1934ref. ABE-1729624696870The Wine and Food Society 1934. London: The Wine and Food Society 1934 - 1962. Eighteen octavo volumes uniformly bound in maroon buckram with leather title and volume spine labels comprising a complete run of the first 116 issues of this landmark quarterly devoted to all things gastronomical. Andre Simon was in the words of Hugh Johnson "the charismatic leader of the English wine trade for almost all of the first half of the 20th century and the grand old man of literate connoisseurship for a further 20 years" though his oblique writing style is said to have prompted the more analytical point-based wine review system later developed by Robert Parker. Each volume features essays on cooking fine dining and wine with period ads throughout. The wraps for each volume are bound in with staining to the front wrap of a few volumes; chipping to the spine labels of a few volumes with light rubbing and discoloration to cloth but a handsomely bound run of this important periodical. 1st Edition.

1911ref. 8431This is a rare collection of two lectures delivered by Andre Simon at Vintners' Hall in London in the early 1900's. Simon was a French-born wine merchant gourmet and prolific writer about wine. In 1908 he created 'The Wine Trade Club' with friends organizing tastings and technical lectures that foreshadowed the 'Institute of Masters of Wine' 45 years later. This collection constitutes two of six of Simon's lectures that were published. The lectures were published either separately "for distribution to the staff of provincial wine-merchants" or as a monthly supplement to issues of "Ridley's Wine and Spirit Trade Circular." The lectures published separately came in two versions - a "plain" version with paper wraps or - as offered here - a deluxe "presentation" version bound in green calf leather with gilt covers. Each lecture is a first edition published by Wyman & Sons in London. The following two lectures are included: "The Wine Trade of England: Past and Present." A Lecture Delivered at Vintners' Hall by The Wine Trade Club. 20th November 1911. "The Vineyards of the World." A Lecture Delivered at Vintners' Hall by The Wine Trade Club. 19th January 1912. Condition: Light soiling to the covers. Light wear to the top edge of both spines. Both books are firmly bound with no cracks and no loose pages. All covers are firmly attached. Both books have consistent foxing to the pages. There is a wine-themed vintage bookplate affixed to each front pastedown." Overall in Very Good- condition. Wyman & Sons
