‎Bel exemplaire (petit manque à deux coiffes supérieures et trois mors juste fendillés ; quelques petites restaurations discrètes), très frais, de cet ouvrage célèbre, véritable traité de l'art de la guerre pendant la seconde moitié du XVIIe siècle. Né à Paris (1648 - 1711), Antoine de Feuquières consacra toute sa vie à la carrière militaire et, d'après Saint-Simon, c'était un homme très intelligent, d'une rare bravoure, l'un des grands hommes de guerre de son temps. Entré très jeune, à 12 ans, dans l'armée, comme volontaire dans le Régiment du Roi - infanterie, il devait participer à nombre de campagnes, toujours s'y illustrer et gravir rapidement les échelons de la hiérarchie ; il participa à la Guerre de Dévolution, aux sièges de Douai, Tournai, Courtrain, Audemarole et blessé à celui de Lille ; aide de camp du maréchal de Luxembourg puis colonel d'un régiment de cavalerie allemande, il accompagna celui-ci en Hollande et en Franche-Comté. Il servit successivement sous les ordres du Maréchal de Créqui ; sous le marquis de Monclar, il eut l'occasion de couvrir la retraite du quartier-général du Roi bien aventuré ; puis ce furent les campagnes de la ligne d'Augsbourg où, à la tête d'un millier de cavaliers, il réussit un immense raid sur Augsbourg et Pforhyheim, incendiant et rançonnant les villes allemandes et rapportant au Roi deux millions de numéraires, etc.‎

‎[Football] [Game] [Maps] Held, John (Jr.); Edited by Charles E. Thorp‎

‎Harvard-Yale November 24 1928‎

‎Yale University Athletic Association. Good. 160pp. Thin quarto 31 cm The front wrap is detached but present. The rear wrap is absent. Two small closed tears to the fore-edge of the front wrap. Scarce. Cover art by Utah artist John Held Jr.<br /> <br /> Utah Artist John Held Jr. 1889-1958 was a prominent illustrator of the 1920s and 1930s. He began by drawing sports and political drawings for The Salt Lake Tribune when he was just 16 years old. Held moved to New York City in 1910 where he went on to gain notoriety for his drawings in the popular magazines "Life" "The New Yorker" "Vanity Fair" "Judge" and "College Humor." His work epitomized the Jazz Age. He is most recognized for creating the short-haired "flapper."<br /> <br /> The cover of this publication features one of Held's maps. Held's maps illustrate the diversity of his art while at the same time serving to demonstrate Held's interpretation of various notable places and things. Kori Alexander writes in his article entitled Relevant Magic in the Art of John Held Jr. "While it was Held's caricatures of the young college chaps and flapper girls that earned him public notoriety it was his linoleum cuts and pen and ink maps that fortified his legitimacy as a social commentator."

Large folding Japanese coloured map of the United States with 3 inset maps at foot of map showing main railways air and highway routes and hemispheres at the top right. Some browning mainly visible on reverse still a good copy. 66 x 81cm. An intricate and detailed pictorial map of the United States published in Japanese by the US State Department. The same type of map had been published since 1945 in English and subsequently in other languages. The Japanese language map is hard to find. The map is undated but was probably produced in the 1950's. The images include depictions of women board riders in two piece swimsuits of the sort popular in the 1950s but the inset text lists Alaska and Hawaii as external territories of the US indicating that the map was produced before they attained statehood in 1959. <br> <br>An inset panel provides information on the area and population of the US the population of major American cities mineral and other resources climate and topography. A note at the bottom right hand corner of the map states that copies of the map can be obtained free of charge from your nearest US Information Office. <br> <br>Every region of the country is decorated with an illustration of the natural resources industries or cultural or historical resources associated with that particular place. These include images of early colonial settlers the birthplaces of Mark Twain and Woodrow Wilson Booker T. Washington's house and Abraham Lincoln's grave; images of major dams oil fields coal mines cotton plantations etc. various animals and crops and images of ships cars and public buildings including the Statue of Liberty located rather oddly far out at sea. . 国務省.

‎[Globe - Terrestrial]. Malby & Co.‎

‎Malby’s terrestrial globe. [London], Malby & Co. (engraved by Chas. Malby), 1 January 1848.‎

‎Diameter: 45.5 cms (18 inch), height in stand: 64.5 cm. An engraved terrestrial globe with 12 gores and 2 polar caps over a plaster-covered core, and the engraved horizon ring on the wooden stand, all coloured by a contemporary hand. In a contemporary wooden stand with 3 turned legs supporting the horizon ring, and 3 turned stretchers with a cylindrical centrepiece with a knob on the underside. Further with a contemporary brass hour circle and a slightly later iron meridian ring (and probably the axis pivots). Only recorded copy of the 1848 edition (preceded only by one recorded copy of the 1846 edition) of Malby’s 18 inch (45.5 cms) terrestrial globe, the largest he engraved and much rarer than his 12 inch globe. “Debai” (Dubai) is shown on the Gulf coast, only 15 years after the al-Maktoum dynasty took charge of it in 1833. The globe seems to be intended especially for navigational use, with not only a grid of parallels and meridians (with the prime meridian through Greenwich), but also the irregular curved lines indicating the variation of magnetic from geographic north (“isogones”), at 5 degree intervals. From these one can clearly see where the magnetic poles were. Malby seems to be the first and almost the only globe maker to show them. The engraver signed the present globe “Chas. Malby” and signed the 12 inch globe of 1845 described by Dekker “C. I. Malby”. He must therefore have been Charles Isaac Malby (1816-post 1868). Thomas Malby, Charles’s brother, first set up as a globe publisher around 1839 and was trading as Malby & Co by 1841. Charles may have engraved nearly all of his globes. The earliest Malby globe known to survive is dated 1842, but his earliest recorded 18 inch globes are a pair at the Mariners’ Museum in Virginia: the celestial globe dated 1843 and the terrestrial globe dated 1846. The Austrian National Library has an 18 inch Malby terrestrial globe dated 1850, but we find no further example until 1872. The present 1848 example appears to be unique. The horizon ring has an owner’s stamp on the printed surface, nearly due east, apparently a coat of arms in a wreath, but difficult to make out. The horizon ring and globe have a dozen small cracks repaired and a few small gaps in the surface image, some repaired, but are otherwise in good condition. Extremely rare and lovely large globe, with the fascinating and unusual graphic presentation of geomagnetism. Cf. British Library online cat. BLL01013005847; Dekker, GLB0081; Dunn & Wallis, British globes up to 1850 (1999) 209 & 443; World in your hands (Rudolph Schmidt coll.) 7.12 & 7.13; Yonge, Early globes (1968), p. 46.‎

‎[Goodacre, William (after)].‎

‎Die natürliche Brücke in Virginien: Vereinte Staate. [Austria?, ca. 1840s-1850s].‎

‎Pen, black ink and watercolour on paper (590 x 440 mm), framed in a passe-partout (755 x 580 mm). Large, high quality watercolour of the Natural Bridge in Rockbridge County, Virginia. This natural arch spanning 27 meters was, along with Niagara Falls, one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States in the late 18th and early 19th century. As an old natural wonder in a young country, it played an integral part in the formation of America's national identity and was "certainly a worthwhile side trip for travelers who hoped to experience the sublime quality of the American landscape" (Howat). The sublime aspect is often present when from the 1830s onward artists start depicting the Bridge: as in the present watercolour, where small figures are placed in the foreground to show the massiveness of the 88-meter geological formation. - The view shown in the present watercolour appeared as an engraving in John Howard Hinton's History and topography of the United States (1832) after a drawing made by the American landscape painter William Goodacre (1803-83). The image was widely pirated and imitated and appeared in numerous other publications, including Meyer's Universum in 1837, with a caption identical to the one on the present watercolour. The anonymous artist probably copied the image from the 1837 publication, but made several changes, simplifying most of the foliage but adding the large fern, duplicating the kneeling hunter and adding an extra deer. Interestingly, the engraving shows a tree peering out from behind the bridge, pencilled in outline, but never painted in. - From an Austrian private collection. In very good condition. Howat et al., American Paradise, pp. 272-274. Kastning, Natural Bridge, p. 20. Cf. Sears, Sacred places.‎
