1880ref. 21429London: George Routledge & Sons 1880. Very Good. Disaster strikes a military band in this farcical print pulled from "Military Misreadings of Shakespere" a humorous color plate book published around 1880 the conceit of which was to apply quotations from Shakespeare to some aspect of military life but to do so with an outrageous misreading of the quote's intended meaning. The quoatation applied here comes from Hamlet Act I and is "His Liberty is a threat to all." As far as the illustration here goes one need not know the source to find the image amusing in an over-the-top slapstick way. And although the print is extracted from a book one wouldn't know it just by looking at it. It comes close to passing as a watercolor and one sees none of the usual indications that it was a page from a book. Visible 16.6 by 20.5 cm. With frame and matting 38 by 40.5 cm. The frame and matting are particularly attractive and we can't imagine anyone wouldn't want to retain them. Indeed they are important in making an appealing decorative object. The print does have some light foxing yet that issue doesn't significantly mar our enjoyment of the print. George Routledge & Sons unknown

Folio. 140 ff. With four-part woodcut border and 10 woodcuts in the text, as well as several woodcut initials. Later half vellum with marbled covers and ms. title to spine. Pretty edition of Seneca's tragedies, edited by Girolamo Avanzi, Gellio Bernardino Marmitta, and Daniel Caietanus. "Reproduces the 1510 edition" (cf. Schweiger). "Texte encadré par le commentaire [...] Page du titre: encadrement ornemental avec fond de hachures obliques et figures de deux daupins affrontés sur les côtés. - Dans le texte: dix vignettes d'une taille rude et grossière" (Essling). The dolphins (four of them, in fact) are cleverly hidden within the ornaments of the woodcut border. Each play is prefixed by an unsophisticated, but prettily designed Renaissance woodcut. A few interspersions in an appealingly cut Greek type. - Slight edge tear to f. 16. Some wrinkling to gutter throughout. Faded 17th century ownership to title page. Some fingerstaining to margins early on, otherwise a very clean and crisp copy from the collection of the steel industrialist Giacomo Galtarossa (b. 1916), president of the Associazione industriali della provincia di Verona (his etched bookplate on front pastedown).

Folio. 136 leaves. 17th century calf (rebacked). Latin translation of an Arabic treatise on simple drugs, traditionally attributed to "Pseudo-Serapion" (or Serapion the Younger), but recently identified as the "Kitab al-adwiya almufrada" (Book on Simple Drugs) by Ibn Wafid (d. 1067), a pharmacologist and physician from Toledo. Ibn Al-Wafid was a man of immense knowledge in all medical matters and therapeutics, with the skills to treat grave and insidious diseases and affliction. He preferred dietetic measures; if drugs were needed, he gave precedence to the simplest ones over compound drugs, and among these, he recommended the least complex, to be used only sparingly and in the lowest dosage possible. While the original Arabic version of the book is considered lost, a manuscript written in Hebrew-Arabic as well as partial translations in Latin and Catalan are preserved. This translation was prepared around 1290 by Simon Januensis (Simon of Genoa) and Abraham ben Shem-Tob of Tortosa. Very rare: a single copy in postwar auction records (Sotheby's, 1977: £1500).
