‎South America: Travel‎

‎EXTENSIVELY ANNOTATED AND PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED PHOTOGRAPHIC SCRAPBOOK OF BIGOTED AMERICANS TRAVELING IN CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA‎

‎Various locations in Latin America 1938. 100pp. containing 230 photographs as well as postcards maps dozens of menus greeting cards and other travel ephemera. Thick folio. Contemporary brown paper-covered cloth string-tied. Boards lightly scuffed and worn. Some leaves loose moderate edge wear and chipping. Photographs clean and nice annotations highly legible. Good plus. An illuminating and entertaining illustrated scrapbook documenting the travels of six friends on a trip to Mexico Panama and various points in South America including Colombia Peru Chile Argentina and Brazil in 1938. One of the opening leaves has four photographs of the travellers comprised of two elderly couples and two single women captioned "Rogues to the Pampas!" Throughout the album there are numerous photographs both vernacular and professional a great many capturing locals in native dress as well as images of scenery and the city streets. The photographs are accompanied by colorful descriptive annotations. <br> <br> The voyage began January 20 1938 aboard the Japanese NYK Liner S.S. Bokuyo Maru. There are numerous menus and other ephemera from the ship as well as a photograph of the Japanese crew signed by the ship's officers. The first photographs depict Manzanillo Mexico a week later with captions such as "Worst city we ever saw says the man from Capetown South Africa who has been around the world" and "Sid Thompson says 'I bet if these Mexicans had a good hot bath they'd find a suit of underwear they didn't know they had!" They picture a "peddler of hats and drink" and a "man carrying load on his head" in the streets of Manzanillo. They then take a train to Colima Mexico on which a passenger is noted to say "Jesus Christ you'd think they never saw an American before" and where they eat papaya for the first time. In Panama on February 3 they see "a native with an iguana in each hand - we also saw our first sloth and a land crab" and they witnessed "a negro funeral." <br> <br> On February 5 the travellers stop at Buenaventura Colombia where they experienced an earthquake and their first sight of the Andes along with a "strong acrid wet odor that pervades atmosphere everywhere." There are several photographs of the city and the locals including one of "natives" fishing accompanied by significant commentary on the locals: <br> <br> "The natives have plenty of fish which they catch in nets thrown by hand - plenty of bananas and fruits and cocoanuts and will not work enough to buy anything but a little clothing rice and coffee. There are no public schools in Colombia - a few religious schools inland. All education for boys and girls of better class is in U.S. or Europe. U.S. buys 85% of Colombia's coffee. Population 80% negroes on coast. Government is unstable foreign capital will not make very much of an investment here but Standard Oil Co. has a $52000000 pipeline in Colombia. Malaria is the greatest plague here though typhoid is also guarded against in fruits and vegetables. Buenaventura is wholly tropical." <br> <br> The group then proceeds to Lime Peru where they arrive "in a dense fog - worst in 10 years." They take numerous snapshots of various cultural sights around the city images of "guano birds" along the shoreline and a "Typical Peruvian Indian of the High Andean Plateaus." They stayed three nights at the Hotel Bolivar before proceeding to Cuzco Tacua and Mollendo which they describe as "a dirty town." Still they took several photographs here including "Descendants of the Incas at Cuzco" an "Indian woman riding Burro - typical scene" in Tacua and other street scenes. <br> <br> Chile was next for the group. They were in Santiago by February 23 and shot several images at a street market such as a soap dealer the flower market a corn stand and other scenes. Shortly thereafter they traveled to Valparaiso Puerto Varas Puerto Montt and other Chilean locations. They captured the port of Valparaiso the Three Brothers at Chilean Lakes scenes in the Chilean mountains Lake Llanquihue and include in the album a professional real photo postcard captioned "Typical Araucanian Indian Hut" among other images. <br> <br> The travellers then moved on to Argentina. They describe Buenos Aires as "the most beautiful city in South America so far as the city itself is concerned." Their time in the city is illustrated exclusively with postcards but they include a plethora of descriptive text for numerous monuments landmarks harbor scenes gardens and other sites. <br> <br> During their time in Brazil the travellers document coffee production cattle and other agricultural settings as well as cities and architectural features. These include numerous images of Rio de Janeiro which "no picture however beautiful can portray with any accuracy the beauty of Rio." On March 30 the group heads "from Buenos Aires down the muddy Rio de la Plata" towards the Amazon River. Here they include real photo postcards of "Typical Indians of the Amazon" an "Amazon Indian Hut" and "More Indians - These are some of the most primitive people living." Among the images taken on the streets of Brazil is one showing a black woman walking with a bundle on her head which is captioned "N asterisks ours mammy in pink dress and head load - and was she furious when I took her picture! If looks could kill I'd be buried in Brazil." <br> <br> The group rejoined their cruise in Brazil boarding the Rio de Janeiro Maru and finished their journey at the end of April. A detailed revealing and lengthy travel account extensively illustrated and annotated by a group of judgmental American tourists. hardcover books‎

Content clean and tight original brown end papers attractive copperplate inscription to the front blanks of both volumes "Maria Sudell Woodfold Park 1813 Given to Elizabeth Sudell Sep 1824". see below for biography of Maria Sudell and family A very good to fine set. Bibliographic note: First published in 1797 the second edition published in 1799 with this edition appearing a few years later. The work records Southey's visit to the Peninsular with his uncle the Rev. Herbert Hill immediately after his own marriage. "a richly detailed account of his journey in Spain and Portugal between December 1795 and May 1796 from his arrival in Coruna in the northwest of the Spanish coast to the heart of Castile and into Madrid before making his way to Lisbon. Structured as a series of letters written as he travelled across the Iberian Peninsula Letters Written During a Short Residence in Spain and Portugal engages with the tradition of English travelogues while borrowing traits from other genres such as the journal translation literary criticism history and the picturesque guidebook. On his way Southey comments on every aspect of Spanish and Portuguese society from local food and wine bizarre customs literature and theatregoing to Iberian politics and religion. In his letters Southey who would grow to become one of the leading Hispanists in late Georgian England contrasts the political religious cultural and social systems of Britain and two of the oldest nations in the European continent in a way that raises important questions about cultural contact and transmission during the Romantic period." Biography; Maria Sudell nee Maria Livesey 1782 - 1848 wife to Henry Sudell 1764 - 1856. "Henry Sudell.a Blackburn cotton merchant and manufacturer who at the height of his success was reputed to be a millionaire a fantastic sum of money for the early 1800s. He became the most influential merchant and manufacturer in Blackburn; he bought the Woodfold estate and built Woodfold Hall at Mellor. Here he lived in a regal state with a deerpark wildfowl and his own pack of hounds. His entry into Blackburn was regarded as a state occasion when he came in his magnificent carriage drawn by four perfectly matched horses ridden by postilions in a livery of crimson and gold. All caps were doffed at his approach! But his wealth and his charitable giving all came crashing down in 1827 when he speculated on the Continental and American cotton markets. The price of cotton plummeted and he was bankrupted.Prior to the news of his losses being made public Henry Sudell and his family left Woodfold secretly in the middle of the night to hide their shame."

‎SOUZE (Auguste) ; DUBOIS (Mme E.)‎

‎[Plaque à dorer pour le plat supérieur de la reliure de l'ouvrage l'Espagne ancienne et moderne par E. Dubois publié à Rouen chez Mégard en 1859] [joint] L'Espagne ancienne et moderne‎

‎Paris ; Rouen : s. n. : Mégard, vers 1859 ; 1859. UNE IMPORTANTE ET RARISSIME PLAQUE À DORER DU MAÎTRE GRAVEUR AUGUSTE SOUZE‎

‎209 x 124 x 6 mm, bronze, signature à l'avers : « A. SOUZE », inscription au revers : « 2-1/2 » - In-8° (263 x 178 mm), 416 pp. et [4] ff. de planches sous serpente de papier rose, percaline verte, dos lisse orné d'une plaque, encadrement à froid sur les plats avec une plaque différente au centre de chacun des plats, tranches mouchetées (reliure éditeur de l'époque). Les premiers graveurs de plaques dont les noms nous soient parvenus furent Haarhaus et Lieberrhe qui exercèrent à Paris durant le second quart du XIXe siècle. Mais c'est Auguste Souze, ancien élève du renommé Tambon, dessinateur habile et graveur émérite, qui fut sans aucun doute le plus célèbre. Lesné nous dit : « la gravure des fers à dorer est un genre tout particulier, il tient plus de la gravure en bois que de celle en taille-douce. Peu de graveurs réussissent à graver ce genre [...] ». La gravure s'effectue au burin dans le bronze, on n'en voit parfaitement les traces ici au fond des tailles de cette plaque à gaufrer et donc à dorer (l'inverse étant impossible compte tenu de la profondeur insuffisante de la taille). Nous ne sommes pas en présence d'une simple plaque géométrique et symétrique (du type « cathédrale » par exemple), mais d'un long et complexe travail de composition artistique destiné ici, qui plus est, à orner un plat supérieur. Comme le chantait Lesné : « C'est en vain chaque jour qu'on vient les fatiguer / pour avoir de leurs fers, comme par préférence, / il faut leur demander cinq ou six mois d'avance » et selon E. Bosquet, « la composition du dessin et la gravure de la plaque constituaient la plus grosse dépense pour la reliure commerciale ». Cependant ces plaques alors nombreuses n'étaient que des outils que l'on faisait fondre quand elles étaient démodées. Il y a 30 ans, M. Ardant n'avait conservé de cette époque que quelques plaques et fers pour les livres religieux, la plupart signés Longien. Mame a été sinistré en 1940. Lenègre a changé de production dès la fin du XIXe siècle. Il n'y a qu'Engel qui conservait encore un fonds important qui fut dispersé et fondu en 1968 1. Ces plaques sont donc devenues fort rares de nos jours et d'une insigne rareté lorsqu'il s'agit de plaques d'un telle ancienneté et d'une telle qualité. On ne connaît que très peu de reliures et cartonnages de la maison d'édition Mégard alors qu'elle fut à l'époque l'imprimerie « la plus importante de Rouen ». Nous connaissons 4 décors ornant cet ouvrage tiré à 3000 ex., dont 2 sur percaline incluant celui « de luxe » issu de cette plaque. Auguste Souze, fut le plus fameux dessinateur et graveur de plaques à dorer et à gaufrer de sa génération. Il fut l'inventeur de la technique à plaques multiples amenant la polychromie au décor des cartonnages. Apprenti, ouvrier graveur puis contremaître chez Tambon, il installe son atelier vers 1855 à Paris s'établissant successivement rue Jean-de-Beauvais, 20 rue de l'École-de-Médecine de 1860 à 1867 puis 79 rue du Cherche-Midi (1891). Il Employait 25 ouvriers juste avant de cesser son activité en 1892 qui sera continuée brièvement par son fils, puis par son brillant neveu Guillaume dit Paul Souze, et enfin par les fils et le petit-fils de ce dernier dont l'activité s'éteindra en 1981.‎
