réf. 43956Amsterdam: David Fereira y Mosseh Moreno Henriques/ David de Crasto Tartaz David de Castro Tartas 5423. Hardcover. g- to g. Duodecimo. 6.5x4.5". 479pp. Original brown calf boards with gilt-stamped motifs and raised bands on the spine. Blue ribbon marker. Edges of the book block in red. Marbled endpapers. The title page is illustrated with copper plate engravings in the form of small vignettes of biblical scenes surrounding the text. This is an early Spanish-language edition of the complete Jewish High Holiday prayer book Machzor based on the original translation by Abraham Usque originally printed in Ferarra Italy in 1553. This edition contains some added material not previously present including most prominently Solomon ibn Gabirol's famed philosophical poem "Keter Malkhut" Royal Crown which over the years has come to be read as part of the Yom Kippur service in some Jewish traditions. This edition of the Machzor was published by David Fereira and Mosseh Moreno Henriques to serve members of the then sizable Sephardic Jewish community in Amsterdam. A significant portion of the community would have been ex-Marranos Jews who had outwardly converted to Catholicism during the inquisition in Spain who then immigrated and were able to reestablished their Jewish identity and thus were unable to read Hebrew hence the text's publication in Spanish. As stated in the foreword this edition includes some additions to the text not included in previous versions and omits some material deemed to have been unnecessary. The prayer book starts with the penitential prayers Selichot p.3-47 which includes decorative head and endpeices. This section is followed by the Rosh Hashanah service p.48-195 and then the Yom Kippur service including "Keter Malkhut" p.254-289. The title page is illustrated with scenes from the biblical stories of King David Saul and Goliath and contain small captions underneath with corresponding biblical passages in Spanish. There are a number of pagination printing errors including: p.45-46 are misprinted as 54 and 36 p.264 is misprinted as 164. p.450 is misprinted as 350 p.414 is misprinted as 144. Like in the case of the earlier 1652 edition of the work pages 305-352 are misprinted as "321-368" but in this copy the leaf containing p. 353-354 directly following "368" seems to be missing. Overall this edition follows very closely the 1652 edition of the same work in terms of pagination content and organization. Includes large initials throughout the text. All text in Spanish. Binding with rubbing scratches and abrasions to the covers spine and extremities. Some chipping to the head and tail of the spine. Interior front covers with some starting and the loosening of the endpapers. Title page with starting light creases stains and and light chipping on the top left corner resulting in slight loss of image. Some light water staining along the top edge of the pages with some other sporadic light staining throughout. Page 365 torn along the side edge with no loss of text. Starting at a number of pages throughout the book. Binding in good- interior in good condition overall. Binding protected with modern mylar. David ben Abraham de Castro 1630-1698 was a French-born Portuguese Jewish printer/publisher in Amsterdam. Between 1662 and 1701 his press printed the "Gazeta de Amsterdam" a newspaper for the exiled Sephardic Jewish community in Amsterdam. He started his printing career as a typesetter at the printing house of Menasseh Ben Israel a printer and leading Rabbi in community who printed the earliest Amsterdam edition of this work in 1630. Castro started his own business in 1662 making this edition among his earliest publications. References: RODRIGUEZ 1781 p. 643 KAYSERLING 1890 p. 62 PALAU1923 202416 PEETERS1933 1038.

réf. 1631New York: Harper & Row Publishers 1970. First American Edition. A superlative copy of the Nobel Prize winner's masterpiece and likely the most widely-read Spanish language novel aside from 'Don Quixote.' The present example is a review copy with the publisher's typed slip laid in; the slip differs from other Harper & Row review slips from the same period in that in states "IMPORTANT: please note that this is UNCORRECTED PROOF." Also laid into this copy is a brief one page typed letter from Harper & Row publisher Cass Canfield Jr. to Dr. Howard B. Gotlieb former Director of Special Collections at Boston University. The letter is dated 21 October 1969 - some four months prior to publication of the book - and mentions the enclosure of an advance proof of 'One Hundred Years of Solitude.' It isn't lost on us that the copy these materials came to us in is not an uncorrected proof of which we presently know of exactly 2 copies. We can only surmise that these proof materials were placed into this copy of the book in-house; Canfield whose business card is also laid into the book may have decided that Gotlieb should receive a hardbound copy and not a paperbound proof and thus would have placed the materials in one of the first hard copies manufactured. Evidence supporting copies in dustjacket with the "." on the front flap being printed prior to publication is discussed at length in Don Klein's 'Gabriel García Márquez: Una Bibliografía Descriptiva Tomo II.' In it Klein mentions that two editorial heads at Harper & Row received review copies directly from the printer both in jackets ending in "." Additionally the review copy received by translator Gregory Rabassa bore a jacket also ending in a "." and not the exclamation mark p.635-636. And while we are fully cognisant that review materials often migrate from copy-to-copy within the trade sufficient evidence is present that the migration here was more than likely the publisher's doing. The only such copy we have handled the only other known to us being the bibliographer's copy. Klein E2.a.1. First Printing one of 7500 copies. Octavo; hunter green cloth with titles stamped in gilt on spine; variant with headband in olive green and yellow no established priority; dustjacket; xiii 422pp 1 blank. Faint foxing to top edge else Fine. Dustjacket is the so-called second state with a "." instead of an excalamation mark at the end of the first paragraph on the front flap; price is unclipped with some minor wear at spine ends and a few very tiny nicks and tears to extremities; bright very Near Fine example.

1820réf. 58819København 1820 Original work published St. Pétersburg 1813 4to 190 x 258 mm. In later half cloth. Gilt lettering and stamp to front board. Two stamps to title-page. Manuscript in brown ink by Danish Rear Admiral Lövenørn. Fine and clean with text in very good and legible condition. 6 32 pp. coloured manuscript map of Strait of Sunda. Copy of Krusensterns 1813-map. 590 x 460 mm Danish Manuscript translation of Krusenstern's commentary to his of map of the Strait of Sunda and Batavia habour from 1813. We have been able to locate only one other copy of this work also a Danish translation from 1815 but lacking the map manuscript and printed in Danish Swedish or Norwegian. Despite the fact that the Strait of Sunda was sailed relatively frequently by European sailors Krusenstern's 1813-memoir is one of the earliest reliable pilots to this strait. From the present memoire: "Although a strait so important as that of Sunda frequented every year by more than 50 European ships ought to be as one would naturally suppose perfectly well known; notwithstanding which after having examined the charts of these coasts reputed the best I venture to say that I have been convinced that there does not exit one with which one can be entirely satisfied". Rear admiral Lövenørn became the first director of Royal Danish Nautical Charts Archive in 1784. hardcover

1821réf. 20381Milano: Presso Paolo Antonio Tosi & Comp. Typof Gio. Perottaography 1821. Hardcover. Pebbled cloth spines and corners. Marbled paper pastedown on boards. Very Good. A magisterial work on the immense symbolic and allegorical vocabulary used in painting and sculpture in the early Modern era. While no work could possibly encompass every iconographic essay nor hope to capture the infinite variants on particular iconographic notions this work comes as close as possible and brings order to the subject that probably baffles many a modern museum goer. Plus the illustrations are pleasing in and of themselves. 4to. Vol. 1: xii 17-240 8 pp. Missing pages with descriptions of plates 1 to 8. Vol. 2: 1-240 8 pp. Plate volume: 240 hand-colored etched plates all painted by Pistrucci. Think of a human personality trait or of any allegorical painting's subject and Pistrucci renders a version that captures the typical representation of it. Often times the representation is of a dichotomy such as day and night east and west early and late fertility and sterility. Pistrucci's style befits the mythological tenor of the genre and one can easily imagine the same images as part of the stately decoration of a monument an august public edifice a theater -- the ceiling fresco a frieze a sculpted pediment. Scattered light soiling including occasional foxing. Plates are generally clean and bright. Both volumes rebacked with black cloth spine labels preserved and mounted. Both copies tight. Moderate wear along edges. As mentioned already pages 1-16 missing from the first volume. Presso Paolo Antonio Tosi & Comp. Typof Gio. Perottaography hardcover
réf. 9594New Haven: Editions Wequetequock Cove 2006. Full Leather. Fine binding. Small folio 8.5" x 7". 32 pp. illus. Limited edition number 23 of 50 copies. Signed by Baltazar and Watsky. This copy sewn on meeting guards with silk endbands. Bound in dyed calf and finished with recessed stone veneer over sheep skiver dyed calf inlays and onlays as well as onlays in lizard. Subtly titled in blind across one of the onlays at the spine. Paper doublures with dyed calf hinges. Botehlo writes of this book being "filled with etchings of heavy lined and voluptuous shapes with textures and shade all done in black. The poetry evoked for me the verdancy of rogue plants that spring up between the cracks of concrete. It spoke of the appeal of being a snake allusions to original sin. I wanted the green onlays that have been dyed and embossed to be pillowed the stone inviting touch. I intended to create something that invites a sensory exploration." And here she has succeeded with astonishing grace creating a design that draws and keeps the attention. Wonderfully conceived and executed with exceptional skill. Botelho is among a select group of extraordinary design binders who are graduates from the American Academy of Bookbinding Fine Binding program. Editions Wequetequock Cove unknown
