MEYER, Rudolf and Hieronymus
Erste Besteigung des Jungfrau. Gletschers in der Schweiz. [First Ascent of Jungfrau Glacier in Switzerland.] ...
..... Reise auf den Jungfrau-Gletscher und Ersteigung seines Gipfels, durch die Herrn Rudolf Meyer und Hieron. [Travel to Jungfrau Glacier and Climbing its Summit, by Mr. Rudolf Meyer and Hieron.] Weitere Nachricht über die Reise der Gebrüder Meyer auf den Jungfrau-Gletscher. [More News about the Journey of the Meyer Brothers to the Jungfrau Glacier.] Three seperate reports in 37 pages. Text is in German. A scarce primary source account of the first ascent of the Jungfrau Glacier. This is a complete monthly issue, containing 383 pages, from which 37 pages are related to the above mentioned account. Attractively bound in period style brown cloth over blue marbled boards, titled in gilt to spine. This issue contains three separate contemporary reports on the first successful ascent of Jungfrau, a well-known Swiss mountain dominating the Lauterbrunnen valley, by two Swiss brothers, Rudolf and Hieronymus Meyer, who were accompanied by two chamois hunters from the Valais. The summit was first reached on the eastern or Valais side, on August 3, 1811, almost 100 years prior to the construction of the remarkable Jungfraujoch railway in 1912. They first had to reach the Aletschfirn, or the west branch of the Aletsch Glacier, and established a base camp north of the Aletschhorn. After 3 days climbing they successfully reached the summit. Their ascent was disputed, motivating them to repeat it the following September. Used the same route to demonstrate their inital and continued success, this time they carried a flag with them. These are the original pages printed in 1811, and NOT a reprint. This narrative is from a rare multi-volume geographical and scientific journal titled "Allgemeine Geographische Ephemeriden", which issued fifty volumes from 1798-1816 and which encompassed critical contemporary topics of geography and astronomy. Adam Christian Gaspari and Franz Xaver von Zach were editors of this important scientific journal.

Meyerson Daniel
THE LINGUIST AND THE EMPEROR Napoleon and Champollion's Quest to Decipher the Rosetta Stone
Ballantine Books. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2004. First Edition. Hardcover. 0345450671 . Ex-library book but still in great condition - brodart cover and usual ex-lib type markings such as front and spine sticker. Pages clean and tight a little scuffing to cover bumping to corners. Only light wear overall. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 288 pages; The deciphering of the Rosetta stone was one of the great intellectual triumphs of all time unlocking the secrets of thousands of years of Egypt�s ancient civilization. Yet in the past two centuries the circumstances surrounding this bravura feat of translation have become shrouded in myth and mystery. Now in his spellbinding new book Daniel Meyerson recounts the extraordinary true story of how the lives of two geniuses converged in a breakthrough that revolutionized our understanding of the past. The emperor Napoleon and the linguist Jean-Francois Champollion were both blessed with the temperament of artists and damned with ferocious impatience�and both of them were obsessed with Egypt. In fact it was Napoleon�s dazzling disastrous Egyptian campaign that caught the attention of the young Champollion and forever changed his life. From the instant Champollion learned of Napoleon�s discovery of a stone inscribed with three sets of characters�Greek Coptic and hieroglyphic�he could not rest. He vowed to be the first to crack the mystery of what became known as the Rosetta stone. 417-noto . Ballantine Books hardcover

Michael Birk - Early Lithographie
Product and Packaging Catalog of the German Pharmaceutical and Medical Supply Firm, Mich.G.Birk GmbH & Co.
Extensive and complete product catalog of the German pharmaceutical and medical supply firm Mich.G.Birk GmbH & Co. [predecessor to today's BIRK Rundkartonagen GmbH & Co. KG], a highly reputable global firm established in Germany by wainwright [wagon maker] Michael Birk in 1879, designed for the private use of a single client. 8vo. 580 pages of text [double-leaf pagination tallies 290], xxxi (index), plus 20 pages colour chromolithographed frontispiece illustrations of sample labels ads - some of which are fold-outs, plus 9 pages of actual label samples mounted to the leafs. Text is complete in four languages - German, English, French, and Spanish, with the foremost leaf of proprietorship adding also Portuguese. Publisher's original illustrated binding, brown cloth titled in gilt and black lettering to front and spine, "Mich.Birk. Tuttlingen Deutschland. Katalog No.4." Occasional finger markings in the margins of five leaves only, specifically from the person who manually mounted the adhesive labels, otherwise in Near Fine condition, seldom seen complete, and in such pristine never-used condition, an exceedingly scarce volume in this state. Volumes such as this would have been issued to a specific client, for their own reference only. The following simple agreement is printed in five languages to the first leaf: "This list is to remain the property of the firm of Mich. Birk of Tuttlingen and only Mr._______ has been entrusted with the sole use of it. Reprints prohibited, will be prosecuted by law." The present volume was not assigned to anyone and remains as new, in original condition. Interestingly, the "Terms of Business" which prefaces the first section of product, is written in such a way that reveals the very personalized service offered by the owner of the firm, in spite of being an international success by this time. A pleasing repository of 1920s marketing of products from around the globe offered by the respected long-standing and leading packaging firm of Michael Birk - from a brief period when they also offered medical and surgical instruments, equipment and even laboratory furniture. It was in 1920 that Michael Birk expanded his export trade overseas and established offices in Mexico and South America, at the same time offering global distribution of products and instruments for the medical technology industry, from renowned manufacturers located in Tuttlingen, Germany. He also introduced significantly advanced offerings to his clients, such as grease-proof cardboard ointment containers, embossed colour labels according to individual customer requirements. [After the Second World War, global economics caused the firm to return its focus entirely to the development and production of packaging.] The present volume is a fine survivor of this pinnacle period in the firm's history, and an exceedingly scarce find in its pristine condition.
