Founded in 1848 Philadelphia High School for Girls also known as Girls’ High holds the distinction of being the first municipally supported secondary school for girls in the United States. Initially established to train teachers for Philadelphia’s common schools the institution underwent a division in 1893. The Normal School relocated to a new site while the high school remained at Seventeenth and Spring Garden Streets adopting the name “Philadelphia High School for Girls” during this transition. Presently it continues to use this name and serves as a public college preparatory magnet high school exclusively for girls situated in Philadelphia. Wikipedia unknown

Best.-Nr. 3730411Pittsburgh. 1835. 12¼ x 7½ inches. One page circular previously folded and bound. A Large notched-out area to inner margin does not affect text short edge-tears else Very Good. Subscription circular announcing a gathering of Pittsburgh’s citizens and trustees appointing Gilbert Morgan the second chancellor of what is today the University of Pittsburgh. Interestingly the Board of Trustees pledged and sought funds from the public to “build up and sustain a School of General Science in Pittsburgh”; “to meet the wants of a city like Pittsburgh and to place a thorough liberal education within the reach of all who might feel disposed to confer its blessings upon their children”; ”to endow professorships and “to purchase a Library and Chemical and Philosophical Apparatus.” “The University’s buildings along with most of its records and files were destroyed in a widespread 1845 fire that wiped out 20 square blocks of the most valuable part of Pittsburgh.” Wikipedia Unrecorded in OCLC. unknown
Best.-Nr. 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

Together they address three of the central controversies of the Reformation settlement: Protestant rejection of the authority and constitution of the Council of Trent proposals for the reform and proper ordering of the Church and Georg Cassanders conciliatory argument for restoring Communion to the laity under both bread and wine.The volume has particularly attractive bibliophile provenance. It bears the engraved maritime ex-libris and ownership stamp of the eighteenth-century collector Captain J.-G. Michiels followed by the manuscript ownership inscription J. F. Vandevelde identifiable with the theologian librarian and major Belgian bibliophile Jean-François / Jan Frans Van de Velde 17431823. Both collectors are independently recorded among earlier owners represented in the celebrated library of the Rev. Joseph Mendham whose collection was particularly rich in Reformation Roman Catholic and Council of Trent material and subsequently passed to the Law Society. The present volume bears the Law Society armorial bookplate; an origin in the Mendham Collection is therefore highly probable although its precise Mendham catalogue entry has not yet been identified.Bound in eighteenth-century calf with gilt border to the boards marbled endpapers and red edges. The binding is now defective with both boards detached and substantial loss of the spine leather but the text block remains sound and the three constituent works are internally notably well preserved. An appealing association volume whose succession of ownership mirrors the long antiquarian interest in the religious controversies represented by its contents.PROVENANCECaptain J.-G.
