1902In-32 (mm. 65 x 40), p. pelle coeva (dorso ben restaurato), decorazioni e tit. oro ai piatti e al dorso, in astuccio mod., pp. (2),XV,1097,(5), con un ritratto del Manzoni. "Edizione originale" in questo formato. Cfr. Bondy "Miniature Books", p. 97: "One of the most compendious one-volume works ever published in miniature format is the 1902 edition of Manzoni's great novel "I promessi sposi". The printer-publishers are the brothers Salmin of Padua who were responsible for the sensational "Dantino" and the tiny Galileo. In this volume dedicated to Queen Margherita of Savoy they have departed from the use of the ultra-small type used in these earlier volumes and employ a good legible 4,5-point type. Spielmann, n. 355A, writes: 'One of the most important and extensive works ever produced in such tiny compass'". Esemplare ben conservato.

1920rif. 58739Philadelphia PA: The Philadelphia MuseumsCommercial Museum of Philadelphia Exhibits Bureau ca. 1920. Archive of 52 mounted silver gelatin photographs sized 7 x 9 in. mounted on 9.75 x 12 in. gray studio board mounts all imprinted w/ white lettering at lower right corners and captions below images a few have photographer’s original imprints w/in the negative and printed explanatory text on light gray versos minor edgewear rubbing wear to some corners minor bowing to mounts as usual a few boards w/ edgewear wear at corners 1 photo w/ soiling still a VG group of photos w/all retaining bright strong contrast. This archive serves as an excellent surviving visual aid from the “Miniature Museum” exhibits created by the Commercial Museum of Philadelphia before and after World War I in order to promote foreign trade and develop international commerce for U.S. products. Sponsored by manufacturers suppliers and many different companies who would supply products to the Commercial Museum these interactive exhibits were intended to illustrate not only useful products of other countries and the advantage for trade in the U.S. but also to underlie important facts of modern industry. Dispatched for free these sample exhibits contained a cupboard at the base in which an educator or lecturer could place photographs and additional exhibits which would revolve on loan for assorted subjects to be taught. The photographs preserved here include those used originally with such trays as the “Beverages; Brush Fiber; Carbon; Coconut; Cotton; Cow; Flax; Gums & Resins; Iron; Ores & Metals; Rice; Rope Fiber; Rubber; Silk; Spice; Sugar & Wheat.” For instance this unknown instructor ordered for the “Beverages Drawer Exhibit” the photographs “Picking Tea” in Japan “Tea Factory” in Ceylon “Tea Ships” in Formosa Taiwan or “Picking Coffee” in Brazil which would have then been used with a series of large folding or rolling maps to be displayed as part of a multi-media presentation. As the cases were heavy and fragile these were sent out in place and further education materials would be dispatched to enhance their use but unfortunately classroom usage resulted in frequent lost and damaged photographs. Also present here are photos for “Camels Carrying Charcoal” into Constantinople Turkey; “Cutting Bananas” in Jamaica; “Cocoanut Plantation” & “Making Cocoanut Oil” in Ceylon; or the “Iron Furnace” in Hankow China or “Rope Factory” in Hong Kong. Two of the photos for Mexico include one still retaining the original caption for Charles Betts Waite of a smelter operation in Aguascalientes Mexico and another of the Sirena Mine in Guanajuato Mexico with the photographer’s imprint scratched out in negative but appears to have been a Winfield Scott image. Other images show the bustling harvesting of spices in Ceylon Singapore Jamaica and German East Africa rubber plantations in the Amazon Valley of Brazil and panning gold in Vancouver B.C. and hydraulic gold mining in Otago New Zealand with image by Burton Bros. of Dunedin. The Rice and Silk sections both offer excellent views of both processes in late Meiji and Taisho-era Japan. The Commercial Museum which originally opened in 1897 was the foremost source of international trade knowledge for American manufacturers in the early 20th Century. Slowly other Trade Commissions and Exhibitions supplanted the Commercial Museum and by the 1950’s the Miniature Museum visual aid exhibits had become obsolete and many had been broken up or photographs and samples dispersed through use. Although the Museum continued to provide programming and display exhibits until 1994 it was then closed indefinitely. See: Charles R. Toothaker Curator Educational Work of the Commercial Museum of Philadelphia Bulletin 1920 No. 13 Dept. of the Interior Bureau of Education 1921 includes images of assorted variations of the original oak sample cases and even large display of possible photo choices; Katelyn Wolfrom Rise and Fall of the Philadelphia Commercial Museum: How a Forgotten Museum Forever Altered American Industry Independence Seaport Museum Spring 2010.

rif. 979524 color-printed panels with 12 illus. & 12 panels of love poems on verso on reverse 20 erotic color-printed panels pasted-in. Miniature book 48 x 50 mm. orig. color-printed pictorial boards with color-printed endpapers. Japan: n.d. A very rare example of a miniature shunga book color-printed on the one side with a conventional but rather "suggestive" series of love poems and on the reverse with a series of 20 erotic prints pasted-in. Each of these erotic prints has a medallion with a gently erotic title. There is no author title place of publication or date for this rare object. We suspect that it was printed in the late Edo period. Fine copy a little thumbed. unknown books

The final page shows a light red stain slightly affecting the text. Lacking its matching decorative slipcase.

rif. 36477probably England 20th century. An 18th century scene showing a man and woman in elaborate dress surprised in a boudoir by another woman entering the room. 4 inches in diameter. Glazed and framed in black wood and gilt metal frame of earlier date. An 18th century scene showing a man and woman in elaborate dress surprised in a boudoir by another woman entering the room. 4 inches in diameter. An amusing jeu d'esprit very possibly done by the artist to oblige the owner of a old and previously empty frame. The elegant scene is not very lacivious--everybody is fully dressed although the surprised lady who turns away from the evidently unwelcome visitor shows a fair amount of leg and the gentleman is holding his tricorn hat in what might be regarded as a somewhat compromising position. The artist an Englishman born at the end of the 19th century studied with the eminent Walter Sickert and went on to exhibit landscapes and portraits at various prestigious venues in England and France. unknown
