[Arabic epistolography].
A collection of more than 170 autograph Arabic letters. Algiers & Algeria, ca. 1770-1860, the bulk dated 1830-1850.
Small folio (ca 24 x 30 cm). Ca. 170 letters in Algerian Arabic, pasted to 100 numbered leaves. Contemporary papered boards (severely rubbed and bumped) with remnants of a green calfskin spine. A vast ensemble of handwritten letters in Arabic, assembled by the Franco-Algerian typesetter A. Duchâteau who used the collection both to perfect his command of practical Arabic in various local dialects and as a typographical style guide. Most of the letters were written by local dignitaries, including Beys, Kaïds, Sheikhs, provincial leaders and village chiefs. To obtain them, Duchâteau must have drawn upon various sources such as his own relations and other Algerian families, the French community, and the military. About a third of the letters include Duchâteau's French translations or at least notes about their origin, giving dates or details of their content or identifying the recipient. - Duchâteau worked as typesetter for the Algiers-based "Bastide" printing house in the early 1850s. Specializing in Arabic typography, he was especially close to Louis-Jacques Bresnier (1814-69), the first professor of Arabic in Algiers. It was Duchâteau who attended to the printing of the Arabic parts of Bresnier's chrestomathies and language guides, and it is apparent that the album also served as documentation for the professor's own publications, such as his "Chrestomathie arabe: lettres, actes, et pièces diverses" (1857). In the preface to his "Cours pratique et théorique de langue arabe", published by Bastide in 1855, Bresnier explains that his work could only be realized thanks to the talent of Duchâteau: "Two modest and excellent artists, Messrs. Ch. Portmann, lithographer, and A. Duchateau, an Arabic typesetter, understood and supported the author's work with remarkable intelligence and skill." - Some of these letters are of great historical interest, enabling us to trace in them the frequently poorly-documented history of Algeria between the late 18th and mid 19th century. The ensemble includes, inter alia, a letter from the Bey of Constantine, Hussein Bey (1807); letters addressed to Napoleon III, who is referred to as "Sultan" and "Lord Prefet"; a letter from a brotherhood leader asking permission to bring a number of faithful into his Zaouira; a document regarding the prisoners of Constantine; a letter from Mufti Hanefi of Constantine requesting the replacement of the hezzab of the mosque; letters from the interpreter Ismael Ben El Had Mohammed Amin El Sekkat, from Kaïd Belkaum Ben Minia, from Messrs. El Hadj Merouan & El Hadj ben Fouka, from Sid Said EI Hadj, a regional chief (1817), several letters to and from physicians, letters related to invitations, festivities and gatherings, requests to the authorities for intervention, commercial letters, and letters of thanks. A single letter in Hebrew is also included. Inserted at the beginning are 6 lithographed leaves of letter specimens as used by Bresnier in his courses, annotated by hand (likely that of Bresnier himself) with extensive remarks in French and Arabic on the vocabulary and phrasing. - An important source for the history of French Algeria and the history of Arabic typography in the mid-19th century.

[Artaria, Carl, artist, engraver, art dealer and publisher (1792-1866)].
Album of 71 mounted pencil and pen-and-ink drawings, mainly showing horses. No place, ca 1827-1836.
Small folio (235 x 290 mm). 20th century calf. A fine collection of sketch leaves by Carl Artaria, often dashed off on the reverse of old letters or forms, later cut out (likely by a 20th century member of the family) and thus assembled in the present album. Some of the sketches are dated (1827, 1828, 1833, 1836 etc.), others signed with the artist's "CA" monogram. The dominant theme is that of equestrianism and horsemanship (including many drawings of horses without riders, in landscapes or in military contexts, etc.), but there are also occasional hunting scenes, a caricature of a Turk firing a blunderbuss, etc. - Carl Artaria was a son of the long-established art seller and publisher Domenico Artaria from Mainz who in 1793 moved the business premises to Mannheim. Carl took over the company in 1816; it flourished until 1867. In the course of his business, Carl Artaria met many of Germany's great writers and illustrators, including Goethe. "In his youth he created etchings after W. Kobell und Boissieu [...] In his old age he began to draw the beauties of Mannheim's environs in meticulous watercolours" (cf. Thieme/Becker). - Occasional insignificant traces of handling, but in excellent state of preservation. Cf. Thieme/Becker I, 159.

There are also two charming ink sketches - one of Mt. Fuji - drawn by a friend named Y. Nakatsuka shortly before the Caigers' departure from Japan. Autographs include those of Australian diplomat H.

Regarding the recipient's letter to the Reader's Digest of September 24 Eastman had been hired as an editor for the conservative publication earlier in the same year. The subject appears to be the institution of the death penalty in the Soviet Union: ".Nobody questions the fact that the death penalty was decreed for theft of 'socialist property' and the extension of all penalties to children twelve years old automatically extends that one. I am sorry to say I can not tell you offhand when the previous decree was issued but I think it was the Spring of 1934. unknown

[Autograph album].
Autograph album of Alice Wagner (1914-1982). Vienna, 1925-1934.
4to (196 x 244 mm). 40 ff. (some blank) containing ca. 90 entries by writers, musicians, and actors, as well as by family members, teachers, and classmates. Original navy leather with gilt cover borders. All edges gilt. A fine document of a young autograph collector's passion for the world of the stage, and of the Viennese "World of Yesterday" described by Stefan Zweig, remarkable for its surprising number of eminent contributors. - Alice Wagner, born in Zadar, Croatia (then under Austrian rule) eight days before the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo, was the daughter of the mechanical engineer Rudolf Wagner and his wife Anna; she spent her childhood in Vienna's middle-class 9th district. The earliest contributors to her album - apparently a gift for her 11th birthday - are her teachers, school friends, and relatives, and after gathering a dozen of such entries between 1925 and 1929, her interest in her collection appears to have waned. Yet after a hiatus of a year, now aged nearly seventeen, Alice finds a new use for the navy-blue volume: clearly a devotee of the theatre and opera, she turns to pursuing the signatures of the great performers and writers of the stage. In 1931 she obtains the signatures of singers Käthe Dorsch and Hans-Heinz Bollmann, as well as of playwrights Anton Wildgans and of Christa Winsloe, who recommends to her young admirer the movie version of her play, "Mädchen in Uniform" (ignoring the age restriction passed on the then-notorious film). - In the year 1932 alone Alice gathers no fewer than 37 dated contributions, which include internationally prominent writers such as Thomas Mann, Ernst Toller, Erich Kästner, and Jakob Wassermann, but also Viennese celebrities such as Stefan Zweig, Felix Braun, Felix Salten, Richard Beer-Hofmann, Max Mell, Franz Theodor Csokor, Ernst Lothar, Franz Lehár, Robert Stolz, Hans Moser, Otto Tressler, and even the physician Julius Wagner-Jauregg. The most peculiar entry is that by the satirist Alexander Roda Roda, who - long a happily married man, first by common-law and then legally - signs himself as the 18-year-old Alice's "fiancé" on August 4th, at 7:27 p.m. precisely. Underneath this tongue-in-cheek inscription the cabaret artist Fritz Grünbaum adds his own name on 28 April 1933, whimsically appointing himself "best man"; and underneath his entry, the actor Paul Morgan adds his own name on 10 October 1933. Further contributors of the years 1933/34 include Max Brod, Arnold Zweig, Attila Hörbiger, Tilla Durieux, Oskar Maria Graf, and Paula Wessely; undated entries include Ernst Deutsch and Max Pallenberg, Bruno Walter, Karl Schönherr, and Ferdinand Bruckner. - Contributions dry up after 1934, possibly reflecting as much the now 21-year-old Alice's changing interests as the increasing political constraints on Viennese culture, first under Austro-fascism and then following the National Socialist "Anschluss". On 9 March 1939 the Wagners, who were Jewish, were evicted from their home in the well-to-do Ayrenhoffgasse and were forced to move into a "Jew house" in the third district, where Jewish tenants were concentrated before deportation. At their address at Untere Weißgerberstrasse 5, apartment 7, the Austrian Holocaust victims' database records six known victims aged between 7 and 71 years, all deported to Minsk in November 1941 and to Auschwitz in November 1942. Alice Wagner escaped the fate of her housemates (which was also that of several of the contributors to her album, such as her "best men" Fritz Grünbaum and Paul Morgan): in July 1941 she married a 40-year-old Romanian, left Vienna, and in March 1942 gave birth to a daughter. It is not known how the family survived the remaining war years, but they returned to Vienna in early 1947 and moved into a house in Berggasse, not far from Sigmund Freud's old office. Her parents, too, survived the Holocaust. Her album gives poignant evidence of the last flaring up of the old Viennese and German cultural scene before its collapse. - A detailed list of contributors is available upon request.

[Bach, Johann Sebastian]. - Doles, Johann Friedrich, composer and Cantor at St. Thomas (1715-1797).
"Johann Sebastian Bachs vierstimmige Choral-Gesänge gesammlet von Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach 1765." Contemporary manuscript copy of chorales by Bach and others. [Probably Leipzig, 1765-1775].
Oblong folio (340 x 202 mm). 272 written pages with a total of 252 numbered chorales (and 4 pages of empty pen-staves). Contemporary half calf over mottled boards with manuscript title label to upper cover. All edges sprinkled in red. Highly interesting collection of Bach chorales, very likely assembled from 1765 onwards at St. Thomas School, Leipzig under the direction of Johann Friedrich Doles, the student of and successor to Johann Sebastian Bach, who sought to make his master's works more widely known. According to an expert opinion included with the volume (ca. 1940), the late head of the Peters Music Library, Kurt Taut (1888-1939), had surmised that the book was "written in Doles's own hand". This assumption is sustained by the apparently autograph entry "di Doles" at the beginning of the Doles chorales which entirely resembles the writing of the remainder of the manuscript. - The volume comprises a total of 252 chorales in a clean, contemporary copy by a single hand, numbered in red ink and (by a later editor) in pencil. Numbers 1 through 200 broadly agree with the two-part printed edition of Bach's chorales issued by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (Berlin/Leipzig 1765 & 1769), while numbers 231-251 represent the melodies for Gellert's "Geistliche Oden und Lieder" which Doles published in 1758, but in a revised order. As far as they could be identified, the final piece as well as the thirty pieces between the (real or ascribed) Bach music and Doles's settings consist of works by various composers of the 16th through 18th centuries, including Doles. - Provenance: In 1882 the book was in the library of the Leipzig-based cultural anthropologist and Bach collector Albrecht Kurzwelly (1868-1917), as shown by his label on the pastedown and his ownership on the flyleaf. After his death, it passed into the possession of the Zwenkau music publisher and collector Walter Höckner (cf. his stamp and the end). - Extremeties slightly bumped; a few spine defects have been professionally repaired. Signed expertise (1878) by the Leipzig choirmaster and Bach scholar Wilhelm Rust (1822-92); another opinion (1918) by Rust's successor Bernhard Friedrich Richter (1850-1931) is pasted between the upper cover and the flyleaf.

[Baking and Bread].
Fascicle of archival law documents from Santervás de Campos near Valladolid. Valladolid, 1505 and 1697.
Folio (218 x 306 mm). 13 pp. on 8 ff. 16th and 17th c. Spanish chancery (brown ink on paper). Sewn within contemp. wrapper with list of contents, numbered "No. 52".

Numerous ms. marginalia and notes of later centuries. - Attached to this is a document (3 ½ pp.), according to which descendants of the buyer, Alfonso and Francisco Verdesoto, tried to lodge claims in the same matter nearly two centuries later; these claims were rejected by the city council in 1697. - Slight tears and waterstains to corners In den Ecken geringfügig wasserrandig; altogether well-preserved.
