Pictorial green linen publisher's cloth, gilt illustration front cover of tiger attacking elephant and hunter, gilt lettering front cover & spine (very slight bumping to couple corners, minor shelfwear, slight foxing to fore-edges),…w/ d.j. dark gray-green paper, illust. repeated on front cover in blue, blue lettering, VG/NF copy, w/ "Association for Promoting Christian Knowledge" prize bookplate on front pastedown to F.H. Giltrap of Mountjoy School in 1914. Second edition of this informative memoir drawn from personal interviews, experiences, and notebooks of big game hunter and late Inspector General of Police, Bombay, Digby Davies, as well as the author's own sporting experiences. At the time, he had been specifically requested to eliminate all personal names and references in the incidents with Davies, whom Gouldsbury would specifically mention in the follow-up "Tiger Slayer by Order" (1915). Gouldsbury writes of numerous encounters with tigers in his own adventures, hunting from elephant back and machans, as well as leopards, and maruading elephants, with additional references to bison, ibex, and others. Davies relates his time serving during the Sepoy Mutiny, work as a sporting inspector, and specifically hunting down tigers, elephants, and others endangering villagers, and livestock. One chapter specifically mentions hunting a 419 lb. tiger stretching over 10 feet, 7 inches from nose to end of tail, and standing 3 1/2 feet which had terrorized villagers killing cattle across Bengal. Very rare in original dustjacket.

Añadir al carritoFive original stereoview photographs. Three sized 6 x 3 in. mounted on 7 x 3.5 in. beige-coloured tan studio boards, Kilburn w/ imprints below, size of images & verso, 2 only w/ ink MS annotations; two 6 x 3 in. silver gelatin mounted on gray studio boards, printed imprint & caption, scalloped upper fore-edges (minor dustsoiling…, shelfwear), still a VG group, from the library of Prof. Marvin Nathan. Five original and scarce stereoview photographs of the Lewis & Clark Centennial Exposition & Oriental Fair, which marked the anniversary of the famed exploration over the Louisiana Purchase. These stereoviews illustrate the Sunken Gardens, the U.S. Government Building, the Agricultural and Foreign Palaces, interiors, and the iconic Forestry Building. Benjamin Kilburn (1827-1909). and his brother Edward (b. 1830) initially operated their business together until Edward retired in the 1870's, and by 1872 they had a large photographic stereoview card factory one block from the Littleton trains station. Young salesmen carried the stereoviews on the trains, and by the early 20th-Century the company was the most extensive producer of stereoview photographs, purchasing images from such photographers as William H. Rau, the Kiser Bros., and others. Wasson (fl. 1899-1939) originally founded the International Stereograph Co. in 1899 in Decator, IL, and produced a wide range of images, often in the West, maintaining studios in Idaho, Arizona, and Oregon as well.

Añadir al carritoFolio. xi, [1], 207, [1] pp. Engraved frontisp., extra-illustrated engraved title, 5 engraved plates (1 colour woodcut plate for tiles), another engraved plate of Fresnel lenses integral to pagination, with 500 woodcut-engraved text illustrations, decorations. Elaborately decorated & gilt embossed cobalt-blue publisher's cloth,…decorative gilt lettering front & back covers, a.e.g. (rebacked w/ upper portion of original spine laid-back down, corners renewed, resewn, flyleaves expertly silked, wear to lower fore-edges, minor stain to a few leaves in rear of textblock upper fore-edge), still a VG- copy. First edition, possible first state (including the colour plate & extra-illustrated title & frontispiece which are not present in some printings), of this lavishly illustrated catalogue of America's first exposition, inspired and patterned after the 1851 Crystal Palace Great Exhibition in London. Mixed in with the familiar Arts & Crafts material which filled the early expositions, including industrially produced glassware, metalwork, ceramics, and more, the 1853-54 Exposition served as a vital presentation of American invention and technology, including Royal Earl House's innovative printing telegraph with its piano-style keyboard, a Henry Fitz refractor telescope, John Whipple's daguerreotypes shot of the Moon at Harvard College, and even a publicity stunt featuring Elias Otis demonstrating his safety elevator by dramatically cutting the rope holding the cage preventing is descent when they deployed. The 1853-54 Exhibition was also vital to the development of iron construction in America, including the striking octagonally planned domed structure by Castensen and Gildermeister, as well as plans submitted by Paxton, Downing & Vaux, Bogardus, and Hoppin, all illustrated here. After the fair closed in November, 1854, the New York Crystal Palace sporadically held tradefairs until 1858 when the iron and glass building burned to the ground in less than 30 minutes.

Green publisher's cloth, gilt lettering front cover & spine, simulated Zebra skin endpapers (minor bumping to corners, edgewear, slight spotting on the spine), still VG copy. First edition of this excell…ent early account of hunting on the Kenai Peninsula, including descriptions of Alaskan Native Americans, salmon cannery operations, and more. Radclyffe had acquired a permit from the Bureau of Biological Survey with the USDA in order to collect big game specimens for the British Museum, and the account was dedicated to a longtime fellow hunter and friend, Theodore Roosevelt. The author details his experiences with hunting Alaskan Brown Bears, Grizzly Bears, Moose, Dall Sheep, and running afoul of the zealous US Deputy Marshal Sexton, a stickler for the new game regulations instituted on the Kenai in 1903 (not to mention destroying the distilling operation of Alaskan hunter & miner Andrew Berg). He managed to survive a charging bear sow after being abandoned by his guide as well as the Alaskan courtroom, but his companions were not so lucky as the judge ruled that the permit did not extend to the hunting party. Radclyffe returned later to hunt Alaska on the Kenai in August, 1910 employing Andrew Berg as his head guide. See: Catherine Cassidy, Alaska's No. 1 Guide: The History and Journals of Andrew Berg, 1869-1939, pp. 28-29, 38.

Añadir al carritoEntering the City Engraving with aquatint and contemporary colour, closed tear to title and just into image. A nightime scene showing the Devonport Royal Mail coming in through Temple Bar in the Strand, heading to the Lombard Street Post Office. Temple Bar marks the boundary between the City of London and Westminster; the gate i…s topped by statues of King James I and his wife, Anne of Denmark, with the lion and unicorn supporters from the royal coat of arms. The guard at the back of the carriage is blowing a trumpet to warn passengers and the gatekeepers of their arrival, and has awakened a figure in nightcap and gown who peers from the window to the right. The passage of the coach is observed by a traveller with a carpet bag and a night watchman with a torch hanging from his belt, who would patrol the streets and call out the times. Charles B. Newhouse (1805-77) was an English artist working in London. John Bailey (fl.1811-34) was an engraver working in London; he engraved several views by Pollard. Image: 292 by 414mm (11.5 by 16.25 inches). Sheet: 356 by 450mm (14 by 17.75 inches).

Añadir al carritoFirst Edition. The Unique Copy with Henry Alken's Original Design for the Title-Page Together with Alken's Hand-Colored Etched Proof Documenting the Creation of One of the Great Sporting Pictorial Titles NEWHOUSE, C[harles] B. [&] ALKEN, Henry. The Roadsters' Album. London: Messrs. Fores, January 2, 1845. Second edition. Folio (…14 7/8 x 10 1/2 inches; 379 x 268 mm.). Hand-colored aquatint pictorial title-page by Henry Alken, sixteen magnificent hand-colored aquatints by C. B. Newhouse, and eight pages of publisher's advertisements. Each plate printed on fine artboard and captioned with Newhouse's name and the Fores imprint. Recently bound in an elegant period style in full dark green morocco, covers ruled in gilt with decorative corner-pieces surrounding a central blind-stamped panel, spine richly gilt in compartments, decorative gilt turn-ins, marbled endpapers. A handsome copy. An apparently unique copy, accompanied by Henry Alken's original signed pencil and watercolor drawing for the celebrated pictorial title-page, together with the original etched proof, hand-colored by Alken himself and inscribed on the verso: "To go with the original drawing / The Etched outline coloured by Alken Senr." Few opportunities exist to follow so completely the creative process of a major sporting artist. Here, the evolution of the title-page can be traced from Alken's original watercolor design, through the etched proof personally colored by the artist, to the finished published aquatint that introduces the book. Together they form a unique record of nineteenth-century sporting book illustration in its successive stages of conception, engraving, and publication. Originally published in 1836 under the title Incidents in Travelling, the work was reissued by the celebrated sporting print publishers Messrs. Fores in 1845 as The Roadsters' Album, distinguished by the addition of Alken's exuberant pictorial title-page. Charles B. Newhouse devoted almost his entire artistic career to coaching scenes, road travel, and sporting subjects, and nowhere is his talent more fully displayed than in this delightful series of sixteen aquatints depicting the hazards, mishaps, humor, and excitement of travel on the great coaching roads of England. The plates capture every aspect of coaching life: overturned vehicles, broken drags, forgotten passengers, overloaded mails, dangerous river crossings, snowstorms, sleepy gatekeepers, Gretna Green elopements, and desperate races against competing coaches. Each composition combines lively observation with remarkable technical assurance, preserving in vivid contemporary color the final flowering of the coaching age just before the railway transformed travel forever. Messrs. Fores occupied a pre-eminent position among nineteenth-century sporting publishers, specializing in the finest coaching, racing, hunting, and equestrian prints of the period. The addition of Henry Alken's elaborate title-page was entirely appropriate, for no artist was more closely associated with the golden age of British sporting illustration. Richly populated with coaches, horses, coachmen, guards, and travelers, the title-page serves as a visual overture to the entire work and ranks among the most attractive pictorial titles produced for any English sporting book. The accompanying original drawing elevates the present copy into an altogether different category. Original designs by Henry Alken prepared for published books are exceptionally uncommon; the survival of the corresponding etched proof, personally colored by the artist and explicitly identified as such, appears to be without parallel. Together they provide a rare insight into Alken's working methods and transform the volume into a unique archive of the artist's creative process. No other copy has been recorded containing Alken's original artwork and working proof, making the present example not merely the finest copy of the book known, but one of the most important survivals relating to Henry Alken's published work.
