[MAXWELL (John)]
An Essay upon Tune. Being an attempt to free the Scale of Music, and the Tune of Instruments, from Imperfection.
First edition, 8vo (200 x 122 mm), iv, 290, [2]pp., with final errata leaf, 19 folding engraved plates, some light offsetting, minor browning from turn-ins, contemporary tree calf, smooth spine ruled in gilt, black leather lettering piece, joints slightly cracked otherwise a fine copy. The work was published anonymously and was long attributed to the English clergyman, the Rev. Francis Kelly Maxwell (1729-1782). However, it has recently been attributed to John Maxwell who was a property manager in Scotland for Sir William Pulteney and an amateur violinist. "In the 'Essay upon Tune' Maxwell presented his discovery to the public, namely, a division of the octave into forty-four distant pitches with the mechanism to enable an organ to produce these pitches."?Kassler. Provenance: Ownership inscription and bookplate of Sir Michael R. Shaw-Stewart, 7th Baronet (1826-1903). Kassler, The Science of Music, pp.760-1.

Saginaw MI & Indianapolis IN: Trippensee Planetarium Co. George F. Cram Co. ca. 1964. Planetarium Orrery stands 12.5 in. tall at the top of the central Sun made from yellow plastic mounts on a 7.5 in. diameter moulded plastic base the model extends 22 in. when fully extended with Mercury on opposite side of the Sun from Moon extending out from central Earth.

Moulded plastic base has iron weight bolted underneath minor closed crack to the outer fore-edge of the base minor rippling to paint finish at base chipping to plastic bushing at base of Earth & Lunar globes still an exceptional piece in beautiful working condition. The Trippensee Planetarium tellurion or “Elementary Planetarium†has been produced for over 90 years and offers a wonderful astronomical mechanism depicting how day night and the seasons are caused by the movement of the Earth on its axis and its orbit around the Sun. It shows solar and lunar eclipses the motion of Venus in relation to the Sun and the rotation. The globe shows the major continents and cities with no internal political divisions except for the continental United States & Alaska shaded in green on the North American continent. The Tellurion or Tellurium was patented by Alexander Laing originally in 1897 as an educational device to be used in schools. He set up operations in Detroit MI and was later bought out by the Trippensee brothers who introduced their own version with a more reliable bicycle-style chain and gear drive and they sold them steadily. In order to further diversify the company they also built the Eddie Rickenbacker automobile for the E-M-F Company until 1927 when the Everitt Company went under. Trippensee brothers moved later to Saginaw Michigan where they occupied a three-story building at the corner of Cass and South Hamilton staying in business until 1999 when they were purchased by Science First. Their Orrery planetariums were made originally from wood and brass then Bakelite and finally plastics. See: Mark Theobald Coachbuiltcom Trippensee Manufacturing Company Rickenbacker Motors.

Illustrating and describing the superior line of assay and analytical balances. Catalogue A. Manufactured by. . . .
Denver CO: Wm. Ainsworth 2151 Lawrence St. 1898. Oblong 8vo. 24 pp. Text illustrations & diagrams throughout. Pink-coloured printed softcovers cover art of assayers scale on front and back covers minor shelfwear minor tidemark to upper fore-edges slight sunning still VG- copy w/ original printed mailing envelope addressed to Joe Seliger 1868-1947 former stenographer secretary and metalworker for Honeyman Hardware Co. Portland OR. First edition of this very rare catalogue detailing the precision balances for mineral assayers manufacturers chemists jewelers and pulp paper makers. Ainsworth 1850-1917 began as a fine watchmaker steam engineer toolmaker and distiller who moved to Denver in 1877 where he initially began working for A.B. Ingols Jewelry. By the 1880s he was operating a jewelry store repairing balance scales for miners and assayers because at the time these were produced in England and required months of turnaround time for them to be shipped back and repaired prior to Ainsworth. Ainsworth developed his own excellent balance as presented in this catalogue which featured a shortened balance beam speeding up the assaying process and were much preferred by Western assay offices and miners. He continued to operate as a watchmaker and clock repairer but by 1895 began producing Brunton’s newly patented Pocket Transit which together with the balances proved to be a very successful combination with his first Catalogues A & B depicting both products issued in 1898. The company would continue to grow after his death and would be purchased by Xavier Science Corporation and now owned by the Denver Instrument Company.

A cura di E. Pessot, con una breve introduzione di A. Zanzotto.
Cronaca di una favola chiamata musica. Biografia artistica di Egida Sartori (1910-1999).
cm. 17 x 24, x-252 pp. con 30 ill. f.t. Fondazione Giorgio Cini - Studi di musica veneta - Archivio Egidia Sartori La biografia artistica di Egida Sartori ? stata ripercorsa in questo volume attingendo alle fonti documentarie originali, in specie lettere e copialettere. Viene pertanto cos? ricostruita, per cos? dire ?dal vero?, la carriera di una personalit? che si rivela fondamentale nella storia della creazione di una scuola italiana dedita al revival della musica barocca e del ritorno in spirito neoclassico al repertorio della letteratura clavicembalistica. La biografia di Egida Sartori si presenta arricchita da una memoria introduttiva di Andrea Zanzotto. This volume traces the artistic biography of Egida Sartori on the basis of original documents, in particular letters and draft copies. It thus provides a ?true? picture of a central figure in the revival of Baroque music in Italy and the ?neoclassical? return to the early harpsichord repertories. Egida Sartori?s biography is preceded by an introduction in which Andrea Zanzotto remembers the musician. 524 gr. x-252 p.
