1772rif. 195273Paris: Gueffier 1772. An apparently unrecorded publication in an elaborately embroidered binding A musical almanac absent from bibliographies and untraced in institutional holdings here intricately bound. The amorous theme of the lyrics intended for familiar melodies and game for unmarried players are echoed in the binding's motifs of love. An acrostic spelling "Louise" suggests the name of the beloved whom the title page declares was the original reader. The contents comprise songs for each month and sign of the zodiac. These are set to familiar airs apart from one "La Terre bon conseil aux rois" which does not yet have music to accompany it. A calendar for 1772 records feast days and lunar phases. Its "New Game of Oracles" includes a printed numbered chart forming the game board. Players select a number while blindfolded to reveal a song for either a bachelor or mademoiselle. A number of almanacs were published under the name Dumeny or Dumenil. Gueffier published more than 20 almanacs between 1741 and 1774 many of which had similar musical or amorous tones. Neither Saffroy nor Grand-Carteret record this publication though the latter records an almanac of the same name published by Cailleau in 1774 521. As with the present almanac no copies are traced of this later publication which may be a reprint. Quadragesimo-octavo 88 x 50 mm pp. 74. Woodcut ornamentation throughout. Contemporary binding of cream silk spine couched with vertical passing threads boards framed with fine vertical strips of metal plate enclosing wide arabesque border of passing threads couched in wave-like arrangement metallic passementerie to board fore edges front board with lovers' knot and crossed arrows top winged flaming hearts in pink and green silk rear with pansies or violets in purple pink yellow and green silk blue silk pastedowns gilt edges. Embroidery bright and neat silk mildly soiled loss to pink bud embroidery at rear occasional loss to thread at edges contents lightly uniformly toned. A beautifully preserved example. hardcover
1803rif. 373912New York: D. Longworth at the Shakespeare Gallery 1803. 24 engraved vignette illustrations by Peter Maverick. 5-80 2pp with the calendar and memorandum pages i.e. pp. 41-64 engraved. 12mo. Original wrappers each comprised of two plates backed onto each other i.e. 4 plates in total engraved by Anderson. Publisher's red morocco gilt slipcase. 24 engraved vignette illustrations by Peter Maverick. 5-80 2pp with the calendar and memorandum pages i.e. pp. 41-64 engraved. 12mo. As least three issues of Longworth's Belles Lettres Repository were published for 1801-1803 with slightly varying titles: The American ladies & gentlemen's pocket almanac and elegant belles lettres repository. for 1801 Evans 36816; The American ladies' & gentlemen's pocket almanac and belles lettres repository for 1802 Shaw & Shoemaker 50194; and the present titled at the bottom of the front wrapper and as a caption title at the head of p. 5. An advertisement on the recto of the final leaf states: "This is the third Belles-Lettres-Repository. The two former have been done at the expense of the Publisher. this he hopes will be at the expense of lovers of neat things." At the bottom of the same page are descriptions of the plates and illustrations including the "frontispiece title-page i.e. front wrapper L'Allegro and finishing piece Il Penseroso form the cover" and the plate on the inside front wrapper being "Orpheus Eurydice and Cerberus." The vignettes by Maverick illustrate "select passages in Hayley's 'Triumphs of temper' with extracts underneath each. At the foot of each of these pages are the kalendar sic pages for 1803 and the intermediate spaces are ruled for belles-lettres selections &c. . these alternate with twelve other vignettes architectural and picturesque with ruled memorandum pages under each the whole engraved." Shaw and Shoemaker locate only the example at the Huntington which collates precisely as the present; i.e. wrappers comprised of two engraved plates mounted to each other i.e. the front wrapper being pages 1-4 and the text beginning on page 5 with a caption title at the head. An additional example with the same collation at the Hay Library Brown University confirms the work is complete as issued A scarce example in the original slipcase; American publisher's slipcases or sheaths from the 18th century are very rare. The earliest noted by Tanselle is on an 1801 edition of the American Ladies & Gentlemans Pocket Almanac Tanselle 01.01 and plate 9. Shaw 2551 dating the imprint as 1802 locating only the example at the Huntington Library ; Pomeroy J.R. Alexander Anderson 1775-1870 105. See Tanselle 01.01 D.
