[Pharmacology].
A collection of 82 wooden boards carved on both sides with 820 "labels", five to each side, for herbal remedies used by a dispensing pharmacologist. Provincial southern China, 19th century.
12,5 x 35 cm. Some occasional light worming, some slight damage affecting the text of 3 boards. Contained in a Chinese leather travelling trunk. Using imperial measures - metric was not used until after the Revolution of 1911 - these receipts are headed with either the title Chung the Celestial at Chuan-Tuan, or Military General the Protector of the People at Chu-Ling-Shan. There are 'labels' for men, women and children, giving the ingredients and name of the remedy pills, potions or powders to "restore youth" and similar purposes. Chinese medicine is of great antiquity and devoid of any outside influence. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor, Huang Ti, wrote the first treatise on Chinese medicine in 300 BC. In its present form, the Nei Ching, on which most Chinese medical literature is founded, it is thought to date from the third century AD. The Nei Ching holds that "the blood current flows continously in a circle and never stops", anticipating Harvey by centuries. The Chinese materia medica has always been extensive and consists of vegetable, animal, including human, and mineral remedies. There were famous herbals from ancient times, but these ca. 1000 were collected by Li Shih-Chen in the Pen-ts'ao Kang-mu or Great Pharmacopoeia of the 16th Century. It was revised and reprinted many times in 52 volumes and is still authorative. The use of drugs is to restore the harmony of the Ying and Yang, related to the five organs, five planets, and five colours. Western influences did not occur until the 19th century, but today, with the revival of Taoist temples for healing which began to be tolerated again in the 1970s, and the profusion Chinese chemists, acupuncturists and hydrotherapists in the west, the Chinese can be said to have redressed the balance. The troubled history of the 20th century in China has made the survival of such ephemeral documents, and in such quantity, quite remarkable.

Printed colour pictorial map 33 x 48 cms; 41.8 x 54.5 cms sheet central fold sheet toned corners chipped with some loss to the bottom border and at the central fold in good condition; and on the verso "Movie-Go-Round" by Louella O. Parsons black and white photos and advertisements. Pictorial map printed for the weekend supplement of the Randolph Hearst owned newspaper the Los Angeles Examiner. The map-maker and artist Howard Burke had also worked for the San Francisco Examiner and was known for pictorial maps many with a persuasive or rhetorical edge and as here were designed to shore up American patriotism and defences against a wider world in the increasingly turbulent pre-war 1930s. The caption to this map outlines a multi-billion dollar 25 year proposal by Congressman J. Buell Snyder for a network of coast to coast transcontinental highways "in case of an attack by a foreign power at any point along the border". Buell Snyder earned the soubriquet "the father of superhighways" and during the War he was assigned to a Congressional Committee in charge of appropriations for the War Department. Scarce. .

[Portolan chart].
Portolan chart of the Mediterranean. [Italy, ca. 1670].
192 x 390 mm. Folding manuscript chart in ink and blue, red, brown, and greenish colours on vellum, embellishments and some islands heightened in gold. Framed (61:41 cm). A finely drawn, small-scale portolan chart measuring only 39 centimetres across, showing the Mediterranean Sea with the northern coast of Africa, but also the coast of Portugal. The deeply cleft coastlines are typical of portolan charts; windrose lines emanate from 12 compass roses; there are two distance bar scales in the upper right and lower left corners. Uncommonly, no toponymic information has been added to the littoral. Decoration is sparse, though a trimount with crosses at the lower right indicates the location of the Holy Land. For a similar example cf. a chart attributed to Giovanni Battista Cavallini or his workshop in the Library of Congress, dating from ca. 1678 (LC Nautical charts on vellum, 20). - Traces of three vertical folds with repairs to occasional damage near top and lower edges; a larger vellum flaw on the right edge, measuring ca. 3 x 3 cm, has likewise been re-backed with paper (without loss to image). A decorative example.

The second part of the book consists of translation of Le Maire's Voyage to the Canary Islands, and an anonymous work covering the islands and towns of the rivers of Bresalina, Gambia, Zamenee, St. Domingo, Geve, &c. "This is an account of a voyage to the East Indies (1690-1691) under command of the French naval officer Abraham Duquesne-Guiton. In 1690 a fleet of six ships was despatched under Duquesne-Guiton to rescue the Siam mission and to pick up company goods stored in India. The Siam enterprise had met with disaster due to the political upheavals in Siam during 1688. During this voyage the fleet visited Cape Verde, Madagascar, Pondicherry and Ceylon. After sailing along the coasts of southern India and attacking a few places, the ships returned to France in 1691 via America (the islands Ascension and Martinique) with a valuable cargo. The author describes in detail the people, the difficulties encountered during the voyage, the battles with the English and the Dutch, and gives observations on the fauna, etc."?Magedera.
