Pp. 769- 803 a. pp. 671- 717. Entire issues offered. Bessel's papers: pp. 785-793 a. pp. 703-710. Some scattered brownspots. First appearance of a milestone paper in astronomy giving the solution of the great problem of distances in the universe which had baffled astronomers ever since the time of Copernicus announcing the FIRST SUCCESSFUL DISPLACEMENT OR PARALLAX OF A FIXED STAR and hence deducing the FIRST RELIABLE DISTANCE OF THE EARTH TO A FIXED STAR. The parallax observed corresponded to ab. 600.000 times that of the earth from the sun. On these grounds Bessel calculated the distance to about 11 light years and this was confirmed by fresh investigations by Bessel in 1839-40 the second paper offered. In 1842-43 it was also confirmed by C.A.F. Peters at Pulkowa. It is the first published instance of the fathom-line thrown into celestial space.Bessel communicated his observations in Comptes Rendus in a letter to Humboldt the offered paper dated Nov. 5 1838 in "Monthly Notices" in letter to J. Herschel and in "Astronomische Nachrichten" Vol. 16 No 365-66 pp. 65-96 1838 where a more detail account was published.Ther paper "Bestimmung der Entfernung des 61sten Stern des Schwans" in "Astronomische Nachrichten" is dated at the end: Altona 1838 Dec. 13.Bessel's investigation was hailed by John Herschel when Bessel was awarded the R.A.S. gold medal "The greatest and most glorious triumph which practical astronomy has ever witnessed". "For determining the parallax of 61 Cygni Bessel selected two comparison stars of magnitude 9-10 at distances of roughly eight and twelve minutes of arc. 61 Cygni is a physical double star whose components differ in brightness by less than one magnitude. The distance of sixteen seconds of arc between the components favored the accuracy of the determination of the parallax because pointing could be carried out with two star images. After observing for eighteen months by the fall of 1838 Bessel had enough measurements for the determination of a reliable parallax. He found that p = 0.314 with a mean error of ±:0.020. This work was published in the Astronomische Nachrichten 1838 the first time the distance of a star became known. Bessel’s value for the parallax shows excellent agreement with the results obtained by extensive modern photographical parallax determinations."

One leaf a bit creased. First printing of South's second large star catalogue of the distances and positions of double and triple stars."Double stars essentially discovered by Wiiliam Herschel were of great interest throughout the nineteenth century—new ones being found and position measurements made more precise with each improvement in telescope construction. South working with John Herschel during the years 1821–1823. reobserved the double stars charted originally by William Herschel mainly for the purpose of detecting position changes. Their observations helped verify the newly recognized orbital motion of these neighboring stars. Their resulting catalog of 380 double stars presented to the Royal Society in 1824 earned them the gold medal of the Astronomical Society and the grand prize of the Institut de France. For his second catalog of double stars two years later South was awarded the Copley Medal of the Royal Society."DSB. unknown
