1771rif. 11121Paris: Veuve Desaint & Nyon. Good with no dust jacket. 1771. First Edition. Leather. Is viii 214 pp approbation. Condition of this scarce first edition is fair-good antiquarian. It is an octavo measuring 5" x 8" bound in what appears to be original figured calf with marbled edges. The spine and front cover of the leather appear to have suffered a scorching in a few spots - you can see the dark areas on the photos. Joints cracking and tender as is common for bindings of this era. Original marbled endpapers nice headers and tail pieces pagination is viii 214 pp approbation and the plate at the rear as called for. Inside back covers has some old notations in pencil some foxing as normal but otherwise clean and unmarked. Folding plate. This is the first edition of a scarce work written by Perret a master cutler a maker of knives and surgical instruments for the greatest surgeons of the time and written for the "artists and workers" who used steel in their work. Accordingly it is very technical work with information such as "cast steel cannot be used for objects that need to be welded to iron as it can only be united to other steel and even then care is required if it is to succeed". Jean-Jacques Perret was born in 1730 in Beziers France son of a cutler his adventure with cutlery started at the very young age of 12. After learning the trade Perret got involved with surgeons and his specialty quickly began towards surgical instruments. Of course razors were a big part of surgical instruments at this point in history and Perret not only made razors but is credited by some historians in the field as being the "father of the safety razor". His "La pogonotomie" or "the art of shaving oneself" contains the safety razor precusor. In 1771 he wrote another book "L'Art du Coutelier" or the art of the cutler the most important work on cutlery at the time which goes into all phase of cutlery from metal choice to forging grinding etc. This 1779 work looks at the basic material used in knives swords razors etc. - steel. In it his examines the different qualities of the metal its uses its forging and the tempering process. With a marvelous large folding engraved plate. A nice if somewhat eccentric copy of this unusual first edition of an important work on steel its uses forging and tempering from one of the most important cutlers of the 18th century. Memoire Sur L'Acier Dans Lequel on Traite Des Differentes Qualities De Ce Metal De La Forge Du Bon Employ & De La Trempe.

Small folio 305 x 195 mm. bound in contemporary mottled calf tan morocco spine label spine compartments gilt preserved in a half morocco folding box. An early seventeenth century sammelband of works on perspective and architecture including a first edition of a comprehensive work on perspective by Lucas Brunn d. 1640. In the tradition of Albrecht Dürer Wentzel Jamnitzer Levinus Hulsius and particularly Hans Lencker the Elder Brunn unfolds a system for measuring and accurately representing lines areas and volumes in various perspectival positions and discusses an instrument of his own invention designed to achieve this. Included amongst the plates are two diagrams of Brunn's perspectival instrument and a great number of images using blocked Roman letterforms as models- choosing the ten letters contained in the name of his patron Johannes Georgius duke of Saxony viz. I O H A N E S G R V. Perhaps the most spectacular image is the elongated "anamorphic" human skull in the manner of Holbein's 1533 painting of "The French Ambassadors" which appears on plate 24. The sammelband also includes a beautifully printed De Bry edition of Jacques Perret's Architectura et Perspectiva. A remarkable book which is comprised of plates and text dealing with imaginary fortifications and city plans. The most extraordinary aspect of the engravings centers on the surreal quality of the fortifications and the visionary designs of the buildings including one thirteen-story edifice complete with rooftop sculptures urns and fountains which prefigures the modern urban skyscraper. The final book the fête book lacks the title dedication and plates 6-11. Binding a bit rubbed a few marginal light stains overall an appealing copy. For Perret OCLC lists only the Art Institute of Chicago Universities of Minnesota and Pennsylvania in the U.S. and for Brunn it lists 9 copies. Only NYPL for the fête book.
