1820ref. 3572n.p n.p c1820s 1820. A set of six hand-coloured lithographs on card showing the hand signals made to communicate from a distance when game shooting. Mounted on linen with two backed with marbled card so that these form the covers when folded. The folded set is housed in a marbled paper covered card slip-case. Each card measures 66x132mm and unfolded the whole is 200x265mm. The prints are in superb condition with the colours particularly fresh and bright. They are undated but the clothes are clearly of the Regency period and much is made of the newly fashionable top hat which was the headwear of choice for the sporting gentleman for most of the nineteenth century. In part they are instructional showing how to signal when a dog is required or when you want someone to "bring the powder and shot" but there is a gently humorous element as well particularly in the last card showing our hero holding his gun aloft. Balancing on the end of the barrels is his top hat. This elaborate manoeuvre means we are told "luncheon". Charming and the best part of the day. We have been unable to trace another set of these prints. � n.p c1820s hardcover

1879ref. 13448London: Sampson Low Marston Searle & Rivington 1879. First. Hardback. Very Good. A very good copy. Uncommon. "Erchomenon; or the Republic of Materialism is one of the earliest examples of dystopian fiction and a sleeper-awakes narrative in the tradition that Wells would later develop more famously. A Victorian English gentleman reading by his fireside in 1877 finds himself transported to a technologically advanced future London whose aerial cars compressed-air transport and vast urban density suggest a world of material progress. For Watson the technological progress is ironic backdrop to a darker argument. A society organized around French philosopher Auguste Comte's positivism and Darwin's natural selection having expelled God and Christian faith has produced something monstrous beneath its efficient surface. Children are separated from their parents at birth and raised collectively in state baby farms. Euthanasia is applied to the sick and infirm as a matter of routine. The first scene the protagonist witnesses on arrival is a doctor strangling an injured man on the street while the crowd watches with indifference. Marriage has been replaced by contract and Westminster Abbey by a Temple of Humanity. Christianity survives only in remote communities clinging to their old beliefs." Mostly Dystopian Books. A little rubbing to the edges softening to the spine tips and a slight lean. Small stamp to the title page and front endpaper has a corner missing. Top edge dusty.

1850ref. 9387Japan c. 1850. Manuscript map sheet size 48.2 x 73.7 cm ink on laid paper. The focus of the map is Toyama a significant sea-port in what was once Etchu province on Honshu. On stylistic grounds the map appears to date from the mid 19th century and the script is pre-Meji era. Toyama and the surrounding towns are shown in the yellow circles linked by red roads and regions are also named. It is unsigned on the back of the map is written 'Etchu Map'. Most of the text concerns distances a form of mileage table. There is a note top right which appears to indicate that the information in red is less certain than the information in black. Various other things are shown on the map: shrines and temples hot springs and a gate where travellers would have to show passports. Map unknown
