1835Best.-Nr. 496A slim book of 135 x 215 mm with 68 pp. In Dutch. Original red hardback. Two rectangles with the space between space filled with floral patterns on both covers, the word "WETBOEK" appearing on the front cover and a Masonic symbol on the back cover. A sticker, which seems decades old, has been placed on the spine. A few words have been penned in black ink with a feather by A. Canneman on April 2, 1859, with a Masonic signature. An esoteric engraving on p.3. 44 "articles" and a Bijladen at the end. This booklet is actually a document from 1835 that establishes the rules and constitutions for the higher degrees (above the Master's degree) within Freemasonry in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It regulates the operation of the Grand Chapter and its associated chapters, often associated with the Modern or French Rite. It contains the rules for the organization and procedure of the so-called "high degrees" (the fourth through seventh degrees in the 19th-century French rite). The Order of Freemasons under the Grand Chapter of the High Degrees (founded in 1803) is a Dutch obedience that builds on the "blue" or symbolic lodge.

1956Very Good Arabic Original wrappers. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Arabic. 63, [1] p., 1 portrait of Atilhan. First edition of this Arabic edition of Turkish "Kendi vesikalarina go?re Masonluk nedir?" [i.e. What is Freemasonry according to their own documents?], written by Atilhan who was a Turkish career officer and antisemitic writer, who was one of the initiators of the 1934 Thrace pogroms. It was published in Iraq, probably Qirkuk (The phone number of the publishing house is written on the cover). During the Turkish War of Independence, Atilhan was appointed as the commander of the Zonguldak-Bartin and Havalisi Fronts. It prevented the spread of the French Army in this region. Upon the victory of the War of Independence, he left the army and went into writing. In his anti-semitic book "Suzy Liberman, Jewish Spy", in 1935 the Turkish Army gave the order to buy 40000 copies and distributed them amongst the officers. The book is banned on September 17, 1936. In 1942, he was arrested by the government of the time on the grounds that the coup was being prepared. He was incarcerated for 11 months before being released by the results of an investigation led by Fevzi Çakmak. During the one-party period of Turkey, Atilhan who was close to the ideas of Turkism contributed writings to two of the most influential magazines of Islamic politics in early Turkey; Sebilürresad and Büyük Dogu. His writings and his political activities affected the growing Islamic movements in Turkey. He was one of the founders of Millî Kalkinma Partisi in 1945 and the Islam Democratic Party in 1951. He was arrested in 1952 along with Necip Fazil Kisakürek in Malatya as responsible for the assassination attempt of Ahmet Emin Yalman. He was detained for 11 months and 15 days. In August 1964 he was invited to the congress of Islamic State in Somalia. He was elected as the Chairman of the executive committee of Congress. This post was his last major mission. Only two copies of this edition can be traced in OCLC: 320298568.
