1814réf. 84London: George Eyre and Andrew Strahan 1814. First American Edition. Full calf. Very Good. Miniature Bible 16mo 3.5" x 2" tan calf with embossed backstrip & four hubs newer endpapers all edges gilded complete in ~ 422 6 blank pages. Charming yet sturdy very small Bible dating from the War of 1812. The binding is attractively embossed leather with of course some rubbing. Small binder's ink stamp stating "Armstrong" on rear endpaper. The pages are of strong rag paper which is slightly age-toned occasionally bearing slight discolorations and often slightly dog-eared though that has been reversed in most cases.

1875réf. 6967Persia: Unpublished 1875. No Binding. Near Fine. 8x14.5cm Six Persian miniatures apparently retelling the Barburama the life story of Emperor Babur founder of the Moghul dynasty. Each of the leaves is 11x17.5cm with an inset tempera painting set within a triple red frame 8x14.5cm. Overleaf manuscript in Farsi written in black ink with red ink underlining.

1840réf. 673Philadelphia Pa. 1840. Calling Card printed one side only. 40 x 75 mm. 1 ½ x 3 inches. Painter's name scratched out and "Miss Louise Bradley West Springfield" is penciled in Engraved border pinholes. James W. Williams was a miniature portrait painter. He also experimented with early photographic processes to produce his portraits. He was born in England about 1787 and set up shop in Philadelphia. The Smithsonian holds two of his works; a Talbotype paper print with applied color of Edward Robinson Squibb and an ivory type of two girls untitled. Ivory types were positive photographic prints resembling a hand-painted ivory miniature and were first produced in the mid-1850s. As the term suggests some of these images were made on thin sheets of actual ivory or artificial ivory made of pigmented and hardened gelatin. Louise Bradley 1818-aft 1880 of West Springfield Massachusetts acquired Williams's calling card and used it as her own in this instance since she crossed out his name and penciled in her own. She married a farmer Charles White and lived and died in West Springfield. Portrait miniatures began to flourish in 16th century Europe and the art was practiced during the 17th century and 18th century but the development of photography contributed to the decline in the popularity of miniatures. . unknown
