft. I called in a whole naval fleet one time in a Moroccan visit for Vice President Agnew because of political uncertainties" no doubt referring to this visit. It was during this visit that Agnew referred or sent the physical therapist to the Prince. Prince Moulay Abdullah who was a favorite of his father passed away from cancer in 1983 at the age of 48. Stade Moulay Abdullah stadium was named after him.<p>Spiro T. Agnew 1918-1996 was Governor of Maryland and Vice President of the United States under Nixon. He was indicted for tax fraud and forced to resign.<p>The recipient Arthur J. Sohmer 1926-1991 was Chief-of-Staff to Vice President Spiro T. Agnew. Rabat, Morocco, August 16, 1971. unknown

Old owner entry at top margin title memorial label at front paste-down. A very good copy amply-margined with fine crisp text throughout.<br /> <br /> Important edition of this Aramaic version of the biblical books of Chronicles attributed to Joseph ben Hiyya d. 333 a Babylonian amora and head of the Pumbedita academy near present-day Falluja Iraq. "Ben Hiyya was also distinguished in biblical exegesis and left an Aramaic translation of parts of the Bible which is often quoted. It is not to be assumed however that Joseph translated the whole Bible though the Aramaic translation of the Books of Chronicles is ascribed to him. Enc. Jud. The editio princeps edited from an Erfurt manuscript by Matthias Frederick Beck and accompanied by substantial annotations was published at Augsburg in 1680. "After this David Wilkins gave the public an edition from a Cambridge manuscript of which the text was more pure and more complete. The critic should unite both these editions the former for the value of its learned notes and the latter for its full and accurate text†The Biblical Repertory. <br /> <br /> The Coptic scholar David Wilkens 1685–1745 was born of Prussian parentage in Memel Lithuania. Little is known about his education in Germany probably in Berlin or how he acquired his knowledge of ancient and Semitic languages which was extensive rather than profound. He referred to the antiquarian Ezechiel Spanheim the elector of Brandenburg's ambassador in England from 1701 to 1710 as his former teacher. By 1707 Wilkins was studying at the Bodleian Library in Oxford and had encountered a group of clerical protectors in London. In 1709 engaged in preparing a history of the patriarchs of Alexandria which remained in manuscript and the editio princeps of the Coptic Bohairic New Testament the Novum Testamentum Aegyptium 1716 he left for the continent. He called on scholars examined manuscripts in Vienna Rome and Paris and stopped in Amsterdam in 1714 to see to the publication of his first works -- an edition of the Aramaic paraphrasis of the books of Chronicles and an Armenian version of the apocryphal third epistle to the Corinthians 1715 -- and of John Chamberlayne's polyglot edition of the Lord's prayer to which he contributed. Wilkins was an industrious scholar. In the three years he spent as librarian at Lambeth he made important contributions to the cataloguing of manuscripts. In 1721 he edited the Anglo-Saxon laws in 1725–6 the complete works of John Selden and in 1731 the Coptic Pentateuch. His main work was his Concilia Magnae Britanniae et Hiberniae an account of British church councils from 446 to 1717. Wilkins had many detractors -- John Gagnier the professor of Arabic at Oxford who deplored his incompetence in Arabic and Hebrew Edward Harley who described him as ‘a very great scoundrel’ and the cantankerous Thomas Hearne who as librarian at the Bodleian had watched him turn from a young man ‘of a civil Courteous and modest behaviour’ into ‘a vain ambitious man of little judgement tho' great industry’ ready to ‘do anything in the World for a little Money’ Alastair Hamilton: "Wilkens David" -- ODNB online.<br /> <br /> Provenance: From the library of G.H.A.

Original color-illustrated paper wrappers bound in. Housed in matching morocco-lipped slipcase. Title page and three section titles with elaborate Islamic frames printed in colors 41 COLOR ILLUSTRATIONS BY ÉTIENNE DINET nine of them full-page nine double-page. All text with decorative frames printed in green. ◆Spine just faintly and evenly sunned but A BEAUTIFUL COPY SPARKLING INSIDE AND OUT.<br/> <br/> This collection of stories of life in the Sahara Desert is not only in a sumptuous binding but its color illustrations are printed with such skill that they seem very much like original paintings. French Orientalist painter Étienne Dinet 1861-1929 met his Arabic teacher and closest friend Sliman ben Ibrahim 1870-1953 in Algeria in 1889 when Sliman saved the painter from an ambush. Sliman accompanied Dinet to Paris in 1896 where the latter met the French Society of Oriental Painters and impressed them with both his character and his couscous. Sliman and Dinet collaborated on several other works including a biography of Mohammed and an account of the Hajj they made to Mecca after Dinet's conversion to Islam. The gorgeous binding by Henri Blanchetière 1881-1933 utilizes rich jewel tones scalloped edges and complex gilt scrolling patterns calling to mind Islamic art and architecture and echoing Dinet's beautiful designs used inside the book. After training with Marcellin Lortic and René Kieffer Blanchetière took over the atelier of binder Joseph Brétault in 1906 at which time "he aligned himself with Marius-Michel in the pursuit of a modern binding style inspired by nature. His designs incorporated a cautious blend of Art Nouveau flowers" and "after World War I he gradually cut his remaining ties to traditionalism." Duncan & De Bartha As a craftsman of artistic fine bindings Blanchetière ranks with Kieffer and Charles Meunier but his bindings are less commonly seen in the marketplace. H. Piazza unknown

(BINDINGS - OTTO SCHULZE). SLIMAN BEN IBRAHIM, BAAMER. ETIENNE DINET, Illustrator
RABIÂ EL KOULOUB OU LE PRINTEMPS DES COEURS
Paris: H. Piazza et Cie 1902. No. 248 OF 260 COPIES on papier vélin from a total edition of 300. 248 x 178 mm. 9 3/4 x 7". 175 1 pp. 1 leaf colophon. <br/> EXTRAVAGANT BLUE MOROCCO GILT AND INLAID BY OTTO SCHULZE stamp-signed on front turn-in covers with a very decorative gilt frame enclosing a Moorish design featuring a lobed central panel framed by a strip of terra cotta morocco inlaid with 96 black morocco and gilt flowers and between this and the outer frame a panel of lilac morocco inlaid with swirls of gilt vines terminating in 22 red blossoms; raised bands spine gilt in compartments with central fleuron surrounded by small tools and five inlaid red morocco flowers inner dentelles with brown morocco frame flanked by large and small decorative gilt rolls top edge gilt other edges untrimmed. Original color-illustrated paper wrappers bound in at the rear. With decorative borders enclosing text and with 58 CHROMOLITHOGRAPHED ILLUSTRATIONS BY DINET consisting of title page and three section titles four head- or tailpieces 41 illustrations in the text and nine full-page plates. Verso of front free endpaper with bookplate of John R. Menzies. Carteret IV 140. ◆Spine lightly sunned one tiny spot on half title but A VERY FINE COPY clean fresh and bright internally and in a binding with no signs of wear.<br/> <br/> This is a strikingly bound deluxe copy of the first book produced by the French Orientalist painter Étienne Dinet and his Arabic teacher and closest friend Sliman ben Ibrahim. The text of three Saharan folktales related here by Sliman are illustrated with Dinet's sensuous watercolors and the whole is bound with great animation and skill by Otto Schulze of Edinburgh. Dinet and Sliman met in Algeria in 1889 when Sliman saved the painter from an ambush. Sliman accompanied Dinet to Paris in 1896 where he met the French Society of Oriental Painters and impressed them with both his character and his couscous. Sliman and Dinet also collaborated on a biography of Mohammed and an account of the Hajj they made after Dinet's conversion to Islam. The binding here is reminiscent of an Oriental carpet and echoes Dinet's beautiful designs used inside the book. Operating during the first 10 or 15 years of the 20th century Otto Schulze was an Edinburgh publisher whose books sometimes appeared in bindings said to have been done by him. As in the case of other publishers and booksellers such bindings often were done for rather than by the party whose name is stamp-signed on the volume. Bindings signed by Schulze are consistently attractive but are not common: since 1975 ABPC has listed six such morocco bindings two of them described as "elaborate" or "extra." Since our volume says that the binding is by--and not for--Schulze we can only assume that our publisher had an in-house binder. From 1906 until his death in 1935 our previous owner John R. Menzies was chairman of John Menzies & Co. founded in Edinburgh in 1833 by his father. The firm sold books magazines and newspapers becoming with W. H. Smith one of two major newsagents in the United Kingdom in the 20th century until bought out by its rival in 1990. H. Piazza et Cie unknown
