Raised gilt spine also with inlaid decorations, all edges gilt. Bindings signed at lower end of spine '' A. Ségouin, Paris''. A stunning binding in a near perfect state of preservation. This edition by Léon Curmer (1801-1870) is one of the highlights of French bookillustration in the 19th century before the advance of modern reproduction techniques such as photo engraving and zincography. Curmer had gained success with e.g. the publication in 1838 of '' Paul et Virginie '' illustrated by Meissonier. In his '' Evangiles'' he collected specimen of western medieaval book illustration from all the important manuscripts still extant in France, Italy, Great Britain... He rendered them in chromolithography. In the third volume of this work he extensively explains the origine of the illustrations used in volume I and II. The third volume contains also original photographs of 16th century copper engravings. A very fine copy of an extraordinary and beautifully produced book which will never be surpassed for the quality of its chromolithographies. It is in a way the culmination of the ever growing interest during the 19th century in the art of mediaeval illustrated manuscripts, which started at the beginning of the century and gave us e.g. in 1833 Henry Shaw's Illuminated Ornaments. price: €5450.00 |

Bruxelles, Association libre des compositeurs typographes ou Association Typographique, 1877 ->, tête de collection de la revue '' Le Typographe '' reliée en un volume demi-toile d'époque. Format in-folio, 34 x 26,5 cm, un numéro se compose de 4 pp. Le premier numéro date du 1 Aout 1877. DISPONIBLE : Année (1) Numéro (1) ( 1 Aout 1877) - Année (12) Numéro (5) ( Décembre 1888). Relié en un volume. (déchirure horizontale dans le premier numéro sans perte de papier). On ajoute : (I) La Fédération Typographique Belge, organe (mensuel) officiel. Relié en un volume demi-toile d'époque. Année (8) Numéro (1) (1 Janvier 1896) - Année (13)(Numéro 12) (1 Décembre 1901) (donc 5 années complètes).

Dans l'histoire sociale les typographes avaient un rôle d'avant-garde venant sans doute du fait qu'ils étaient parmi les mieux qualifiés de tous les ouvriers et qu'ils avaient un accès facile à l'imprimé pour répandre leurs idées. La revue '' Le Typographe'' était la première qui réussit à prolonger sa vie d'une longue période: avant on n'avait qu'une publication de circonstance : ''Grève des Typographes'' et deux autres essais de courte durée : '' Le Gutenberg'' et la ''Presse Ouvrière''.

Printed on laid-paper with watermark ( 'three spheres, diameter ca. 7 mm, touching each other and topped by a right-angled triangle with a height of ca. 10 mm). See Willems 20 ; Berghman 2002. We could until now not ascertain whether this is an original imprint of the 7th and last catalogue of the Elsevier press. The Berghman catalogue (note to no. 2002) estimates that only 4 or 5 copies are known. There exists however an early 19th century numbered reprint (100 copies by F. Didot in Paris). Our copy bears however no trace of being a reprint, nor has it a number. It looks as if it has been used as a proof copy and bears the manuscript ink marks of a professional corrector: e.g. pp A3 Bassecourt, Sermons de Pieté =/Piété ; Baxter..pecheurs =/pécheurs ; pp A4 Calvifii =/Calvisii... According to the previous owner, in the 19th century the catalogue belonged to a French collector named De Viry from the neighbourhood of Rodez. price: €2400.00 |

With a signed manuscript note stating that this imprint was collated against the original on November 13, 1680 by (Sigliaveli ?). Extremely rare official papal printed order to put a publication on the Index of forbidden books. The work was a publication by Amadeo Guimenio : '' Adversus quorumdam expostulationes contra nonnullas Jesuitarum opiniones morales''. Amadeo Guimenio (real name Mateo de Moya) (Toledo 1626 - Madrid 1684) was a jesuit theologian. In his publication he maintained that many of the controversial religious ideas advocated by the Jesuits could in fact be traced back to theologians who had lived long before the Jesuit order existed. Already in 1665 the Sorbonne had censored this book. A huge controversy continued until this document finally prohibited the text in 1680.

— The Anglican Missal being the order for the administration of the Holy Communion according to the use of the Church of England together with the Collects to be used throughout the Year. Oxford, printed and published by A.R. Mowbray at his office in Saint Aldate's Street, 1869, in-4°, 29,5 x 25 cm, 32 unpaginated leaves, printed in Gothic type, all with a double red typographical fillet border. Bound in full bleached vellum , richly decorated with gilt and thick red fillets which surround a large losenge with gilt initials in the centre (LSU ?). The central losenge is surrounded by small losenges filled with stylized gilt lilies, all edges gilt, pastedown and flyleaves in cream coloured watery silk, smooth spine with decorated gilt lilies within a thick red fillet. This is a unique illuminated copy. 33 pages (out of 64) have been illuminated by a professional hand in the mediaeval style: 3 full page hand painted miniatures (of which the Cannon plate); 4 nearly full-page initials; 5 manuscript titles with initials; 21 pages with large full page ornamental borders. Some miniatures are heightened with gold (sometimes with oxidation). The high quality of the illumination , the fact that not all pages have been illuminated, the lack of pagination numbers might lead us to the supposition that this copy was in fact a design example which had to serve for a printed chromolithography edition, possibly in another size. We could not verify if A.R. Mowbry ever entertained such a project. If not it remains an interesting question who the artist was and to what purpose this book was made. price: €3000.00 |

C.De Mey ; Blessures, ills. A.E.Marty, (1946, 15 pp). Scarce and remarkably complete set (only 1 plate, No.161 is missing). This publication gives a detailed survey of the evolution of high quality printing and reproduction techniquesin Europe during the first half of the 20th century. This is illustrated with an abundance of plates in various printing techniques. Another interesting feature is the fact that many illustrations are by famous belgian artists active in the graphic field. Many illustrations are original lithographs, woodcuts or engravings by artists such as C.Montald, L.Titz , Tytgat, Kurt Peiser, Romeo Dumoulin, Dirk Baksteen, Donnet, Cassiers, Pellens, Rassenfosse ( 11 original lithographs), and many others. Due to the long and complex publication history , and because of the fact that some plates (all issued loose) are artworks in their own right, complete sets like on offer here are very rare. The set is in god order, some unobtrusive library stamps on only a few issues, the first two issues of the bulletin slightly foxed, some original wrappers slightly frayed. The main aim of this publication which covers the first half of the 20th century was to illustrate the advance of reproduction techniques and the high quality of printing which prevailed in Brussels, an important typographical centre. It was backed by the main Brussels printing houses and was related to the prestigious Royal Belgian Library (Bibliothèque Royale de Belgique). price: €3750.00 |

Bound in contemporary half roan with marbled boards, smooth spine with black leather title label. Very fine copy. Account in Dutch of the tricentennial of the invention of printing. The author credits Laurenszoon Koster, a native of Haarlem, with this invention. In early 18th-century even in Holland there were doubts as to the claim of Koster.
