1915ref. 138323Istanbul: Erkan- Harbiye-i Umumiye Matbaas 1915. Grasping Gallipoli A rare example untraced institutionally of Ottoman military cartography conveying information on physical geography anchorages and the layout of key towns for the purposes of defensive planning. Compared to most Ottoman maps this offered the granular perspective necessary to mount an effective and ultimately successful operational defence of the peninsula and it was in all likelihood the most detailed map available to Otto Liman von Sanders and senior Ottoman commanders at the start of the campaign. Areas of the peninsula including the north-eastern and south-western fringes are shown with much gentler elevations and gradients than was actually the case. It is unclear whether copies fell into enemy hands but general misconceptions over the topography of the peninsula proved the undoing of much of the Allied advance during 1915. While most of the northern tip of the Ottoman empire is unfilled the map identifies features relevant to the ferrying of troops across the Dardanelles including coastal settlements rivers and landing sites. Colour lithograph 560 x 790 mm in 16 sections and mounted on linen as issued folding away to 42 x 200 mm. Contemporary colour crayon annotations on verso. Light foxing along folds a few sections slightly lifting at corners occasional staining: a very good example. unknown

1860ref. 24066Baltimore ca1860. Framed. Very good; some minor spotting to the periphary. Color pen & ink drawing meas. appx. 315 x 445 mm in the original contemporary frame; on glazed cotton. An unusual "cartoon" that features what appears to be Franklin Pierce astride a game-cock directing a spear pointed quill at a prostrate figure in the grasp of the animal. The election of 1852 was preceded by a contentious Democratic party convention in Baltimore - the origin of this cartoon when it surfaced at an estate sale in 1995. Until that time it had been folded and kept undisturbed. The result is its retention of the depth of the original color and very good condition. Although the attribution to the Pierce campaign cannot be certain it appears the most likely - especially with the game-cock. Pierce faced days of votes to secure his candidacy that was not by any means popular. Here he is shown subduing one of his opponents for the nomination. unknown books

First edition of richly illustrated biographies of more than 100 Dutch painters male and female still of interest for the history of Dutch art. The author Jacob Campo Weyerman 1677-1747 was one of the foremost Dutch authors of the Enlightenment and was known for his merry style. For this history of Dutch art he leans on Houbraken's De groote schouburgh der Neder-lantsche konstschilders en schilderessen 1718-1721.The first three parts were all published in 1729; the fourth - 40 years later - is mainly devoted to the painters from the Art Academy at The Hague. All 40 plates with artists' portraits the frontispiece 2 other portraits and the night scene are in the first 3 volumes the later volume 4 has no plates. The lavish vignettes throughout the volumes are worth mentioning as well mostly executed by Picart and apparently made for the present publication.The plates seem to be from a rare early state avant la lettre: all other copies we have seen have lettering on the plates but the present copy has the information written on the plates in ink. The title-page lettering seems to be very slightly moved compared to other copies but positions of the quire signatures all match. Perhaps this was a first impression or proof.From the library of Belgian artist/curator Philippe Jacques van Brée 1786-1871 with his owner's inscription on the front paste-down of each volume: "P.J. van Bréé".

ref. 2053Berkeley: University Relations 2008. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/Very good. An uncommon photo book that commemorates the launch of the Campaign for UC Berkeley in 2008 highlighting the campus in pictures and in words from renown alumni and others. This is Joan Didion's copy with a university notecard to her laid in from one "Mary Kay" likely someone in University Relations. It reads in full: "Dear Joan Greetings from Berkeley! We have found yet another way to use your inspirational words about Berkeley. The enclosed book include the summary of your essay in 'There Was Light'--the version you approved for the television spot--as well as another well-used quote of yours at the end of the book. Should you ever want to read your essay again there are many people who have asked about it and would love to hear you read it again--or for the first time. I continue to follow your work and life and admire your strength and optimism. I hope this note finds you filled with hope for the new year. With warmest regards Mary Kay." There Was Light: An Autobiography of a University: Berkeley 1868-1968 referenced in the note was published in 1970 and featured essays about the university from thirty-one notable alumni including Didion. She attended Berkeley from 1953-1956 and went on to become one of California's greatest chroniclers as literary journalist and essayist. See photos for the pages that hold Didion's words. A short quarto in denim blue cloth with the title stamped on the front board; dark blue endpapers and a transparent page guarding the half-title; 130 pages. A short introduction from Chancellor Robert J. Birgeneau on the photo-illustrated jacket's front flap. The jacket depicts the campus's famous Sather Tower The book is fine; the jacket is very good with rubbing to all edges and some faint dampstaining at the center of its spine mainly visible from the jacket's interior and with no discernible effect on the book itself. An incredible UC Berkeley association copy and keepsake; we dare say this would make a one-of-a-kind graduation gift. University Relations hardcover

1940ref. 1690571940-43. Fine photographs of North Africa and the Middle East A British airman's substantial archive comprising photographs autographs ephemera and medals. A skilled photographer Jack Leslie Lees 1912-1980 was a leading aircraftman at the RAF's Air Ministry Experimental Station AMES Number 235 a British radar unit employed in Wadi El Natrun Egypt and Tobruk Libya where they suffered German attack in 1942. His personal archives hold extensive records of his military service and activities on leave between 1940 and 1943. The photographs portray Lees and other soldiers during their free moments and in battle as well as everyday scenes at the base and outside. He photographed Aboukir Alexandria including the zoo Cairo and Mersa Matrouh the site of several battles. In 1941 he was in Tobruk where he photographed as always everyday scenes and interesting buildings and documented the siege; he was also in Derna and Benghazi. Lees was especially fond of Jerusalem where he visited and photographed the holy sites. The first album opens with a Certificate of Pilgrimage with a chip of rock from the Grotto from Lees's visit to the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem issued signed and stamped in Greek by Archimandrite Kyriakos; Lees also kept a memento with the leaf of a tree from the Garden of Gethsemane. The albums include fine views of Beirut's cityscape and other areas of Lebanon where he visited ruins and the Jezzine waterfalls as well as of Syria with several Roman sites and a coastal town perhaps Latakia or Tartus. The autographs and sketches in his pocket book were jotted down by British soldiers; one in Russian calls Lees "a comrade met in Tel-Aviv".
