REWARD OF IRON CROSS MEDAL FOR WASSIF BEY FROM WILHELM II - SIGNED BY ADMIRAL SOUCHON Typescript letter signed 'Souchon' sent to 'Kapitan zur See Wassif Bey'.
Constantinople: Kommando der Flotte Konstantinopel den 12. August 1915. 1915. No Binding. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Original typescript letter signed 'Souchon' addressed to Capitan lieutenant colonel Vasif Wassif Muhiddin Bey Kasimpasali. Wassif Bey was a ship commander of Hamidiye cruiser before Rauf Orbay. 27x21 cm. In German. 1 p. "Kommando der Flotte" letterhead with bilingual in German and Ottoman Turkish. 8 lines. Signed 'Souchon'. This letter includes an indication that it honors the Kaiser Wilhelm II with the Iron Cross medal for Commander of Haamidiye Wassif Bey. "Seine Majestät der Kaiser und König haben Euer Hochwohlgeboren in Anbetracht Ihrer tatkraftigen Arbeit im Interesse der Kriegsbereitschaft und Kriegsbereitschaft und Kriegsbedürfnisse der Marine das Eiserne Kreuz 2. Klasse zu verleihen geruht.". i.e. His Majesty the Emperor and King have deigned your High Wellbeing to give the Iron Cross 2nd Class to the Navy in view of your hard work in the interest of readiness for war needs. Wilhelm Anton Souchon was a German admiral in World War I. Souchon commanded the Kaiserliche Marine's Mediterranean squadron in the early days of the war. His initiative played a major part in the entry of the Ottoman Empire into World War I. Wilhelm Anton Souchon was born on 2 June 1864 in Germany to a family of Huguenot ancestry. In July 1914 hostilities erupted between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Kingdom of Serbia. Rear Admiral Souchon a native of Leipzig feared being trapped in the Adriatic Sea in the event of other nations joining in the conflict. Because of this Souchon took his two ships the battlecruiser Goeben and the light cruiser Breslau into the western Mediterranean. When World War I began on 4 August 1914 he bombarded the French-Algerian ports of Bône and Philippeville. He successfully eluded British attempts to corner him see Pursuit of Goeben and Breslau and on 10 August 1914 his small squadron arrived at the Dardanelles. After two days of negotiations he was allowed to take his ships to Istanbul where they were subsequently transferred officially into the Ottoman Navy. Souchon was appointed Commander-in-chief of the Ottoman Navy and served in this position until September 1917. This gesture by Germany had an enormously positive impact with the Turkish population. At the outbreak of the war Winston Churchill caused outrage when he "requisitioned" without compensation two almost completed Turkish battleships in British shipyards Sultan Osman I and Reshadieh that had been financed by public subscription. These ships were commissioned into the Royal Navy as Agincourt and Erin respectively. On 15 August 1914 in the aftermath of Souchon's daring dash to Constantinople Turkey cancelled their maritime agreement with Britain and the Royal Navy mission under Admiral Limpus and left by 15 September. The Dardanelles were fortified with German assistance and the Bosporus was secured by the presence of Goeben now Yavuz Sultan Selim. On 27 September 1914 the Straits were officially closed to all international shipping. On 29 October 1914 Souchon's fleet launched the Black Sea Raid a naval attack which brought the Ottoman Empire into World War I. His ships laid several sea minefields and shelled the Russian Black Sea ports of Sevastopol Odessa and others destroying the Russian minesweeper Prut in the process. British naval units quickly retaliated on Turkish merchant ships off Izmir Smyrna. On 2 November 1914 Russia declared war on the Ottoman Empire. On 5 November Britain followed suit and on 12 November 1914 the Ottoman government officially declared war on the Triple Entente. For the next three years Souchon attempted to reform the Ottoman Navy while conducting a number of raids on Russian shipping ports and coastal installations in the Black Sea.

The fountain's design was drawn by the architect Spitta and constructed by the architect Schoele with the German architect Carlitzik and Italian architect Joseph Anthony working on the project. The fountain was built in Germany and then transported piece by piece to Istanbul reassembled in its current site and officially opened on January 27 1901 on the birthday of German Emperor Wilhelm II. Wilhelm II's voyage to the Levant in 1898 was a state visit that the German Emperor undertook in the Ottoman Empire between 25 October and 12 November 1898. The Kaiser started his journey to the Ottoman Eyalets with Istanbul on 16 October 1898; then he went by yacht to Haifa on 25 October. After visiting Jerusalem and Bethlehem the Kaiser went back to Jaffa to embark on Beirut where he took the train passing Aley and Zahlé to reach Damascus on 7 November. This book is richly illustrated including many views of the cities of this voyage's destinations like Jerusalem Damascus Beirut Beirut Jafa Baalbek etc. On 10 November Wilhelm went to visit Baalbek before heading to Beirut to board his ship back home on 12 November. His visit spurred interest in the German Templer colonies in Palestine. One of the Kaiser's traveling companions Colonel Joseph von Ellrichshausen initiated the formation of a society for the advancement of the German settlements in Palestine named the Gesellschaft Zur Förderung der Deutschen Ansiedlungen in Palästina in Stuttgart. It enabled the settlers to acquire land for new settlements by offering them low-interest loans. A subsequent second wave of German settlers founded Wilhelma named after the Kaiser now called Bnei Atarot in 1902 near Lod Walhalla 1903 near the original Jaffa colony followed by Bethlehem of Galilee 1906. The German Settlement Society successfully encouraged some of the Templars to return to the official national Protestant Church. The non-Templar colony of Waldheim now Alonei Abba was subsequently founded next to Bethlehem of Galilee in 1907 by proselytized Templers now affiliated with the Old-Prussian State Church. The visit resulted in the highest-profile political event in the life of Theodor Herzl considered the founder of Zionism. Through the efforts of William Hechler via Frederick I Grand Duke of Baden Herzl publicly met Wilhelm II three times during the voyage once in Istanbul on 15 October 1898 and twice in Palestine 29 October and 2 November. The meetings significantly advanced Herzl's and Zionism's legitimacy in Jewish and world opinion. Wikipedia. Only one copy in OCLC Library of Congress. Karl Süssheim Collection no. 1300 900684728.

[OPENING OF JAPAN - EARLY IMPRESSIONS OF THE WORLD].
Two Albums of Meiji Copper Engravings.
Late Meiji. This collection of Japanese copperplate engravings comprises over 325 neatly trimmed and mounted prints meticulously arranged in two Japanese scrapbooks. These engravings are copies of 19th-century Western images recreated by a Japanese artist/s as evidenced by the occasional East Asian aesthetic influence on the landscapes. Most plates are captioned in Japanese with a few including the odd word in English. While many impressions are dark the earlier album features several lighter prints. The collection also includes the names of two publishers. <br> <br>The copperplate engravings are overall in very good condition with only occasional light damage. The backing leaves and covers show slight browning and the thin card wrappers exhibit some minor signs of wear but the albums remain in excellent condition. This charming and unusual pair of albums serves as a fascinating demonstration of Japan’s interest in the wider world during the late Meiji period reflecting the cultural exchange and curiosity of the era. The compiler of these images clearly was interested in Indigenous peoples of the world with a strong representation of these people including two of Australian Aboriginal people. Another Australian print shows Sydney from Circular Quay across to North Sydney and a fourth Australian wildlife. City views include Philadelphia and Washington. . unknown
