‎DARWIN, Charles, & Alfred Russel Wallace‎

‎The Darwin-Wallace Celebration held on Thursday 1st July 1908 by the Linnean Society of London.‎

‎London: printed for the Linnean Society 1908. Marking fifty years of evolutionary theory First and only edition of this commemorative volume in the strikingly gilt-stamped original cloth. It celebrates the proposal of the theory of evolution described in the words of the Linnean Society's then president Dukinfield Henry Scott as "without doubt the greatest event in the history of our Society since its foundation" p. 1. The grand event marked the fiftieth anniversary of the presentation of Darwin and Wallace's papers on natural selection first read to the society in 1858 by Charles Lyell and Joseph Hooker. Both papers are here reprinted in full alongside the event programme the list of attendees of the celebratory dinner the general meeting minutes and summaries of the special lantern demonstrations delivered during the evening. Of particular interest is a detailed account of the objects exhibited in the library which comprised natural history specimens illustrating variation across species. The event took place at the Institution of Civil Engineers because the Society's rooms in Burlington House were not large enough to hold the number of scientists in attendance. Attendees also included members of the Darwin family representatives of scientific societies and several foreign ministers. Wallace was the first recipient of the Darwin-Wallace medal; six similarly influential evolutionary biologists - including Hooker Galton and Haeckel - received silver versions. It was also issued in wrappers. Octavo. Portrait frontispiece of Darwin 9 plates 7 of which portraits with corresponding facsimile signatures. Original cream cloth spine lettered in gilt medallic portraits of Darwin and Wallace stamped in gilt on front cover black endpapers top edge gilt. Cloth soiled spine darkened extremities rubbed gilt portraits bright cockling to endpapers foxing to contents and edges: a very good copy. Freeman 353. hardcover‎
