184612mo., First Edition thus, with several woodcut illustrations in the text, neat nineteenth century signature on front free endpaper, title and first page of text; original publisher's brown grained cloth, boards with double frame border enclosing an elaborate an elaborate lozenge all in blind, very neatly recased with new cloth backstrip to style, original gilt lettering laid down, fore-edges lightly dust-soiled else a very good, crisp copy in sympathetically restored publisher's binding. According to the English editor's Preface this scarce work is 'an adapted translation of one of the most popular treatises on French Cookery, entitled La Cuisiniere de la Campagne et de la Ville ou Nouvelle Cuisine Economique, Paris, Audot, 1846'. The success and stature of the French original is compared to that of Mrs. Rundell. It has been suggested that this is in fact a second edition of a work with a similar title published by Thomas Boys in 1825 [Bitting, p. 554; Oxford, p. 157; Wellcome III, 67]; however this would contradict the Preface, and there is no mention of such a kinship in Oxford who lists both volumes. A very nice copy of an extremely scarce work. Oxford, p.177 (recording the publisher as 'David Boyne'). Not in Cagle.
rif. 117047Germany 19th century. . Six decorated and numbered cards boards covered with green marbled Vorsatz paper to one side and handwritten blessings to the other in Ashkenazi script and according to Ashkenazi custom; housed in a contemporary calf-covered slipcase 13 x 10 cm; edges rubbed. Scarce and original handmade blessing cards containing the six verses of the HaRachman blessing to be recited as part of the Brith ceremony. Presumably the cards belonged to a Mohel who would come to perform a Circumcision ceremony and then stay for the celebratory meal using the cards when the special additions are said after the Grace prayer.

rif. 145237Bas-Rhin Alsace France 1818. Broadside approx. 10½ × 8¼ inches. Ink manuscript on laid paper with red ink and pencil illustrations; watermark visible. Folded with creases light soiling irregular trimming and minor edge wear not affecting text or decoration; very good. Offered with: One-page German manuscript on matching laid paper with identical watermark also dated 1818. Folded with creases and a small perforation not affecting text; very good. Curious and crudely executed folk art this 1818 German-language taufschein baptismal certificate is decorated in ink and pencil. The text records the birth in “Diemringen” and baptism in “Rathsweiler” likely Ratzwiller a village near Diemringen in Bas-Rhin Alsace. Fitting the baptismal theme it features a chicken and egg motif symbolizing creation and new life. The opening lines in German transcription approximate read: “I’ve been baptized and registered The Book of Life includes me now My Father will love me eternally / And be merciful to His child / God surely knows me already for a long time / My name rests in His hand.” Alternating lines circles and triangles frame the text in an abstract border with the chicken and egg motif placed prominently at the top. Square blocks of color in each corner may suggest a picture frame or reference the brass bosses found on elaborately bound 18th- and 19th-century Bibles. Accompanying the taufschein is a one-page untranslated German manuscript written on matching laid paper with an identical watermark also dated 1818. Both items appear to have originated in Bas-Rhin and were acquired together from an estate in Lancaster County Pennsylvania—an area of early German-speaking settlement. The family may have emigrated from Alsace after the post-Napoleonic upheaval of 1815 when widespread political and economic instability spurred migration. The watermark on both sheets is of the “Vryheyt” “Freedom” type used in Holland and later copied in England Sweden and the United States; see Churchill’s Watermarks in Paper nos. 79–108. The full watermark—visible on the illustrated sheet—depicts a lion holding a stave within a crowned circle possibly encircled by the motto “Pro Patria Eiusque Libertate.” unknown

rif. 22057Italy Sixteenth century. Good with some modest surface abrasion and minor loss to a part of the applied stitched strapwork decoration; some light fading of original color in the thread of the portrait. Embroidered panel measuring appx. 454 x 570 mm. Apparels such as this were produced throughout Italy. The work would have been undertaken by a number of people to do the background portrait and decorative elements. A variety of thread was used. The piece is quite heavy indicating the use of metallic wire wrapped around silk thread. The border frame outermost perimeter is entirely metal wire thread. Color dyed silk thread is used in the portrait in order to effect "depth" and realism and to accomplish the figure's modelling. It is assumed that the subject is St. Anthony of Egypt given the cross that accompanies the figure. The strapwork foliate ornamentation is first seen in Islamic manuscripts and artwork; taken up in Italy where it was used in an array of decorative arts eventually to spread throughout Europe. unknown books

Ingleton; original printed blue wrappers bound in title with ownership inscription of noted Plymouth Dissenter Robert Govett 1813-1901 pp. 58 folding colour map; occasional light foxing a very good copy with a newspaper article on the Siege of Plymouth cut from the Western Daily Mercury 11 December 1874 mounted on 3 leaves at rear. A scarcely recorded account of the Siege of Plymouth by the Royalists in the Civil War locally published in the bicentennial year of the bloodiest episode in the city's history. Although the source documents on which the narrative is based are not explicitly stated it seems likely that the diary of John Syms Puritan naval chaplain and librarian was one of them. Having refused to surrender to the Royalists the citizenry of Plymouth signed a solemn covenant to fight to the last man; although poorly armed the defenders managed to overcome a formidable attacking force commanded by Sir Richard Grenville. The town held out for the next four years until the Parliamentary army finally prevailed over the Royalists. With the death of Cromwell in 1658 and the restoration of the monarchy in 1660 however retribution was exacted by King Charles II against the leaders of the Plymouth resistance many of whom were imprisoned.
