Hugh Williamson (1918-1992), book designer with Oxford University Press and author on printing [Andrew Block, London bookseller]
‘I can’t really afford even a guinea for a book’: Hugh Williamson Oxford University Press book designer. Autograph Letter Signed to London bookseller Andrew Block describing his collecting interests and constraints and giving a wants list .
Undated; on letterhead of the Oxford University Press Warehouse and Trade Department London. See Nicolas Barker’s typically-elegant obituary of Williamson in the Independent. 2pp 4to. The obituary of the recipient Andrew Block 1892-1987 in ‘The Private Library’ was subtitled ‘the doyen of booksellers’; his business was established in 1911. On aged and worn paper; folded three times. Signed ‘Hugh Williamson:’ and addressed to ‘Mr Block’. Thirty-one lines in a close calligraphic hand. Having been ‘particularly lucky’ every time he has called on Block and having acquired ‘the 12mo Baskerville the Pickering in Caslon’s types and the plays printed by John Bell’ on his last visit he asks him to ‘keep an eye open for one or two cheap items’. Before giving a list of books he ‘particularly’ needs from the Aldine Press to Baskerville he describes his interest ‘in the development of roman and italic types which means that most of the books I need were printed before the end of the 18th century. On the other hand I can’t really afford even a guinea for a book unless it’s the kind of thing I could sell again for as much as I gave in case of need. The result is that I’m willing to put up with bad condition in the binding missing plates and text pages etc which might put off the “proper†collector.’ Undated; on letterhead of the Oxford University Press Warehouse and Trade Department, London. unknown

Hugo, E. Harold (1910-1985). Printing pioneer who worked his way up to become president of The Meriden Gravure Company.
AN ARCHIVE CONSISTING OF 12 AUTOGRAPH LETTERS SIGNED by E. HAROLD HUGO to PARKER BREESE ALLEN President of THE MERIDEN GRAVURE COMPANY chronicling Hugo's 1931-1932 sales trips on behalf of the printing company which specialized in very high quality image reproduction.
Little Rock Arkansas; Dayton Ohio; et al. 1931 through 1932. 1931. 1931. - A collection of 12 letters penned by E. Harold Hugo addressed to Parker Breese Allen President of the Meriden Gravure Company chronicling Hugo's sales trips on behalf of the printing company. Hugo's letters are preceded by a March 27th 1931 Inter-Office letter from Parker Allen to E. Harold Hugo initialed by Allen. At the bottom of this one-page typed letter is a 25 word annotation penned by Allen about the "Manning-Bowman" job. Hugo's subsequent letters are penned or penciled on 34 pages the first 3 of which are on 9-1/4 inch high by 5-7/8 inch high hotel stationery including that of the Southwest Hotels in Little Rock and The Dayton-Biltmore in Ohio. The very last letter is penned on 11 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide Lord Baltimore Hotel stationery. All of the other letters are written on The Meriden Gravure Co.'s 11 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide "Inter-Office Correspondence" stationery. The letters are as follows:<p>1 April 20 1931. A 4 page Autograph Letter Signed from Hugo to "Parks" Parker Allen on Little Rock Hotel letterhead. Hugo has met with the State of Arkansas geologist George Casper Branner. "He was very much interested is sold on the process and plans to use us on some of his fossil publications."<p>2 April 21 1931. A 2 page Autograph Letter Signed from Hugo to Parker Allen on Dayton Ohio's "The Dayton-Biltmore" hotel letterhead. Hugo met with the Kentucky State geologist Willard Rouse Jillsen "rather a hard-boiled chap & his father is in the engraving business. However he had to admit the superiority of our work."<p>3 April 22 1931. A two page Autograph Letter Signed from Hugo to Parker Allen on "The Dayton-Biltmore" letterhead. Hugo met with the American geologist and paleontologist August F. Foerste who "gave me a couple of leads." "Foerste liked our work immensely."<p>Subsequent letters are from Hugo's 1932 sales trip. The letters probably date from January but we have not been able to precisely pin down the exact sequence. All but the last one are written on "The Meriden Gravure Co. Inter-Office Correspondence" stationery. Deducing from the content they go at least through March.<p>4 A 4 page Autograph Letter Signed penned in Chicago addressed to Parker Allen. Hugo met with Albert C. McFarland who was the manager of the Manufacturing Department of the University of Chicago Press. He receives information on where the work is done for the press. "Mac Farland sic seemed like a nice fellow and says he'll remember us and I believe he will . as far as I can see Mac Farland is the Dictator." He also met with Carey Croneis the curator of paleontology at the Walker Museum. "Croneis likes our stuff very much and will recommend it."<p>5 A 2 page Autograph Letter Signed and a note written from Urbana Illinois to Parker Allen. He met with Dorothy Rose the editor of scientific publication for the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. "We are certain to get their next book on fossils." i.e. J. Marvin Weller's Doctoral Thesis.<p>6 A 4 page Autograph Letter Signed to Parker Allen from Nebraska. Hugo met with Dr. Erwin Barbour director of the Nebraska State Museum and "a classmate of your Dad's at Yale." He then met with Dr. George Condra director of the Conservation and Survey Division of the University of Nebraska. "He promised us his next job of 1500 of about 50 plates." Condra arranged a meeting with Hugo of men in the Experimental Agronomy Dept mis-spelled "Agrenamy". ".excellent reception here . By golly our stuff just sells itself with a little persuasion."<p>7 A 3 page Autograph Letter Signed from Kansas to Parker Allen. Hugo met with Ray C. Moore of the University of Kansas. Moore initiated the massive "Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology" the definitive encyclopedia of invertebrate fossils. Moore tells Hugo about a company in Canada ". Who are quoting ridiculous prices. I can't figure it out. He'll continue with us however."<p>8 A 2 page Autograph Letter Signed from Norman Oklahoma to Parker Allen. Hugo met with Charles Newton Gould who had organized the geology department at The University of Oklahoma. "I got an original from Gould to proof - a pencil sketch." "The trip is getting a little tiresome but interesting and I think will be very profitable."<p>9 A 4 page Autograph Letter Signed from Chicago to Parker Allen. Hugo meets again with Albert McFarland of the University of Chicago Press. "We will get Byzantine Testament & Papyrus Milbank as soon as they are ready." He refers to the color printer Max Jaffe. "Jaffee ea sic Vienna is doing a color job for them and they are in a mess over it." William Kittredge Director of Design and Typography for the Lakeside Press missed his appointment. Hugo gives a positive report on The Field Museum's gelatin plant. On the verso of this letter Hugo types the copy of a January 20 wire from Allen.<p>10 A 2 page Autograph Letter Signed written while en-route from Detroit. Hugo meets with the historian Eugene S. McCartney at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. From him he receives copy for a 15 page publication. From there he goes on to Detroit where he meets with someone from the advertising firm Campbell-Ewald. He calls the man "a bag of air that kept me waiting for an hour and a half." "Detroit was . a disappointment but Ann Arbor took the edge off a little."<p>11 A 2 page Autograph Letter Signed from Cleveland to Parker Allen. Hugo meets with Edd A. Ruggles the Cleveland Museum of Art's photographer from 1916-1941. Ruggles ". is enthusiastic about the process." He can get the OK for "an order for 30M postcards at approx 8.5M soon."<p>12 Later in the year on a different trip Hugo writes to Parker Allen from Baltimore in a 3 page Autograph Letter Signed penned on "Lord Baltimore Hotel" letterhead. In the letter dated October 4 1932 Hugo writes in detail of "8 good interviews at Princeton" . and several "jobs which will come our way eventually." He is told that "the only jobs in production are those started before we entered the Picture."<p>Several of the letters are folded for mailing and all are in generally very good condition.<p>In addition there are 9 typed transcriptions of the letters on poor yellowing copy paper several of which have short tears at the edges and holes from having once been stapled to other correspondence. <p>E. Harold Hugo August 8 1910 - 1985 was only 20 and 21 years old at the time of these letters and sales trips. Hugo had begun working at Meriden in 1924 at the age of 14 while still in High School.<p>According to his obituary published by the New York Times on October 5 1985: "Under Mr. Hugo's leadership the company won international renown for the quality of its art reproductions posters and illustrations for books and catalogues. . He began working part time at the Meriden Gravure Company when he was 14. During World War II he became general manager and in 1950 was named a director. He became president in 1969 and retired in 1975. In 1984 he received the W.A. Dwiggins Award from the Book Builders of Boston for distinction in graphic arts and printing."<p>William J. Glick an associate of Hugo's at Meriden Gravure has documented Hugo's life and work in a personal and scholarly book: "In the Service of Scholarship: Harold Hugo & The Meriden Gravure Company." New Castle Delaware: Oak Knoll Press 2017. Little Rock, Arkansas; Dayton, Ohio; et al. 1931 through 1932. [1931]. unknown

The word "COPY" is stamped in red on the verso. Parker Allen Harold Hugo Carl Rollins and Ed Rudge were among those present as well as the club's 2 special guests Bob Dothard and the Austrian-Impressionist artist & printmaker Hugo Steiner-Prag. The minutes mention distribution of the club's "Keepsake No. 50" which was printed by Gregg Anderson in Los Angeles in 1941. That keepsake's subject was "Collecting especially books" written by Henry R. Wagner. Copies of the essay "Of Typecasting" which was published as the Columbiad Club's Keepsake No. 42 were presented to Bob Dothard and Dr. Steiner-Prag. A letter from Rollo G. Silver to Carl Rollins was read to the membership and mention is made that "Keepsake No. 51 will be due from Valenti Angelo" at the next meeting. Dr. Steiner-Prag and Dob Dothard showed "kodachrome and black and white slides of many of the books he designed and told us something about his work". Initialed "E.H.H." by E.

Ibn Ezra, Abraham ben Me'ir / D'Abano, Pietro.
Abrahe Avenaris Judei Astrologi peritissimi in re iudiciali opera [...]. (Venice, Peter Liechtenstein, 31 May 1507).
4to (164 x 208 mm). XCVI ff. (fol. Z4 blank). With numerous woodcut initials, many hand-coloured. Gothic type. 19th century full armorial calf, rebacked, with giltstamped red morocco spine label. First collected Latin edition of the astrological works of Abraham Ibn Ezra. "A versatile genius with a charming Hebrew style, Ibn Ezra disseminated rationalistic and scientific Arabic learning in France, England and Italy [... He] wrote a number of astrological works (Steinschneider lists more than fifty) that were very popular and were translated into many languages. Two were printed in Latin in 1482 and 1485, respectively; and all of them appeared in Latin in 1507 [...] They are rich in original ideas and in the history of scientific subjects" (DSB). "Of an eclectic bent, he inclined towards Neoplatonism and does not entirely disavow astrology [...] Ezra had considerable knowledge of astronomy, and he produced numerous horoscopes and chronological calculations" (cf. Jüdisches Lexikon II, 526f.). - Born in Tudela, in Moorish Spain, Ibn Ezra traveled extensively throughout the Middle East, and had a great outpouring of written works after about 1140, comprising poetry, commentary on the Torah, works on Hebrew grammar, philosophy, and science. His scientific works on astrology were written when he lived in Beziers, France, between 1147 and 1148. - Extensive early ink marginalia, underlinings and manicules throughout. Light dampstaining to outside lower corners, light scattered browning and spotting. - Provenance: Bound in the later 19th century for Robert Loyd-Lindsay, 1st Baron Wantage (1832-1901), co-founder of the British Red Cross, with his arms stamped in gilt to both covers. Subsequently acquired by the Danish-born astronomer Johan Ludvig Emil Dreyer (1852-1926), long established as an historian of science in Ireland and later at Oxford (his bookplate to the front pastedown). Latterly in the library of the noted Russian-American photographer and biologist Roman Vishniac (1897-1990). Adams A 38. BM-STC Italian 2. Steinschneider I, col. 687f., no. 77. Fürst I, 256. DSB IV, 502. Isaac 12998. OCLC 233860948.

De curandis morbis. A Joanne Bruyerino Campegio, prudentissimi, litteratissimique Cardinalis Turnonii medico, nunc primùm Latinitate donatae. Lyon, apud Seb. Gryphium, 1537.
4to (155 x 217 mm). (72) ff. With woodcut printer's device to title-page. Contemporary blindstamped full calf on 5 raised bands. All edges faded red. First edition of this Latin translation, from the original Arabic, of books II, VI, and VII of the collection of medical texts referred to under the title of "Colliget" (from its Arabic title "Kulliyyât"), written by the great Muslim physician Ibn Rushd (1126-98, Averroes in the Latin tradition). - This translation is important not only for being the first Averroes version given by a French translator, namely the physician and humanist Jean-Baptiste Bruyerin Champier, but also for containing one of the first defences of the part taken by Al-Andalus Arab intellectuals in the transmission of Greek philosophy in Europe. In his introduction, Champier writes: "When the great flourishing of learning collapsed in Athens, and Gothic barbarity invaded the Roman empire, some Greek books of both the philosophers and the physicians migrated to the Arabs, including the Moors and the Spanish ... especially the books of Aristotle and Galen ... Then it happened that the Arabs translated many volumes of both authors from Greek into their own language. For it is known that the Arabs were most zealous in the study of the humanities, with the result that Averroes, Alfarabi, Avicenna and innumerable others of the same period philosophized on the basis of these books ... and they wholly concentrated on this effort and poured all the force of their intellect into writing interpretations and explanations of both authors. But when Spain was ruled by Alfonso, who had a great thirst for texts, especially in mathematics, since the Moors still held Andalusia, it was easy ... for the books of Averroes and others ... to be brought to Northern Spain where they were put into Latin" (fol. A3v, transl. C. Burnett). - The first part contains the description of the human body's functions and organs (with chapters dedicated to the brain and the spinal cord). The second part deals with the rules of healthy life, while the third exposes the principles of curing diseases. - Some foxing and wrinkling. First leaves slightly loosened. A good, appealingly bound copy of a rarely seen book, last offered at auction in 1984. Adams A 2312. Durling 373. Wellcome I, 568 (lacking last leaf). Baudrier VIII, 101.

Ibn Sina (Avicenna) / Da Monte, Giovanni Battista.
In primi lib. canonis Avicenna primam fen, profundissima commentaria. Adiecto nuper secundo, quod numquam antea fuerat typis excusum; de membris capite. Venice, Vincenzo Valgrisi & Baldassarre Costantini, 1558.
8vo. (32), 651, (1) pp. Contemporary half vellum over pigskin with handwritten spine title and shelfmark. Second posthumous edition (by Giano Matteo Durastante) of the extensive commentary on book (kitab) 1, part (fen) 1 of Avicenna's systematic "Canon of Medicine" by one of the leading Renaissance humanist physicians of Italy, Giambattista da Monte (1498-1551), first published in 1557. A corrected and enlarged edition of the work previously edited by W. Lublin and published in Venice in 1554. "The newly added chapter De membris (p. 553-605) is followed by 2 others: De facultatibus and De virtutibus naturalibus ministrantibus" (Durling). - Avicenna's Arabic "Qanun" was widely translated throughout the Middle Ages and remained the basis of medical training in the West as late as the mid-17th century. It continues in use to this day in parts of the Arab world. Through this encyclopedic work, the author exerted "perhaps a wider influence in the eastern and western hemispheres than any other Islamic thinker" (PMM). "The 'Qanun' [...] contains some of the most illuminating thoughts pertaining to distinction of mediastinitis from pleurisy; contagious nature of phthisis; distribution of diseases by water and soil; careful description of skin troubles; of sexual diseases and perversions; of nervous ailments" (Sarton, Introduction to the History of Science). The present part offers a definition of medicine and is mainly dedicated to a discussion of the four humours and temperaments. - Binding slightly wormed; vellum somewhat creased. Paper occasionally wormed and waterstained. Edit 16, CNCE 15945. Wellcome I, 4428. OCLC 1157690416. Cf. Durling 3273, Adams M 1681 (1557 ed.), PMM 11.

Ibn Sina (Avicenna) / Mantino, Jacob (transl.).
Avicennae quarta fen primi libri de universali ratione medendi. Nunc primum M. Iacob Mantini medici hebrei opera Latinate donata. (Venice, Lucantonio Giunta, 8 April 1530).
8vo. 60 ff. With Giunta's device on the title-page (a Florentine lily with the L. A. initials). Later vellum with more recent end leaves. First edition of Jacob Mantino's translation into Latin of the fourth part of the first book of Ibn Sina's Canon of Medicine (original title: al-Qanun fi at-Tibb), divided into 31 chapters. Mantino dedicated it to the Doge of the Venetian Republic, Andrea Gritti (1455-1538). - Jacob Mantino (1490-1549) was a Jewish doctor, rabbi and philosopher. He was born in Spain, but he, his family and the Jewish community in Tortosa were forced to flee after refusing Catholic baptism, as decreed by King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella I of Spain. Mantino grew up in Italy and studied philosophy and medicine at the universities of Bologna and Padua. Most of his adult life was spent being a doctor to the pope and other prominent members of society like cardinals, bishops and ambassadors in Bologna, Verona, Venice and Rome. He was also involved in the (religious) controversy over Henry VIII's divorce from Catharine of Aragon. In 1549, just before his death, he moved to Damascus as ambassador of Venice. Mantino's intellectual production focused on the translation of scientific works from Hebrew and Arabic into Latin, especially medical and philosophical treatises by leading authors of the medieval period, including Moses ben Maimon (Maimonides), Ibn Rushd (Averroes), and Ibn Sina (Avicenna). - Abu 'Ali al-Husayn Ibn Sina (also known by his Latinized name Avicenna, 980-1037) was one of the most prominent intellectuals of the medieval period and of the Islamic Golden Age. He was a Persian polymath; he wrote works on an incredible wide variety of subjects, including philosophy, medicine, astronomy, geography, psychology, Islamic theology, physics, and even poetry. Ibn Sina is mainly known for his medical encyclopaedia The Canon of Medicine, which became a standard medical text for medical students until the late 17th century. - The present work was printed by one of the most successful and important late 15th and early 16th century Italian publishers, Lucantonio Giunta (1457-1538). He was originally from Florence, but was active in Venice from 1489. He was a member of the Giunta family of printers, publishers and booksellers, who were active throughout Europe. - With owner's inscriptions on the front and back paste-downs and on the title-page, and some marginal annotations in brown ink. The paste-downs are partially covered by the newer, slightly foxed, end leaves. The binding is somewhat stained, light water staining to the first half of the work, small restored tears in the outer margin of leaves d1 and d2 without affecting the text. Otherwise in good condition. Durling 397. Edit 16, CNCE 3543. USTC 811590.

IBRAHIM MUTEFERRIKA, (The founder of the first printing house in the Islamic world), (1674-1745).
["DECLARATION OF THE OTTOMAN EUROPEANIZATION": THE 9TH ISLAMIC INCUNABULA] Usûlü'l-hikem fî nizâmi'l-ümem. [i.e. The origins of thought and the order of the nations].
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Contemporary quarter dark burgundy leather bdg. Grey cloth boards. Four compartments at spine. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 96 p. [48 leaves]. 19 lines on each page. Printed on paper with European watermarks. A small tear up to the last page with no loss of text. Overall a fine copy. The 9th incunable of the Islamic world, written by Ibrahim Müteferrika and printed in his legendary Basmahane. Known as the most significant work by Müteferrika, this incunable is a political and state-theoretical treatise composed in order to improve the Ottoman government. In his book, Ibrahim Müteferrika used the sources written in Latin in the Europe of his period, and he presented it to Sultan Mahmud I right after the Patrona Halil Revolt (1730). Müteferrika divided the state forms of government in Europe into three groups with the titles "monarkiya" [i.e. monarchy], "aristokrasiya" [i.e. aristocracy], and "demokrasiya] [i.e. democracy]. In the work, the importance of the sciences (physics, astronomy, and geography) in the state administration was emphasized, and it was stated that a solid-state order could not be established in a country where these sciences were not developed. In addition to this, he used the term "Nizâm-i Cedîd" [i.e. The New Order] for the first time and stated that the Ottoman Empire should definitely adopt and implement the new military orders of the 18th century Europe. In addition, this work is one of the earliest in which the "democracy" term is used in the Islamic world. The book was published in French in Vienna and Paris in 1769 (Traite de la tactique ou méthode artificielle pour l'ordonnance des troupes, Vienne, 1769. Translated by Karl Emerich Alexander von Reviczky von Revisnye [Baron Reviczki]), and was translated from French into Russian in 1777. One of only 500 copies. The volume appeared in 1732, about one and a half years after the uprising of Patrona Halil Revolt which had overthrown the system of Sultan Ahmed III and Grand Vizier Damad Ibrahim. The writing, recalling the characteristics of Ottoman siyâsetnâme [i.e. the book of politics], calls the attention of the Ottoman leaders to the results of the state and military development and to the reasons for the strategic superiority of the rival European powers, while strongly condemning the several centuries long disinterest of the Ottomans to the external world. An important feature of the work is to break with the hitherto prevailing nostalgic attitude to bygone golden ages. Although observes the stylistic conventions in as much he speaks contemptuously about the Christian nations, in the content, already turns away from the indifference referring to the superiority of Islam. It announces in a list organized by items the reasons for the state's weakness and the conditions of rising. In harmony with the main aspects of contemporary Ottoman reforms, the work mainly focuses on the necessity of the reorganization of the army. It also offers a broader historical background by describing after the Greek philosophers the various types of states (6v-7v), or by treating the origins and reasons for the success of the foundations of European culture, the Roman Empire (19v-20v). The concept "Nizâm-I Cedîd" (i.e. the New Order), which would be used for the newly organized military formations of Sultan Selîm III (1789-1807), appears here for the first time referring to the modernized European army (17v-18r). "The utopistic optimism of Risâle-i Islâmîye may have had some rational basis, if one takes into account the Karlovci Treaty (1699) which was a rather positive correction in contrast to the previous series of Turkish failures in the Balkans, the European 'internal wars' of the first decade of the 18th century, and the experiences of the reform and peace years of the Tulip Period. However, the Usûl ül-hikem. was already inspired by the atmosphere after the Pozarevac Treaty (1718) which was a further stro
