1792Best.-Nr. 65431792. 59 leaves enumerating the names of grapes cereal crops and oils and their prices for nearly two centuries. Small folio 273 x 178 mm. 18th-cent. vellum over boards tail of spine defective two of four ties lacking. Burgundy: 1622-1792. A fascinating and rare survival which details the precipitous rise in the prices of Burgundian wine and the emergence of a hierarchy among regions and vintages over a 170-year period. This document consisting of three gatherings 28; 28; 3 leaves bound together and written in several legible hands provides a wealth of information on grain harvests in the region which varied greatly from year to year and indicates years with disastrous harvests. The present manuscript constitutes a unique history of agriculture in Burgundy especially pertaining to the evolving market for Côte de Nuits wine. “Burgundy had no experience like the boomtime of 18th-century Bordeaux. No new wines were invented no new districts planted. The Bordeaux picture is all expansion and creation; the Burgundy one of evolving tastes and techniques of new market forces and overall of slowly progressing definition: a more precise notion of the character style and value of the wine from each corner of the Côte…In the Côte de Nuits the notion of the ‘cru’ was further advanced…The vineyards were generally less overcrowded and by now planted with cuttings rather than layers; hence more deep-rooting. Increasingly in the 18th century owners of the most prestigious crus selected their best grapes to make separate cuvées the best vat being called the ‘tête de cuvée’.”–Hugh Johnson Vintage 1989 pp. 267 & 272. The motivation for compiling this record-book may have come from the introduction of a law in 1622 that outlawed the sale of Lyonnais and Beaujolais wines as Burgundian. The records of the first three decades consist mostly of grains and oil from the region but in the early 1670s wines begin to predominate and the lists for each year become increasingly long. It is very likely that at this point landowners would have shifted to using any arable land for vastly more lucrative grapes. By the 1690s dozens of grape varietals are noted from communes such as Auvilliers Les Cailles Chambolle Chorey Comblanchien Corgoloin Côte de Beaune Gilly Magny Saint Georges Saint Julien Les Cailles Vaucrains Pouilly Prissey etc. Prices for wine rose enormously from the 1690s and experienced peaks in 1701 1733 and 1770. Wines are increasingly categorized by the mid-18th century according to vineyard and in some cases cru. The name “de Bays” appears several times in the manuscript and the signature of “de Bays” is found at the end of the year 1771. Very few comparable documents survive and the present manuscript provides a vast amount of data on the prices for wine grapes and grains in the 17th and 18th centuries.

1833Best.-Nr. 1714281833. VEVEY. Fête des Vignerons 1833. Continuous panorama scroll containing 30 consecutive lithographs numbered 1-30 from the 1833 Festival of the Vignerons at Vevey hand-coloured at the time of publication backed with linen and conjoined to form a continuous scroll of 14.4 meters long. Plate size: oblong folio 170 x 470 mm. in a new cloth folding box. Lausanne: Lithographie de Spengler & Cie 1833. An extremely rare complete copy in contemporary hand-colouring of this remarkable series of plates in scroll format depicting the 1833 Festival of the Vingerons at Vevey Switzerland -- since 1791 this ancient festival has been celebrated five times per century. The scroll shows the entire procession in panorama format; the procession moved in three groups: Herds and Flocks plates 1-8 the Harvest plates 9-18 and Winemakers plates 19-30. The festival celebrates the vineyards and wine production in the Vevey area. The artist of the work was Christian Gottlieb Steinlen 1779-1847 a resident of Vevey who acted as the official artist for the 1833 Festival see Thieme-Becker. Sources for the Festival of the Winegrowers are unusually diverse: besides Greco-Roman gods such as Bacchus Plates 20 & 22 there were representations of Judeo-Christian myths such as the story of Noah first winegrower in the Bible -- see Plate 27.

1750Best.-Nr. 0001563Good. 1750. On offer is an absolutely sensational ancient original 1750s manuscript sailor's vade mecum or reference manual handwritten by and or for a mariner over 260 years ago. The name William Wine appears on the rear inside cover dated March 4th 1788. The handwriting is similar throughout to the signature but it is inconclusive if Mr. Wine is the author original owner or a later owner. The first page detached but present is dated November 1750. There are many many tables of information illustrations charts drawings etc. that are indexed and with over 420 pages written in a small meticulous hand there are within these pages everything that a mid-18th Century senior officer or mate would require being filled with geographical mathematical financial navigational and geometric information and there are also sections detailing carpenter's work joiners painters glaziers lavers masons plus foreign exchange and monetary info and conversions in foreign countries. There are sections for algebra calculus trigonometry all manners of measurement whether liquid or dry and even how to calculate the contents of a globe with many of the mathematical sections deal with measuring heights and distance from afar measuring and surveying dealing with casks all information that a Lieutenant 1st mate or Ship's Master or even a Captain would need. We conclude that the information and the quality of the manuscript book vellum which double folds and creates an envelope that would protect the pages from the elements plus a metal clasp broken give further credence that this book was owned by a senior officer and most certainly of English origin as evidenced by the section regarding Oxford and Cambridge terms plus a chart that helps one establish the dates of the Easter season leap years tides . The volume begins with a few pages of indices and in the first section one finds pages of geographical place names and distances from one to another: "the coast of Carolina Virginia etc. to Newfoundland" and the "Bohema Islands" and another "The Coast of y.e main Continent in y.e West Indies" and the degrees of longitude and latitude are listed alongside each listed place. The standard depth and sheer volume of information also leads us to conclude that the seaman was likely an officer of a merchantman as opposed to a casual traveler. This is an absolutely unique manuscript relic of ancient seafaring and the age of sail. The 7 x 4.5 x 1.5 inch book is generally soiled on the covers but the interiors are good save for the loose page and the odd stains to the inner pages. The cover is stiff somewhat fragile and has some cracks/tears but overall the book is G. ; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF GREAT BRITAIN ENGLAND BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES NELSON HORNBLOWER AUBREY RAMAGE REFERENCE MANUAL HANDBOOK NAVIGATION MARINE NAUTICAL NAVAL TIDES VADE MECUM SAILOR SAILING AGE OF SAIL SEVEN YEARS WAR TRAVEL ASEA SURVEYING LONGITUDE LATITUDE MATHEMATICS GEOMETRY GEOGRAPHY PORT OF CALL HARBORS SEAFARING SEAFARERS HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORYantiquité contrat vélin document manuscrit papier Antike Brief Pergament Dokument Manuskript Papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antigüedad hecho vitela documento manuscrito papel. . hardcover
1772Best.-Nr. 117Extraordinary rare first edition of the famous treatise on Cyprus wine by Giovanni Mariti A complete analysis on wines grapes vines and production technique Mariti Giovanni. Del vino di Cipro ragionamento di Giovanni Mariti socio corrispondente dell'Accademia dei georgofili di Firenze: Rei agrariae avgendae. Firenze : G. Cambiagi MDCCLXXII 1772. 8vo 220 x 155 mm original printer cardboard pp. 2 XVI 127 1 illustrations along the text engraved title page before the dedicatory letter at leaf a1r a chalcographic vignette with coat of arms of the dedicatee Lord Nassau Clavering signature a⸠πa1 A-Hâ¸. xylographic illustrations along the text one full page plate depicting tool for wine production In his treatise Del vino di Cipro About the Cyprus Wine published in Florence in 1772 by Cambiagi Mariti dedicates an ample analysis to the wine of Cyprus discussing a lot about the types and varieties of the vines and wines produced in the different regions of the island and reporting its own "observations" made in the countryside around Larnaca where it draws indications and procedures to follow in Italy too to reach the maximus possible efficiency of the crops as Mariti himself well describe in the Preface to the volume: "In questo mio Ragionamento ho avuto il riflesso di appagare non solo la curiosità di qualche dilettante de i grati e generosi Vini di Cipro e di dar la norma per qui allignarli ma ancora di poter giovare alla Coltivazione alla Manifattura e alla Conservazione de i nostri Vini Toscani e particolarmente per migliorare alcuna sorta di quegli che oggigiorno sogliono qui farli in scelta maniera il che mi lusingo possa ottenersi dal genio de i nostri Agricoltori Mariti 1772 p. 3. In this reasoning I had the will to satisfy not only the curiosity of some amateur of the grateful and generous Wines of Cyprus giving the rules to list them but also to be able to improve the Cultivation the Manufacture and the Conservation of our Tuscan Wines and particularly to improve the quality of the wines produced there using the support from the genius of our Farmers" More in details he starts addressing the issue of the poor resistance of Tuscan wines to navigation deepening the observations already published in the first volume of his "Travels in Cyprus". Mariti studying grapes and winemaking processes in use in Cyprus gives an account of the island's wines distinguishing them by types based on the quality of the grapes the length of the aging process and their conservation and also giving data and figures relating to the sale of the product both in the East and in the West. Mariti dedicated this essay on the wines of Cyprus to Lord Clavering whose arms are engraved at the top of the first leaf of the dedication. The preliminary leaves also include an account of the Accademia dei Georgofili devoted to the study of agriculture which was founded in Florence in 1753 and is still active today. Giovanni Filippo Mariti 1736 –1806 he was an Italian antiquarian scientist and historian. Intellectual with multiple interests he became famous in Europe mainly for his travels in the East. Mariti became interested since his youth in natural sciences cultivating botany and especially agronomy studies and in 1772 he became a corresponding member of the Accademia dei Georgofili founded in Florence on July 4 1753 by Ubaldo Montelatici under the impulse of that renewal of agriculture that the Habsburgs-Lorraine hoped for and promoted to remedy the problems that arose in their lands starting from the first decade of the second half of the century regarding crops and food supplies. Mariti lived for seven years at Larnaca in Cyprus becoming honorary British vice-consul and became increasingly familiar with the wine-making process of the island. A shortened version of this treatise was included in the French translation of his "Travels in the Levant". Beside Del Vino di Cipro he is remembered for the treatise titled Della Robbia sua coltivazione suoi usi Florence 1776 dedicated by Mariti to the Grand Duke of Tuscany Pietro Leopoldo concerning a plant the Robbia Madder cultivated in the East and used for the colouring of clothes which Mariti hoped to introduce in Europe and for Odeporico o sia itinerario per le colline pisane which was published in Florence in two volumes between 1797 and 1799. The first volume of this work which remained partly unpublished deals with the agricultural history of the Tuscan hills the second is dedicated to the history of the water bath today Casciana Terme. The two volumes are divided into chapters that take the form of letters written to an imaginary friend. George Clavering-Cowper 3rd Earl Cowper 1739 - 1789 was an English nobleman and politician. In 1780 he purchased Villa Palmieri in Fiesole with a splendid view of Florence. Skilled diplomat and politician he decided to obtain prestige by turning a blind eye on the relationship that his wife had established with the Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo from which he managed to obtain the title of Prince of Nassau d'Auverquerque. The art collection that Count Cowper built during his years in Florence was a great investment of time and money for him. Among the most important works that were part of his collection we mention two paintings by Raphael the first known with the name of Piccola Madonna Cowper and the other as Madonna Niccolini-Cowper.

Best.-Nr. AQ27989vs.: vs. 1820-40s An archive comprised of sixty-eight loose articles of late Georgian and early Victorian manuscript and printed ephemera relating to the purchase of alcohol including a number of bill-heads for merchants in inter alia Glasgow and London. The majority of the manuscript material - predominantly receipts and purchase orders - are addressed to Nottingham-based wine merchant Thomas Bailey 1785-1856 father of poet Philip James Bailey 1816-1902 noted author of Festus 1839. The elder Bailet who established his business in 1817 relinquished control in the 1830s in order to devote himself more fully to his roles as newspaper editor and author. The later material in this archive dating to the 1840s is addressed to Bailey's son-in-law and successor John Brown. A remarkable opportunity to acquire an archive of mid-nineteenth century commercial material directly connected to the provincial wine and spirit trade. . [vs.], [1820-40s] unknown

Ils étaient propriétaires du fief de la Perrière, sis à Saint-Lager, dans le vignoble du Beaujolais. Ce livre est du plus grand intérêt pour l'histoire des vignobles du Beaujolais. C'est un traité historique et surtout économique adressé au propriétaires de cette région pour valoriser leurs vins. Une description des vins de première classe (Juliéna, Odenas, Quincié, Fleurie) avec leur historique. Il dénonce les abus des négociants parisiens qui "tripotent" les vins du Beaujolais (Oberlé - Fritsch). Bien complet des deux errata qui manquent souvent ! RARISSIME. ! Ce livre faisait partie de la Bibliothèque culinaire de Victor Michon, qui fut l'un des plus grands cuisiniers du début du XXe siècle. Il fut formé aux fourneaux de sa mère. Aujourd'hui encore, le Prix Victor Michon au Concours International Gastronomique d’Arpajon. fait partie des titres dont s'honorent beaucoup de chefs "étoilés". Cuisinier des Grands, il fut le cuisinier de l'Ambassade d'Autriche - Hongrie, située à l'Hôtel Matignon à Paris au moment de la Première Guerre mondiale. Il organisa le banquet de 3 000 couvert pour les fêtes russes, le menu offert au Roi des Belges par le président Félix Faure et le déjeuner d’Isabelle II de Castille. Mais ses recettes reflètent une cuisine à la fois bourgeoise et simple. Il présida au journal « Le cuisinier français » ainsi qu’à « L’académie Culinaire de France », créée en 1883. Sa bibliothèque privée comptait les plus grands noms de la gastronomie française : Grimod de La Reynière, Vincent La Chapelle, Jules Gouffé, Brillat-Savarin, Antonin Carême, Etienne, Urbain Dubois, Escoffier et bien d’autres dont notre exemplaire ! La tomaison "2" s'explique par la réunion de trois volumes avec la même reliure, et reprenant la "crème" de l'œnologie du 18e siècle !
