1909Best.-Nr. 1271Budapest: S.n. 1909. First English separate edition. Text in English. In publisher’s printed wrappers. Wrappers restored. Pages with traces of creasing. Otherwise in very good condition. First English separate edition. Text in English. In publisher’s printed wrappers. 28 p. First English separate edition of Stein’s report on his second major expedition to Central Asia between 1906 and 1908. The text is the translation of the paper Stein read at the Hungarian Geographical Society on April 23 and 26 1909 as it is stated on the first page. Although it reads on the cover in German that this is a separate offprint it is misleading because in “Földrajzi Közlemények” the paper was published in Hungarian supposedly the cover title of the Hungarian edition was – by mistake – also translated and for some reason not into English but German. The first English journal edition with slightly different text is the one in Geographical Journal for July and September 1909 which is the text of Stein’s lecture to the Royal Geographical Society meeting of 8 March 1909. Sir Marc Aurél Stein 1862–1943 was a Hungarian born British archaeologist mainly concerned with exploring ancient Central Asia.

A historical introduction is followed by an illustrated chronological catalogue of 490 specimens stating the designer year material size etc. -- Preface by Zoltan Toth: "You have opened a book which will present to you the most valuable needle lace in the world. Although this lace has the appearance of a Baroque and Secession masterpiece of applied art it is however a romantic dream which is irrefutably Hungarian. This is not folk art. I would rather say that it is akin to the music of Bela Bartok which is a part of the 20th century's universal musical poetry in such a way that the strings and percussion speak in the composer's mother tongue. Halas lace has been through many storms and hardships during its history of almost 100 years. It has survived the passing of countless fashion trends and resisted the experiments of modernization re-emerging from every trial in its original splendour. This is proved not only by the Grand Prix awards of the St. Louis Paris Berlin Milan and Brussels World Fairs and the first prizes gained from a number of foreign exhibitions but also by the fact that Halas lace has become a special gift of protocol for those in the highest circles. This is how Alice Roosevelt the American president's daughter; the Dutch Queen Julianne; King Charles IV and Queen Zita; the Hungarian regent Miklos Horthy and Pope John Paul II have all come to have owned Halas lace. An impressive collection has also been bought by British aristocrats and the United States Senate. It has appeared as an exclusive souvenir in the windows of Europe's top hotels and jeweller's. In modern times this needle-lace has been rediscovered by international public taste and remarkable attention is devoted to this noble artistic treasure. Halas lace made with the world's finest flax thread can attribute its world fame not only to its ethereal appearance its inimitably rich and brilliant stitching technique and its authentic design but also to the fact that among the truly worthy laces it is perhaps the only one which has not yet succumbed to the industrial age. Every square millimetre is produced entirely by hand. Halas lace deserves its honorable title and it deserves the payment of our homage as it is truly the Queen of Laces."
