(LEAF BOOK - BOOK COLLECTING, THE KORAN). BARLOW JR, WILLIAM P
THE FELICITIES OF BOOK COLLECTING
Piedmont California: The Nova Press 1958. 260 x 170 mm. 10 1/4 x 6 3/4". 17 1 pp. 1 leaf. <br/> Publisher's sage green paper boards cover with title printed in black. WITH A LEAF FROM THE 1865 BIELEFELD "DER KORAN." In fine condition.<br/> <br/> This charming and attractively printed leaf book served as the ultimate bibliophile's Christmas card. William P. Barlow Jr. 1934-2021 was a dedicated Bay Area book collector who for many years served as president of the Roxburghe Club of San Francisco. Along with collecting Barlow printed under the Nova Press imprint putting out a smattering of pamphlets and "cards" such as the present volume. This tongue-in-cheek production gently pokes fun at the norms of the bibliophilic world even as it celebrates them as evident in the limitation statement: "A moderate number of copies printed and distributed by the Nova Press Piedmont and its proprietor Wm. P. Barlow Jr. as a form of Season's Greetings to members of the Roxburghe Club of San Francisco and other friends. To the latter I apologize for a rather parochial parody and a somewhat un-Christmassy Christmas card; to the former I need apologize only for the way in which it has been done as they are used to getting all sorts of strange things at Christmas." The leaf included in this book is from the 1856 Bielefeld edition of Ludwig Ullmann's influential German translation of the Qur'an which was first published in 1840. The print run of this work must have been a good deal less than "moderate" as copies seem not to be readily available. The Nova Press unknown

(LONG ISLAND IN THE GILDED AGE)
Photo Scrapbook Shows Life And Leisure During The Gilded Age On Long Island
LONG ISLAND. This scrapbook displays photographs taken between 1887-1889 that capture a wealthy familys life on Long Island during the Gilded Age. The term The Gilded Age created by Mark Twain refers to the period of the late nineteenth century typically the 1870s through the turn of the 20th century during which rapid economic growth rapid industrialization and widespread European immigration primarily unskilled labor transformed the economies of the Northern and Western United States. According to the United States Census the era saw a real wage growth of 40% from 1860 to 1890 with the average annual wage per industrial worker including men women and children rising from $380 in 1880 $11523 in 2022 dollars to $584 in 1890 $18370 in 2022 dollars a gain of 59%. This rise in wealth resulted in the rise of a New Money elite those who made their money not through generational wealth and family connections but rather through oil the railroads and other rising industries. They are best exemplified by John D. Rockefeller Jay Gould Henry Clay Frick Andrew Mellon Andrew Carnegie Henry Flagler J. P. Morgan Leland Stanford and Cornelius Vanderbilt. New York was often at the center of the Gilded Age as the worlds dominant financial market and the nations leader in economic investment immigration political corruption and culture. This scrapbook contains 59 black-and-white photographs. They are affixed or mounted to 43 of 70 pages in the album. 29 of the photographs are 3.5 x 4.5 19 are 6.5 x 4.5 and 11 are 5.5 x 7.5. Two of these images are cyanotypes. Though the family is not named in the album and photographs with names underneath lead to nothing online there is a photograph in front of a house labeled Westbrook. The Westbrook estate on Long Island was designed in 1886 for William Bayard Cutting 18501912 by the architect Charles C. Haight in the Tudor Revival style. It contained the first private golf course in the United States and is now a part of a state park called the Bayard-Cutting Arboretum. Cutting started the sugar beet industry in the United States in 1888 was a builder of railroads operated the ferries of New York City his maternal grandfather was a partner of Robert Fulton and developed part of the south Brooklyn waterfront Red Hook. Images include a large extended family repeatedly and leisurely photographed the Harvard-Yale sailing race in 1887 at New London young men likely Yale students yachting and relaxing on a boat named the Princess and beautiful images of the scenery and waters of Long Island. Overall the album is in good shape. One photograph is damaged and several others have minor tears or chips. The scrapbook is half-leather and half-cloth so the spine is worn and the corners are rubbed and bumped. Regardless the scrapbook is a prize for anyone interested in this fascinating and relevant era in American history. It provides fantastic insight into the life of a wealthy Long Island family including what they did what they wore and how they presented themselves to each other and their neighbors. hardcover

Wiberg later used the machine to produce a set of tables of seven-place logarithms of the numbers from 1 to 1000000 together with logarithms of trigonometric functions published in 1876 under the title 'Tables de logarithmes calculées et imprimées au moyen de la machine à calculer sw M.

(MEDITATIONS ON THE PASSION OF CHRIST) HOUAT, Francois, engr (fl 1677-1715)
Association pour la mémoire journalière de la Passion de Nostre Seigneur.avec la meditations sur chaque poinct. et les Indulgences Plenières accordées a ladite Association.
Lyon: Chez Pierre Guillimin 1679. Hardcover. Very Good. Lyon: Chez Pierre Guillimin M.DC.LXXIX 1679. 8vo 150 x 80mm. 428pp. 43. Full page engraved frontispiece depicting a worshipper at the foot of the cross laden with Passion instruments crown of thorns sponge on reed withes ladder spear pillar with caption Les souffrances & la mort Dun DIEV pour nous Nôtre Continuelle. Meditation. The suffering and death of God for us is our continual meditation. Woodcut device of heraldic shield and cardinals hat with tassels on title. Woodcut chapter head vignettes and tailpieces one repeating of Evangelist John on isle of Patmos and another of Veronicas veil and woodcut historiated initials mostly birds throughout. Dedicated to LÂme Chrétienne. The Christian Soul. Italic and Roman type. Contemporary speckled calf spine gilt in compartments; joints splitting light edgewear; margins trimmed close affecting few engravings. Front pastedown with book label of Justin Godart 1871-1956 a French politician and bibliophile of Lyon. Godarts personal library stamp is also on title with the Lyonnais lion. Internet records show that the library of Justin Godart was sold at auction in Paris by Hôtel Drouot in 1957. Importantly this book remained part of the local fabric of the French city from its publication to over 275 years. Stated seventh edition of this devotional text on the Passion of Christ printed by a public brotherhood of Catholics although no other editions located. It is a highly uncommon pocket prayer book with little traceable history save the fact that this same 1679 edition appeared in an auction by Techener in 1861. Another Meditations publication by the same society appears 39 years later as the Nouvelle édition Chez Barthelemy Martin 1718 now held in the Public Library of Lyon. This elusive and largely anonymous French Catholic confraternity probably a local chapter of Lyon likely had various periods of flourishing and disbands or did not make large print-runs of their books possibly explaining the scarcity. <br/><br/>The aim of this brotherhoods untitled publication was to disseminate widely the prayers and reflections to be offered daily first day of the month second day etc. for the suffering of Christ. By publishing a text like this the brothers would in effect be gathering lower orders to participate in penitential exercises which is in itself an act of devotion and which would win them indulgences. In total there are 41 copperplate engravings attributed to François Houat who came from a family of printers and engravers in Northern France. These engravings are exceptional for their dramatic shadows and perspectives. As well the Guillimin publishers were known for their Catholic devotional imprints. For 31 days a full-page copperplate engraved scene of Christs Passion with captions precedes each daily reflection. The daily meditations build up chronologically ending with Christs death on the cross. Full-page engravings are also for Litany of the Passion Litany to the Infant Christ Nativity Lent repeating frontispiece Resurrection Ascension Pentecost the Blessed Sacrament and the emblemata of the brotherhood skull instruments of Passion candle and hourglass. French penitent confraternities survived during the early modern centuries as they underwent several transformations which made them more reflective of French as opposed to Italian devotional sensibilities. They enjoyed prestige and spiritual currency in Catholic society right up the Revolution. Chez Pierre Guillimin hardcover
