GUIDA DA MILANO A GINEVRA PER IL SEMPIONE.
In-8 gr. (mm. 264x198), cartonato muto coevo, tit. impresso al dorso, pp. (2),XI,175,(5), molto ben illustrato da 30 tavole fuori testo, incise in rame all’acquatinta da Landini e Fumagalli, su disegno del grande artista svizzero Lory, e con una carta geografica più volte ripieg. Il nome dell’A. si ricava dalla dedica a Davide Bertolotti. Importante e raffinata galleria di stupende vedute del lago Maggiore, Domodossola, il Sempione, Brieg, Sion, Ginevra e poi montagne, ghiacciai, ponti e gallerie. La guida di Artaria si ispira alla celebre opera di Gabriel L. e Mathias G. LORY “Voyage pittoresque de Genève à Milan par la route du Simplon”, stampato a Parigi nel 1811 con 35 tavole a colori, e la presente versione (della quale esiste una riedizione con 40 tavole) può essere in parte considerata una riduzione dell’originale.

(Arturo Caldarola)
Descrizione del sipario del Real Teatro di S. Carlo dipinto da Giuseppe Mancinelli
In 16 (cm 12 x 18,5), pp. 22. Brossura rifatta con carta d'epoca. Leggera gora all'angolo superiore delle pagine. Annotazione manoscritta a pagina 14. Brossura rifatta con carta d'epoca. Saggio pubblicato anonimo, ma attribuito ad Arturo Caldarola ('Bollettino della proprieta' intellettuale', 1909, p. 595) con la descrizione del sipario del teatro S. Carlo di Napoli dipinto da Giuseppe Mancinelli, una gigantesca scenografia di stoffa realizzata nel 1854. Il pittore ritrasse un'ottantina fra poeti, artisti e musicisti italiani fra i quali Cimarosa e Jommelli. Il soggetto raffigurava una commistione tra il soggetto classico del Parnaso - tratto dalla mitologia greca - con il tema romantico, molto caro all'arte ottocentesca, dell'esaltazione delle glorie patrie. Sul sipario erano raffigurati Erodoto, Sofocle, Eschilo, Aristofane, Fidia, Apelle, Pitagora fino a uomini politici e musicisti dal Rinascimento al pieno Settecento. Giuseppe Mancinelli (Napoli, 1813 - Frosinone, 1875) soggiorno' a Roma dove ebbe come maestro Vincenzo Camuccini. Durante il periodo romano, entro' in contratto con il movimento dei Puristi e dei Nazareni. Tornato a Napoli, vinse il concorso per la cattedra di disegno presso il Reale Istituto di Belle Arti. Successivamente gli fu affidata la cattedra di pittura. Privilegio' nella sua pittura i soggetti religiosi e devozionali.

(Assemani, Simone).
Spiegazione di due rarissime medaglie cufiche della famiglia degli Ommiadi appartenenti al Museo Majnoni in Milano. Milan, Giulio Ferrario, 1818.
Folio (244 x 341 mm). (12) pp. With 2 engravings (one in the text, one on the title). - (Bound after) II: (Schiepati, Giuseppe / Assemani, Simone). Descrizione di alcune monete cufiche del Museo di Stefano de Mainoni. Milan, Paolo Emilio Giusti, 1820. 136 pp. With 3 engraved plates. - (And) III: Reinaud, [Joseph Toussaint]. Lettre à M. le baron Silvestre de Sacy sur la collection des monuments orientaux de [...] comte de Blacas. Paris, Firmin Didot, 1820. 16 pp. Original pink printed wrappers. 8vo. All three within contemporary green boards with giltstamped red spine label. Collection of three rare studies falling within "the rarely-entered territory of Muslim archaeology" (cf. Fück, p. 153), comprising the two final works of Simone Assemani and the first publication of Joseph Toussaint Reinaud. - In 1818, the orientalist Assemani, well known as an authority on Kufic coins through his "Museo Cufico Naniano" (1787) and, more recently, his treatise "Sopra le Monete Arabe effigiate" (1809), published his "Spiegazione", a discussion of two rare Cufic coins in Stefano de Majnoni's collection. Subsequently, Majnoni called on Assemani to identify several additional coins and in 1820 requested him to check a catalogue of his collection compiled by Giuseppe Schiepati. When Schiepati published the second work here included, "Descrizione di alcune monete cufiche", it was found to contain many unacknowledged contributions by Assemani, as well as extracts from his "Museo Cufico Naniano". Also, Schiepati’s historical comments relied on, and indeed summarized, C. O. Castiglioni’s "Monete Cufiche dell’ I. R. Museo di Milano" (1819). A controversy arose, in the course of which Schiepati was accused of plagiarism - a matter exacerbated by the fact that Assemani had died in early 1821, at the age of 69. - The third work in the volume is a slim octavo brochure, composed by Reinaud as a letter to his teacher Silvestre de Sacy reporting on the Islamic collection of the French antiquarian and diplomat Pierre de Blacas (1771-1839). Eight years later Reinaud would publish his famous, lavishly produced two-volume catalogue "Description des monumens musulmans du cabinet de M. le duc de Blacas", which made his name. - Occasional insignificant browning; Reinaud's work untrimmed, the folio works printed on large paper retaining very wide margins. From the library of Jean-Baptiste Alexandre Billard de Saint-Laumer (1814-92) with his collection drystamp to title page of "Descrizione"; the three plates interleaved with smaller sheets bearing numbered annotations, likely in his hand.

(Astley, John).
The Art of Riding, set foorth in a breefe Treatise, with a due interpretation out of certeine places alledged out of Xenophon, and Gryson, verie expert and excellent Horssemen: wherein also the true use of the hand by the said Grysons rules and precepts is speciallie touched: and how the Author of this present worke hath put the same in practice, also what profit men may reape thereby [...] Lastlie, is added a short discourse of the Chaine or Cavezzan, the Trench, and the Martingale: written by a Gentleman of great skill and long experience in the said Art. London, Henry Denham, 1584.
4to. (8), 79, (1) pp. With woodcut headpiece on t. p. and initials. 19th century orange-red crushed morocco by Riviere with leading edges gilt and elaborate gilt inner dentelle, rebacked. All edges gilt. The exceedingly rare first edition of one of the earliest English treatises on horsemanship, derived in part from Xenophon, Federico Grisone's "Ordini di cavalcare", and other authors, and in part from Astley's own experience. This is, in fact, the first translation into English of Xenophon's treatise "Peri hippikes" ("On horsemanship"). - The publication of Astley's "Art of Riding", perhaps his single most lasting achievement, came late in his life as an Elizabethan courtier. Here, he relays the doctrine of the Italian riding schools as he and other Gentleman Pensioners understood it, particularly on training the horse to respond to the hand. Astley was on friendly terms with Thomas Blundeville, whose Grisone translation two decades earlier counts as the first treatise on horsemanship to be published in English. - First three leaves slightly browned, with the upper right corner of each leaf imperceptibly restored from another copy; a closed tear to f. A4. Altogether a remarkable clean and crisp copy in an English master binding. The Fitzwilliam-Gloucester copy, bound with a common companion piece, Claudio Corte's "Art of Riding" (also published by Denham in the same year) commanded £14,400 at Christie's in 2006. The catalogue notes that the scarcity of these two work "at auction varies markedly; ABPC records some 5 copies of Corte's work at auction since 1975, but none of Astley's". Huth p. 11. STC 884. Mellon/Podeschi 12. Hoffmann III, 609 (s. v. Xenophon).

(AUTOMOBILE HISTORY). FIAT. F. I. A. T.
1904 F.I.A.T. Sales Catalog.
New York: Hollander & Tangeman 1904. First edition. Oblong quarto 11 x 5 1/2 inches; 28 x 14 cm. 24 pp. with seven pages bearing photographic illustrations five of which are of various high-end Fiat cars. Numerous diagrams and line drawings. Title page printed in red and black. Stapled wrappers with front cover bearing an art nouveau color illustration of a car on the road by R. Foster Worthley. Some mild aging but a very good copy.This hitherto unrecorded catalog helps elucidate the early history of Fiat automobiles in the United States. OCLC records a similar catalog for 1904 but it is only 8 pp. and measures 8 1/2 x 6 inches. Giovanni Agnelli with several investors founded the Fabrica Italiana Automobili Torino F.I.A.T. in 1899. Its acronymous name was changed to upper- and lower-case Fiat in 1906. The catalog offered here still bears the original moniker of F.I.A.T. Agnelli led the company until his death in 1945. If one researches the history of Fiat cars in the United States we can read that Fiats were first introduced into the US in 1908 “In 1908 the Fiat Automobile Co. was established in the country and a plant in Poughkeepsie N.Y.". But by this it is meant that Fiats were first manufactured in the United State in 1908. Prior to that date starting in 1902 the firm of Hollander & Tangeman of New York City held the sole license to import Fiats into the country. In the beginning years of the 20th century Fiats were considered amongst the most luxurious of automobiles as opposed to their thrifty image of recent decades. An average Fiat in 1908 cost $4000 as compared to a Ford Model T which only cost $850. In this 1904 catalog we can see that Fiat was anxious to be seen as a luxury automobile. They named almost all of their cars after royalty. The five models shown are the Queen Margherita the Princess Laetiza the King of Belgium the Leopold and the Touring. All but the Queen Margherita were driven by the 16-20 HP Fiat engine with the Queen having the 24-30 HP engine. “The year 1903 was a watershed for FIAT as its early automatic inlet-valve motor was replaced by a new T-head four-cylinder engine whose cylinders were arranged in pairs. FIAT principal Giavanni Agnelli had by then arranged to license Mercedes’ successful honeycomb radiator design which allowed for reliable power under the stress of hill climbs and sprints at which the small range of cars was proving to be increasingly proficient. In many respects FIATs were more technically advanced than their Mercedes counterparts which was particularly evident in their superior oil lubrication systems. A year later FIAT mated the recent engine redesign to a new frame made of pressed steel commencing a gradual transition from the wood frames that were standard to this point. This resulted in a car that was both more durable and less prone to flex which was ideal for the competition forays that were becoming the company’s increased focus†Sotheby’s.Hollander & Tangeman had their shop a view of which is in this publication at 5 West 45th Street in Manhattan. C. H. Tangeman was the son of George P. Tangeman whose company Royal Baking Powder was worth $10 million in 1895. Hollander & Tangeman was also involved in the power boat market again with Fiat engines. They were very active in the racing scene and a list of awards can be found on the final page. They changed the name of their company to the Hol-Tan Company in 1906 when they announced that they had given up the Fiat license and would now concentrate on selling American cars only. In fact Fiat had revoked Hol-Tan's license in preparation for the launch of Fiat production in Poughkeepsie. The Hol-Tan Company selected the cafr produced by the Moon Motor Company of St. Louis and branded it the Hol-Tan to replace the imported Fiats. They then sold the Hol-Tan to their fashionable clientele in New York Boston and Philadelphia. Hollander & Tangeman unknown

(AUTOMOBILE HISTORY) SERPOLLET, Leon
Generateur Serpollet: Exposition Universalle 1889.
Paris: Eug. Unsworth & Cie. 1889. First edition. Oversize trade or display card 7 1/8 x 4 7/8 inches. French. Recto printed in red and black; verso in black. Four illustrations. A beautiful survivor.The front of the card bears woodcut illustrations of the four applications for Serpollet’s new steam engine; boat generator tricycle and car Phaeton a Vapeur The rear bears contact information capitalization list of applications and general information. One of the addresses has been professionally redacted Pagasins; 5 Avenue de l’Opera. Serpollet called his company the "Societe des generateurs a vaporisation Instantee"This appears to be the sole surviving item of ephemera from Leon Serpollet’s early career. Nothing remotely akin to this can be found in OCLC or in the Bibliotheque National. One of the very first advertisements for an automobile and as such very rare and very important.Leon Serpollet and his brother Henri early French steam car pioneers worked together to perfect the flash tube boiler that introduced an efficient and new way to produce steam. The exact date that their innovative system was first built appears to be unknown but after further development it went on to make steam power in an automobile more practical because of its advanced design and quick steam output. “In 1887 Serpollet had caught Armand Peugot’s attention when he had built a single-cylinder steam engine almost entirely of scrap parts and fitted it to a pedal tricycle. Armand subsequently provided financing to Serpollet to create the world’s first steam-powered tricylce. In 1889 at the World’s Fair in Paris Serpollet introduced his invention as presented in this card making Peugot one of the pioneers of the proto-automobile†S. E. Ante Creative Capital: Georges Doriot and the Birth of Venture Capital. At that Fair Leon Serpollet saw Karl Benz’s Motorwagon 3 now acknowledged to be the first automobile. Realizing the importance of the car Serpollet changed direction. In 1898 the brothers met a wealthy investor named Frank Gardner and together they formed the Gardener-Serpollet Company. Shortly afterwards they introduced one of the best-engineered early steam cars to be found in the automotive marketplace.Serpollet's flash-tube or mono tube boiler as it is also known turns a small quantity of water into steam quickly and it also has the ability to provide a continual supply to the engine when correctly designed. The new boiler also reduced the long period of time it took to get a conventional unit up to a useable pressure. Linking it to the advanced four cylinder engine Serpollet designed resulted in a fast and powerful performer. The Gardener-Serpollet success story soon resulted in Leon Serpollet setting a new World Land Speed Record at 75.06 mph on April 13 1902 driving the “Easter Egg†in Nice France. By this time the road near Paris had become too rough and too short for the speeds being reached so Serpollet used the now famous Promenade des Anglais at Nice. He had already been successful in racing and took several of his best cars to Nice in 1902. A contemporary report said the car looked like a boat turned upside down. However odd it looked he covered the kilometre in 29.8 seconds and was credited with 75.06 miles an hour. He then turned his attention to producing the Gardner-Serpollet and the Serpollet Steam Tram until his death in 1907. Eug. Unsworth & Cie. unknown
