réf. hum300mAvant de s’autoproclamer en 1902 “le plus gros éditeur de périodiques illustrés en France” Samuel-Sigismond Schwarz est éditeur de feuilletons frivoles voire grivois (Fanfan la Tulipe, etc) et d’éditions reliées dans le goût d’alors des œuvres de Hugo mais, conscient que l’attrait de cette formule économique s’étiole, il envisage de troquer rapidement le feuilleton pour le périodique illustré, opération d’autant plus propice qu’elle intervient dans une France violemment agitée par l’affaire Dreyfus. C’est au cours de l’Exposition Universelle de Paris de 1900 qu’il croise le chemin d’Albert Langen, l'éditeur allemand et fondateur du quotidien satirique Simplicissimus publié depuis 1896. Aussitôt attiré par le ton, il se met en tête de créer un journal hebdomadaire illustré en couleur qui, comme il l’écrit à Anatole France, “parlera sous une forme très mordante, très cinglante, des problèmes de la vie sociale actuelle”. Le 4 avril 1901 sort donc L’Assiette au Beurre, journal complétant un portefeuille de titres déjà riche du Pompon, du Tutu et du Frou-Frou. Dès la couverture, le premier numéro donne le ton pour ce qui restera un titre phare de la satire française : l’assiette au beurre se partage peu car, comme Steinlen le fait dire aux grévistes acculés “et le citoyen-ministre, il n’envoie rien ? Si, 3000 hommes de troupe”. Si le journal n’a jamais été complètement interdit à la vente, certaines de ses caricatures jugées trop sensibles, notamment sur le plan diplomatique, ont pu parfois faire l’objet d’une censure efficace, comme ce fut le cas pour la dernière planche du numéro du 28 septembre 1901 consacré aux camps de concentration du Transvaal figurant l’Impudique Albion dévoilant un postérieur grimant Édouard VII. Rapidement la planche de Jean Veber est rééditée et le visage du monarque moqué recouvert d’un linge. Dans les albums que nous présentons, chaque numéro est issu du tirage original et toutes les planches telles que voulues par leurs auteurs. À noter également la présence du numéro spécial Crimes et Châtiments intégralement illustré par Vallotton donc chaque lithographie est détachable grâce au système de pointillés perforés. Parmi les collaborateurs du journal, signalons Félix Vallotton, Charles Léandre, Alfred Le Petit, Jacques Villon, Caran d’Ache, Carlègle, Hermann-Paul, Chas Laborde, Jules Chéret, Géo-Dupuis, Kees van Dongen, Kupka, Carlègle, Pierre Falké, Jean Émile Laboureur, Juan Gris, Démétrios Galanis, Nadar, Raymond Renefer, Albert Robida, Steinlen, Jean Villemot, Gabriele Galantara, ou encore Louis Marcoussis. Ici sont rassemblés 4 albums compilant les quatre premières années du titre, depuis le n°1 du 4 avril 1901 au n°195 du 24 décembre 1904.

1928Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Contemporary quarter leather bdg. Handsomely bound. Six raised bands to spine, the second compartment has the title, the fifth has "issue 1-104", and the sixth has ex-owner's name of the volume, "Semseddin" lettered gilt. Original end-papers of the period. Slightly age-toned on the lower pages, fading on extremities of boards, overall a very good volume. Folio. (41 x 29 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters) and Turkish with Latin letters. This folio volume consists of 104 issues of the periodical, each issue has 4 pages, which has mostly color illustrated covers as well as several b/w ones. A rare togetherness of the first 104 issues of this Turkish satirical magazine, richly illustrated with thousands of attractive illustrations and caricatures, was published in Istanbul twice a week every Wednesday and Saturday with at least four, at most eight pages, during the Letter Revolution 1928, when the transition from the Arabic alphabet to new Latin letters was ensured. The collection provides an invaluable resource, reflecting the changes in society during and after the Letter Revolution in New Turkey, 1928, placing the new Latin alphabet instead of old Arabic letters and contributing to the development of reading and writing skills of the new Turkish society, as well as "creating the basis for the rapid social evolution in the young Turkish Republic Revolution" soon after the proclamation of the Republic in 1923. The newspaper had a printing house with the same name headquartered in Bab-i Ali (The Sublime Porte of Constantinople), the place where the heart of the Ottoman press was. Burhan Cahid Morkaya left Karagöz Newspaper and founded Köroglu Newspaper in 1928 and wanted the people living in Istanbul and Anatolia to be able to read and write new letters. Indeed, during the period of its publication, Köroglu Newspaper reached the most remote corners of the New Turkish Republic with its attractive cartoons covering local and mostly international subjects. In addition to this news and cartoons, Morkaya also published Turkish reading passages with Arabic letters that were transcripted into Latin letters. Therefore, he created a great positive effect that facilitated the transition to new letters during the Turkish Alphabet Revolution. Duman 1155.

1940réf. 89451940. 1 vols. One full red calf corporate ledger titled "Yachting Incorporated"; one green cloth stock ledger with the remains of a Yachting label on the upper cover; two green cloth books of stock certificates each labeled "Yachting Incorporated Preferred Stock" and one such book labeled "Yachting Incorporated Common Stock"; a similar book of stock certificates of Kennedy Brothers Incorporated; two appointment books with tide tables for 1937 and 1938; and a brown expanding legal-size folder of documents. 1 vols. John C. Kennedy was successively treasurer then president of Yachting Inc. publishers of Yachting Magazine and retained this archive after the magazine changed hands in the late 1930s. Included in this material are the corporate records of the Kelmo Corporation into which Yachting Inc. was merged in 1924 it later separated and was re-merged in 1940 records of the Yachting Board of Directors' meetings primarily concerning financing and including the meeting agreeing to sell all the capital stock to Kennedy; the actual books of issued and unissued common and preferred stock certificates of Yachting Inc. a book of shares of common stock of Kennedy Brothers Incorporated transferring Yachting stock to the Kennedys; the original 1923 signed option agreement by which Yachting's owners transferred for $40000 the total outstanding stock common and preferred and the actual stock certificates themselves and the original agreement of Oswald Garrison Villard conferring for $15000 his title and interest in the magazine--name records and other assets; Yachting's corporate income tax returns for 1927 and 1933 and some later tax and real estate correspondence; a lengthy Price Waterhouse report concerning the history and financial condition of Yachting as of January 1924 and a less encouraging special balance sheet and P&L for 1933; a 1933 recapitulation of book sales; and balance sheets and stock certificates of related companies. Also included are two 4 x 7" black leatherette books "Tide Tables and Daily Log" for l937 and 1938 in which John C. Kennedy has recorded his daily activities from July 7 l937 thru December 31 1938. Of particular interest are the efforts made in the fall of 1937 to interest Roy E. Larsen of Time Inc. in the purchase of Yachting Magazine by Time--a proposition which Larsen declined. The entries for 1938 deal mostly with Kennedy's growing financial worries and the decline of his sister's and his own health: it comes as a shock to learn that the author of these almost unbearably poignant entries was only 50 years old. On June 28 Kennedy reports the transfer "which took away my last of Yachting after 15 yrs." In addition the archive contains the original certification of the familiar "Yachting" logo as a U.S. trade-mark registered June 3 1924; the original certificate registering the same in Canada dated January 20 1925; the unsigned carbon of a 1935 deposition by John C. Kennedy with accompanying schedule showing Yachting Inc.'s stock portfolio at the time of its sale in 1933 at a loss of $144000; the magazine's copy of a signed agreement to publish "The Model Yacht" by John O. Berg; a corrected draft of a document changing the corporate name of Yachting Inc. to Kelmo Corporation dated October 26 1939; 5 insurance policies with photostats of applications on the life of John C. Kennedy; his U.S. passport issued 1924; his autograph 2-pp enumeration of property to be divided among the heirs of his mother along with photographs and correspondence concerning her grave; and other papers including his agreement to lease from Jules S. Bache his 112-ft. diesel yacht "Colmena" for July and August 1931 for $13500--a unique souvenir of happier days. Altogether an archive of engrossing interest for the business and sporting historian alike. unknown

1935réf. 21249961935. Vienna: Victoria-Druckerei. September/October 1935-June 1937. Twenty issues of twenty-four bound in two volumes. Original wrappers printed in dark brown bound together in contemporary half navy cloth with marbled sides blue endpapers; small tear to upper joint of vol. II neatly repaired; browning to wrappers of a few 1936 issues light toning throughout; else very well preserved; December 1935 issue with 5-Groschen stamp and postmark to title address labels of Professor E.M. Klarmann to several issues see below.Twenty issues of this very rare Viennese magazine for Jewish youth printed on the eve of the Anschluss and featuring contributions by the likes of Stefan Zweig Chaim Bloch and Chaim Nachman Bialik.The magazine was issued by the Judisch-Kultureller Elternbund Jewish-Cultural Parents' Association established in 1934 as part of an initiative on the part of Jewish teachers to support Jewish schoolchildren in Vienna in religious and cultural matters. The association established a youth library organised events and holiday celebrations gave lectures and arranged excursions. Judische Jugend provides an extraordinary glimpse of Jewish life in Vienna immediately before the Anschluss. It includes inter alia book recommendations a chess column profiling famous Jewish chess players a 'photo corner' featuring reader submissions and a column with photographs and political reports from Palestine jokes and crosswords in Hebrew a crafts section with instructions for making wallet bindings portable watercolour sets and Purim masks and articles on the history of the Jews of Split Rembrandt's Jewish subjects Tomas Masaryk Ludwig Zamenhof creator of Esperanto and author of the first Yiddish grammar a life of Richard Beer-Hoffmann written on the occasion of his seventieth birthday a Jewish institute for the blind and much more. The inaugural issue September/October 1935 opens with a preface by David Feuchtwang chief Rabbi of Vienna who died the following year.There are also contributions by student readers including Elfriede Pick then aged sixteen; due to Nazi intervention she would later be expelled from the University of Vienna after a single term studying mathematics and physics. The October 1936 issue features Stefan Zweig's Die Legende der dritten Taube The Legend of the Third Dove an allegorical anti-war story written during the First World War inspired by the story of Noah's Ark: here a third dove is sent out from the ark to find dry land but instead of returning to the ark finds a peaceful spot and chooses to stay there. It is reproduced here with the permission of Dr Martha Hofmann who had included the short story in her 1925/26 Judischer Almanach auf das Jahr 5686 a literary annual featuring contributions by the likes of Werfel and Schnitzler with illustrations by Floch Chagall and others. Also included is an extract from Chaim Bloch's 1925 tale of the Golem of Prague Der Prager Golem here published as Golem-Geschichten as well as the poem 'Nach meinem Tode' by Israel's national poet Chaim Nachman Bialik from the 1922 collection Ausgewahlte Gedichte translated into German by Ernst Muller.The magazine came under fire by the Stadtschulrat fur Wien the city's educational authorities. Synagogue and school services were 'jointly organised by the Jewish Community of Vienna and the Stadtschulrat as with Christian denominations. What the Austrian school authorities demanded in these years was patriotism. In 1936 the Stadtschulrat refused permission to use the magazine Judische Jugend published by the Zionist Judisch-kultureller Elternbund in religious instruction' Spevak p. 604 trans. The October 1936 issue features a brusque letter from Privy Councillor and State School Inspector Oskar Freund complaining that the preceding issue had advertised a lecture he was to give at the inauguration of Vienna's Jewish Commercial school noting that he had 'expressly declined the invitation of the founder of the school . citing its incompatibility with his official position' p. 7 trans.These two bound volumes contain issues up to June 1937; the magazine seemingly ran until December 1937 a mere three months before the Anschluss. Although there is - likely deliberately - little explicit mention of mounting antisemitism in Austria the March 1937 issue advertises the Victoria-Druckerei's newly published work 'Nicht nur die Juden geht es an' It's Not Just about the Jews a collection of articles by the Austrian-Jewish journalist and correspondent for the British Jewish Chronicle Bruno Heilig arguing that the Nazi persecution of the Jews would affect society as a whole.Provenance: Several issues bear the printed address label or manuscript ownership inscription of Prof. Dr E.M. Klarmann of Gebhardtgasse 1/14 in Vienna. Klarmann was the official distributor and likely also the producer of Haivri a weekly instructive magazine in Hebrew featuring glossaries in four languages Die Stimme 17 January 1936. We have been able to find little other information about Klarmann but he would have lived in the same building as the philologist Walter Otto who had used his flat as a collection point for donations for the financial support of Else Lasker-Schuler c. 1913. There is one article on the Jews of Poland by a Dr Moscheh Elijahu Klarmann October 1936 who may be a relative of the Dr E.M. Klarmann who owned these copies or they may be one and the same.Outside continental Europe we find copies of any issue at the National Library of Israel Wiener Holocaust Library and Leo Baeck Institute only the latter seemingly in microform.

THE UNIVERSAL MAGAZINE FOR THE FIRST HALF OF 1790; which with the stated first printing of the address to George Washington and his address to the Citizens of Alexandria also contains "Letters Debates Essays Tales Poetry History Biography Antiquities Voyages Travels Astronomy Geography Mathematics Mechanics Architecture Philosophy Medicine Chemistry Husbandry Gardening and other Arts and Sciences." At 10:00am on the morning of April 16 1789 General George Washington left Mount Vernon for the journey north to New York where he would be inaugurated as the first President of the new United States. His first stop was in Alexandria with his former aide-de-camp Col. David Humphries and the Secretary of Congress Charles Thomson. At noon he arrived in Alexandria where he took an early dinner at Wise's Tavern with citizens of the town. The address by the Mayor celebrating Washington's service to and love of country was followed by Washington's own address concerning his considerations for his having accepted the honour to be bestowed upon him in New York. Washington had wanted to retire from public life but agreed to continue to serve the new nation upon the call of its citizenry. Both addresses are moving tributes one to the man one to the new nation and its people. Humble in origin brilliant in effect they are. In the later afternoon hours General Washington was escorted by admirers up the Potomac to Georgetown where he was greeted by a large contingent of the citizenry of that town who escorted him up the Post Road towards Baltimore where he spent the night at Spurrier's Tavern. George Washington's Address: To THE MAYOR CORPORATION AND CITIZENS OF ALEXANDRIA Alexandria April 16 1789. "Gentlemen: Although I ought not to conceal yet I cannot describe the painful emotions which I felt in being called upon to determine whether I would accept or refuse the Presidency of the United States. The unanimity of the choice the opinion of my friends communicated from different parts of Europe as well as of America the apparent wish of those who were not altogether satisfied with the Constitution in its present form and an ardent desire on my own part to be instrumental in conciliating the good will of my countrymen towards each other have induced an acceptance. Those who have known me best and you my fellow citizens are from your situation in that number know better than any others that my love of retirement is so great that no earthly consideration short of a conviction of duty could have prevailed upon me to depart from my resolution “ never more to take any share in transactions of a public nature .” For at my age and in my circumstances what possible advantages could I propose to myself from embarking again on the tempestuous and uncertain ocean of public-life I do not feel myself under the necessity of making public declarations in order to convince you Gentlemen of my attachment to yourselves and regard for your interests. The whole tenor of my life has been open to your inspection; and my past actions rather than my present declarations must be the pledge of my future conduct. In the mean time I thank you most sincerely for the expressions of kindness contained in your valedictory address. It is true just after having bade adieu to my domestic connexions this tender proof of your friendship is but too well calculated still farther to awaken my sensibility and encrease my regret at parting from the enjoyments of private life. All that now remains for me is to commit myself and you to the protection of that beneficent Being who on a former occasion has happly brought us together after a long and distressing separation. Perhaps the same gracious Providence will again indulge us with the same heartfelt felicity. But words my fellow-citizens fail me: Unutterable sensations must then be left to more expressive silence: while from an aching heart I bid you all my affectionate friends and kind neighbours farewell! " This volume also contains a series of Picturesque Scenes from Homer's Iliad with handsome engravings; Memoirs of the life and writings of the celebrated physician Dr. William Harvey; and a virtually countless array of stories and reports of "all things instructive and entertaining."
