STEAMSHIP ENGINE DRAWINGS
A collection of drawings including a fine & extended drawing in brush & wash colors of a ship's steam engine and it parts; along with one more smaller drawing of the furnace; and 12 architectural drawings of various aspects of the Western ship; entitled on the wrapper "Joki shikari kumiawase mitori no zu" "Steam Engine Parts the Design of the Ship and Its Assemblage"
14 sheets ranging from 2000 x 377 mm. to 670 x 385 mm. the 12 drawings to 567 x 380 mm. the furnace plus the wrapper. All on fine thin paper. Japan: ca. 1855-63. With the first demonstration of steam power in Japan thanks to Commodore Perry's visit in July of 1853 the feudal domains immediately began to organize the construction of a fleet of large Western-style warships. By the August 1853 arrival in Nagasaki of the Russian Admiral Yevfimy Putyatin who gave a demonstration of a steam engine on his ship the Palladia. Hisashige Tanaka 1799-1881 the founder of the future Toshiba Corporation and the "Thomas Edison of Japan" promptly copied these models and built Japan's first steam engine. The first steam-powered warship to enter the Japanese navy was the Kanko Maru given by the Dutch government in 1855. Western naval technologies were quickly assimilated; the earliest Japanese steam-powered warships were based on Dutch shipbuilding manuals and with direct assistance from Dutch representatives. In 1863 Japan completed is first domestically built steam warship the Chiyodagata. Following the humiliations at the hands of foreign navies in the Bombardment of Kagoshima in 1863 the shogunate began to rely more on French and British warship technologies. The large drawing of the steam engine and its parts is captioned in trans.: "The steamship's measurements: length is ca. 50 meters width is ca. 11 meters and depth is ca. 7 meters. Steam engine's structure and the parts described with measurements." From right to left we see about thirty of the parts of the steam engine often with katakana labels and measurements the latter written in red ink. On the farthest left of this sheet is a remarkable and fine drawing 770 x 380 mm. in brush with wash in various grays yellow and pink of the assembled engine. On the first leaf of the series of 12 numbered sheets of drawings of the naval architecture of the proposed warship a label pasted-on states in trans.: "The 12 sheets of illustrations are copies of red-haired origin of the ship." These sheets contain hundreds of drawings many heightened with gray wash and many with specific measurements of various aspects of the ship's design in preparation for construction. Included are numerous depictions of the hull deck bulkheads rudders winches and gears from different viewpoints and of structural and strengthening elements with many manuscript labels in katakana of Dutch terms. There is some worming on the sheets which does touch some drawings and characters but it is not offensive. unknown books

Seattle Washington: Berger Enterprises. First edition. Heavy card. Plastic spiral. . Fine. N.d. circa 1950. 4to 27.5 by 23 cm. Unpaginated thirteen leaves with printing only on rectos. Story of what happens to piglets who defy their mother when told to stay at home while she went out to the market -- they end up in the mouth of a sly alligator named Big Bad Snipper Snapper. Only by odd circumstances not to be divulged here are they saved as the alligator's sneeze sends them through the air back to their home's front porch. Berger we are told was "better known as Seattle's all weather swimmer" for swimming "Daily with hundred of wild ducks seagulls and mud hens for company." He was also a recreational director in the Northwest for many years. MacPherson's enchanting illustrations would seem to owe a debt to Looney Tunes.

Contents are very near fine -- just some light foxing and a few small spots of soiling. <br/><br/>Highly skilled technical drawings by Michel Clement a student at the École Impériale d'Arts et Métiers d'Aix. The period of training was set at three years with the first year devoted to arithmetic geometry and drawing; the second year to descriptive geometry trigonometry and mechanical drawing of both stationary and moving parts; and the third year to industrial mechanics and advanced drafting techniques. This album affords a fascinating glimpse into the type and extent of the skills required of graduates of French technical schools in the mid-19th century. The course in design cours de dessins is structured and presented here in 4 sections: Troisieme division premiere annee; deuxieme division these drawings dated 1858-1859; deuxieme annee; and premiere division.

Album of Original Pencil Drawings Portraits of Women Attributed to Pierre-Louis Henri Grevedon
n.p.: n.p. n.d. Hardcover. Near Fine. Full chestnut morocco boards and spine ornately stamped in gilt and blind including "Grevedon" in blind and "F.H." in gilt on upper board; oblong 8vo 305x235mm; contains 21 original pencil drawings each about 90x140mm mounted to the recto only one per leaf. Undated but likely drawn in the late-18th or early-19th century tho they could be as late as mid-19th; a pencilled notation on the FFEP indicates that the artist is Pierre-Louis Henri Grevedon and the drawings collected by Franklin De Haven. Just a little light wear to binding; internally very clean with the small leather ex-libris of American collector Robert Hoe. <br/><br/>Grevedon 1776-1860 was known for his beautiful portraits of young women and these bust-length portraits are no exception; showing all sorts of women some plainly dressed perhaps a maid and others in more extravagant costume coiffure headdress including a bride. Grevedon published several collections of drawings in his lifetime and some of his works now reside in the permanent collections of the Brooklyn Museum Art Institute of Chicago Harvard and more. n.p. hardcover books
