‎AUTOMOBILE TRAVEL ITALY.‎

‎A Florentine winter. . . an exceptional photo album with 45 sepia-tinted images recording an Edwardian family’s stay in the Villa Alberti and their travels in their Brass-era limousine touring car.‎

‎Florence Italy: n.p. ca. 1908. Tall 8vo. 7.25 x 9.25 in. 50 leaves unnumbered. on thick laid paper. With 45 sepia-tinted tipped-in photographs on thick photo matte-finish photo paper sized primarily 4.5 x 6.5 in. up to 4.8 x 6.8 in. with nearly all preserving strong contrast and neat ink manuscript captions below. Original vellum binding by the historic Giulio Giannini binders in Florence yapp edges preserving calfskin ties and knots in Arts & Crafts style gilt lettering front cover very minor bowing & curving to covers still VG copy. An intriguing souvenir photo album vividly portraying a well-to-do Edwardian family’s Christmas holiday in the historic Villa Alberti via Montughi in the hills above Florence. The Villa Alberti features a historic plaque announcing it was the site of the Pazzi Conspiracy against Lorenzo de Medici in 1478 resulting in the awarding of the Villa to the Alberti family not to be confused with Villa Alberti Siena where the Brownings summered for many years and later owned and often rented out to friends by Thomas Child Hayllar 1835-1918 British barrister and former Hong Kong Executive Council member until his death during World War I. The photos show the group in period motoring coats and hats their Brass-era automobile no badging but appears to be a 1908 Lancia Alfa Limousine and motoring excursions to the San Francesco monastery driving through the Apennines Mountains with rear view of automobile about to pass over stone bridge; a large farm near Borgo San Lorenzo; a stop at the historic Villa Martelli in Gricigliano around Bagno a Ripoli originally built in 1478 but expanded and modified in the 18th century with beautiful waterworks and fishponds. They also visit Compiobbi with a very nice view of the waterfront and the Arno river the village of Pagnolle and other stops in the tour. The photographs depict the Tuscan countryside of Fiesole as backdrop including scenes of the Villa Alberti’s views well-appointed library drawing room and bedrooms as well as the large staff to maintain the Villa the chapel the garage with the automobile outside and more. The only indications of identity for the travelers appear to be cryptic reference to “I.P.S.S.’ Room†“Gertrude’s Room†and “Vincent’s Room.†Although previous owners of the album have posited this as the Ida Pilkington Spencer Stanhope and Gertrude May Spencer-Stanhope there was no way to establish that fact or if so why the family did not use the nearby Villa Nuti in Bellosguardo still owned by the family of John Roddam Spencer-Stanhope 1829-1908 noted pre-Raphaelite artist even after his death.

The trip manuscript in 1932 details the driving adventures through Massachusetts Connecticut Pennsylvania and New York including postcards of the Taconic Trail airplanes flying in formation at Prospect Hill Fire Tower in Waltham and visits to cadets at West Point NY and onto Rochester NY. She explains in her manuscript letter to her “Mum†alongside her favorite “Burma Shave†roadside sayings that she and her traveling companions had inadvertently tried to get breakfast in a “Speakeasy†in 1932 and been summarily thrown out by a “fattish greasy man with a harelip.†The other small manuscript letter to Mum indicates that she hasn’t slept well due to the noises from revving cars outside the hotel and that she had nightmares from a viewing the previous night of Boris Karloff’s Isle of the Dead second of the Val Lewton Karloff collaborations.

Vernon Arlington National Cemetery the Library of Congress followed by visits to the Caverns in Luray VA and onto Reading PA. Of interest are the photos at the end showing the three women draped around “Beau Brummel†with luggage tied to the side typed quip mentioning home “homes and husbands and whatnot look pretty darn good to us after a week’s absence†and if anyone wants the rest of the Burma Shaves they can write them out themselves. n.p., hardcover‎
