1962ref. 40401962. Carpenter Scott. Inscribed portrait photograph documents the public image of an original Mercury Seven astronaut who became the second American to orbit Earth during the May 24 1962 Mercury Atlas 7 mission. Piloting the spacecraft Aurora 7 Carpenter completed three Earth orbits and conducted photographic and scientific experiments during the fourth crewed flight of Project Mercury. The photograph supports research into the visual presentation of early astronauts Project Mercury Cold War patriotism and the circulation of personalized astronaut portraits during the formative years of American human spaceflight. NASA identifies Carpenter as one of the seven astronauts selected for its first astronaut class in 1959. Black-and-white portrait photograph undated. 8 x 10 inches. Carpenter appears in a suit and tie beside an American flag presenting a formal civilian likeness that joins astronaut celebrity with conventional symbols of national service. Inscribed and signed in black marker at the upper right "To Daniel Marcus Very Best Wishes Scott Carpenter." The personalized dedication identifies the photograph's original recipient and distinguishes it from an unsigned publicity portrait. The juxtaposition of Carpenter's business attire and the flag emphasizes the civic and representative role assigned to the Mercury astronauts as visible embodiments of the United States space program. Carpenter had served as John Glenn's backup for the first American orbital mission before flying Aurora 7 becoming the fourth American in space and the second to orbit Earth. His mission lasted approximately four hours and fifty-four minutes and concluded with a landing substantially beyond the planned recovery area followed by his retrieval and transfer to the aircraft carrier USS Intrepid. No specific defects are identified in the supplied description; image inscription and signature remain dark and clear near fine. Personalized patriotic portrait connecting a founding Mercury astronaut with the public culture of the early American space program. unknown

1893ref. 134814Paris: c. 1893. A finely executed illustrated manuscript documenting a pleasure cruise around Britain on the steam-yacht Medjé in the summer of 1892. The voyage won the Union des yachts français medal for the most interesting cruise of 1891-93 a sharp silver print of which with the presentation letter from the comte de Montaigu is mounted at the front. Portions of the narrative appeared in Le Yacht in 1894. The account offers a lively Belle Époque tour of the British Isles - effectively a circumnavigation shortened by the Caledonian Canal - with etched illustrations after pen-and-ink drawings by the Rochellois maritime artist Georges Charpentier 1846-1925. The yacht belonged to Xavier Eugène Schelcher 1867-1948 a wealthy Parisian stockbroker and new member of the Union des yachts français. Departing Le Havre in July 1892 the Medjé ran down the English coast to Plymouth passing through the Royal Naval Manoeuvres and prompting newspaper speculation that she carried French naval observers. Welcomed in Plymouth with a tour of the naval installations and an abundant lunch the party continued west shooting seabirds and bathing off Penzance before crossing to Ireland. At Kingstown and Dublin they visited the Royal Irish Yacht Club and commented - sometimes archly - on the city's poverty accompanied by Charpentier's vivid sketches. Excursions into Wicklow and a crossing to Holyhead allowed visits to Liverpool and Birkenhead where the builders of the Medjé's engines Cochran & Co. were proudly noted. Further stops included the Isle of Man Belfast Robinson & Cleaver's celebrated linen shop and the Giant's Causeway. They then headed for Glasgow detouring to Iona and Staffa and entered the Caledonian Canal Charpentier illustrating Neptune's Staircase and other scenes. Scotland's landscapes and Edinburgh's beauty impressed them deeply; excursions to the Trossachs prompted reflections on Walter Scott's romances. The rapid return down the east coast - Berwick Newcastle Scarborough Harwich Ramsgate - elicited little enthusiasm Newcastle offering "only a dungeon". Relief greeted the sight of Cape Gris-Nez and home. The Medjé was a 25-metre 43-ton twin-screw steam yacht built in 1889 at the Maudslay Son & Field yard powered by Cochran & Co. engines delivering 96 h.p. Schelcher was an active yachtsman winning two gold medals at the 1900 Paris Olympics; his son Rémi later competed at the 1936 Berlin Games. Schelcher is also known to have commissioned a comparable illustrated album of his 1897 cruise to the Norwegian fjords. Overall this is an attractively produced richly illustrated and often satirical record of British touring at the height of luxury yachting. Quarto 318 x 247 mm. 57 leaves of neat manuscript text titles and headings in a calligraphic Ronde hand occasional rubrication; 52 superb etched plates after pen and ink drawings by Charpentier the first additionally signed "A. Barret Sc." deck plan and full-page track-chart map; text and plates are both printed on fine polished vélin the plates on a slightly lighter weight.
