réf. 101124The photograph is mounted behind an oval blood-red matt gilded on the bevelled edge visible image size 365 × 260 mm; these are surmounted by a second matt with an attractively scalloped inner edge. It is behind glass in an impressive vintage wooden frame - almost certainly of huon pine 80 mm wide - with a very ornate gilt fillet above the glass. The external dimensions are 680 × 555 mm; the visible surface of the glass is 490 × 360 mm. Opalotypes also called opaltypes and 'milk glass positives' are photographs printed on sheets of opaque translucent white glass. The process was patented in 1857 and although it survived until the 1920s this portrait from the later nineteenth century would have to be considered a very fine example of its type. It is also a credit to both the artistry of the photographer and the craftsmanship of the picture-framer neither of whom are identified. The item was purchased in Adelaide so it is highly likely the subject photographer and framer were local. unknown

Internally clean with contemporary pencil notations on front pastedowns. A very good sound set. $850. From the prestigious Bibliothek des Reichsgerichts the library of the Supreme Court of the German Reich in Leipzig with their small circular institutional stamps on each title page. A remarkably complete unbroken consecutive set of this key Australian legal serial which was issued over three decades and is frequently found only as scattered individual volumes. Beyond its scarcity this legal digest provides a front-row seat to the development of early Australian jurisprudence from late-colonial times through the Great Depression. It provides an unbroken record of Victoria's highly specialized Courts of Mines critical to understanding the legal architecture of the Australian goldfields-and the Court of Insolvency documenting early corporate architecture and financial collapses across three decades of economic volatility. Crucially the volumes map how these state-level rulings interacted with the newly minted High Court of Australia est. 1903 and the Privy Council in London making it a cornerstone resource for comparative common law research. This specific set carries extraordinary provenance having served as a reference resource for the highest court of the German Empire and Weimar Republi. unknown books
