1855ref. 53792Philadelphia: Bicking & Guilbert 1855. First edition. Softcover. Very good. Octavo. 43 1 blankpp; 2 maps 1 folding. Contemporary blue title wrappers lightly chipped at extremities lettered in black. Stain limited to top margin throughout latter half else a very good copy text clean and crisp. First edition of this rare Brief of Title. The Gratz family of merchants and community leaders in Philadelphia was founded by Barnard Gratz 1738-1801. As a young man he emigrated from Germany to London where he was briefly employed as a clerk. Shortly after relocating to Philadelphia in 1754 he went into business as a merchant in the coastal and West Indian trade and formed around 1760 a lasting partnership with his brother Michael who was involved in the Indian and fur trade as well as land speculation. The two brothers helped found the first synagogue in Philadelphia. Two of Michael's sons Simon Gratz 1773-1839 and his brother Hyman 1776-1857 carried on the family business. Apart from his ongoing involvement with the Jewish Congregation Mikveh Israel "Simon was among the founders of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts" Morais and "a director of the Pennsylvania Botanical Garden" Rosenbloom. Includes a three-page extract from the will of Simon Gratz dated February 16 1839 with his instructions for the disposition of the 71 acres of his estate contained in "the four tracts of land mentioned at the beginning of this Brief." As noted in the present brief p. 28 The Farmers and Mechanics Land and Building Association received its Charter of Encorporation on March 17 1852 acquiring by purchase the Willington Estate from Louisa Gratz Edward Gratz David Gratz and Elizabeth Gratz on April 16 1852. Provenance: The business card of Henry Tunison Jr. "Real Estate Agent and Collector of House and Ground Rents. S. E. Corner 18th & Spruce Streets Philadelphia" has been mounted at the bottom of the front wrapper; Mr. Tunison's manuscript entry appears at the top. A rare item not indexed in OCLC which does however locate two copies of an 1871 edition at Hebrew Union College and the University of Michigan; Singerman is also only aware of the 1871 printing noting copies at the American Jewish Historical Society and the Library Company of Philadelphia.

1770ref. 272311770. Paintings. Otherwise very good condition. Seven expertly painted watercolors of Eastern Russian folk people in traditional dress. These are most likely painted for or copied from one of Pallas' books "Reise durch verschiedene Provinzen des Russischen Reichs" 1771-76 later published in English "Journey Through Southern Provinces of the Russian Empire". They all bear penciled numbers in the lower right possibly correlating with plates in a Pallas work. Three paintings have manuscript captions in ink: 'Kosak Woman of Tsherkash' 'Tirgishian Tartar' 'A Kalmak of the lower class.' All are numbered in pencil in lower right corner: 1 3 18 56 65 67 68 . The image "Kosak Woman" caption is followed by an ink name "Pallas". The other 4 watercolors have no captions and subjects include a Woman with a cape Man with floor length fur lined coat and hat Man with long beard golden helmet and fur lined coat; and a Woman carrying a basket on her back and under her arm. Four paintings are 8 x 10" other 3 are 7 x 9" painted on thick paper with two ink border lines some thin and some thick. The image of the Tirgishian Tartar has four small holes in the corners. All have been removed from an album. Peter Simon Pallas 1741 - 1811 German naturalist who advanced a theory of mountain formation and by the age of 15 had outlined new classifications of certain animal groups. In 1761 he went to England to study natural-history collections and to make geological observations. He was appointed professor of natural history at the Imperial Academy of Sciences St. Petersburg in 1768. About the same time he joined a scientific expedition to Russia and Siberia. For the next six years he traveled across the length and breadth of the vast empire. He found a wide distribution of mammoth and rhinoceros fossils including some with their hairy hides preserved in the Siberian ice. He returned to St. Petersburg in 1774 with a great amount of data and many fossil specimens but he had ruined his health. He published his major findings from the expedition in three volumes Reise durch verschiedene Provinzen des russischen Reichs 1771-76 later published in English "Journey Through Various Provinces of the Russian Empire". His chief geological contribution based largely on his study of the Ural and Altai mountain ranges of Siberia was the recognition of a temporal sequence of rocks from the center to the flanks of a range. unknown

1598ref. 001041London: Thomas Creede 1598. First English language edition. . Hardcover. See Description. Small folio. Lacking preliminary blank leaf thus pp. 10 310 292 4. Page numbering is erratic. Leaf Ee3 is mis-signed as F3 but all leaves are present and in order. The title page contains a woodcut vignette/device. Each chapter begins with a woodcut decorative head piece and an initial. Bound in full dark brown modern calf with blind tooled borders and stamps after an early period style. The upper part of the title page is age-toned / tanned; a professionally sealed 7 cm. tear runs from the gutter part way across the upper portion of the title and is difficult to detect on first sight; a couple of tiny chips on the top edge are restored. Interior pages are generally attractive but with occasional mild age-toning and periodic faint marginal damp staining. A small repair patch is present on the inner margins of leaves A6 and V6. A tear on leaf V6 also carefully sealed extends vertically about 8.5 cm from the lower gutter and part way into the text but causing almost no obscuration. Printed by Thomas Creede who is best known for issuing dramatic works including some of Shakespeares plays. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a translation of "Recueil des choses mémorables avenues en France sous le règne de Henri II François II Charles IX Henri III et Henri IV." This work is generally attributed to either Simon Goulart or Jean de Serres and was first printed in French no place or publisher in 1595 and again in 1598 expanded to include the reign of Henri IV up to the year 1597. See Brunet IV 1161-1162. The second part with new pagination provides translated selections from Pierre Matthieus 4 part "Histoire des derniers troubles de France" first published in Lyons 1594-95. A section at the end is titled "a brief recitall of the most memorable things which came to passé in Fraunce under the raigne of Henry the fourth until the middle of the Yeare 1598" which if written by Matthieu may possibly represent the first printing of some amendments which Matthieu later added to the second edition of his "Histoire" printed in 1600. This collection provides interesting testaments to the wars of religion in France during the 16th century. A separate 4 page tract at the end is titled: "A true discourse concerning the deliverie of Brittaine in the yeare 1598." ESTC S121331; USTC 513796; Lowndes p. 831; Hazlitt Biblio.
