He was a prolific chronicler of early Nova-Scotian history, particularly that of the French and Acadian populations. He was also known as one of Nova Scotia's most enthusiastic bibliophiles.

Añadir al carritoLater trade edition. A special copy of the 1957 trade edition bound by Sangorski and Sutcliffe in the deluxe full morocco binding of the original edition of 1939. Large quarto (10 1/2 x 8 1/4 inches; 268 x 210 mm). Printed in black, sanguine, purple, blue, red, and green inks on [56] double-folded leaves. Fourteen full-page and…numerous vignettes and border decorations printed in color. Text in English and Hebrew on facing pages (the illustrations are on the Hebrew pages). "The illustrations contained herein are reproductions of originals of Arthur Szyk of New-Canaan, Connecticut, U.S.A. Engraved by The Sun Engraving Co., England" (verso of title-page). Publisher's full blue morocco by Sangorski & Sutcliffe (stamp-signed in gilt on the front turn-in). Covers with gilt triple fillet border, front cover stamped in gilt with a large emblem of a high priest holding the matzoh and Passover wine, spine decoratively tooled and lettered in gilt in compartments, board edges with gilt dotted rule, turn-ins decoratively tooled in gilt, Szyk's illustration of Moses supporting the Ten Commandments printed monochromatically on cream paper and mounted as doublures. A very fine copy. "During many of his years of travel, Szyk had been working on a large project of illumination, The Haggadah. The work took on a special meaning in light of the then growing anti-Semitism in Europe. Passover is a festival of freedom, and The Haggadah tells the story of Jewish liberation from slavery in Egypt. In order to heighten the topical message and relate the historical events to contemporary ones, Szyk emblazoned the Egyptians with the Nazi swastika. However, fearing reprisals, publishers on the continent would not touch the book as long as it included this symbol Szyk removed the swastika, believing that the underlying message of the book was still clear and it was more important to see the project through to publication. "A deluxe volume in a limited edition of 250 copies was published in 1940 by the Beaconsfield Press in London. Bound in gold-stamped leather, with end pages printed on silk, the full color illuminations are printed on double-leaf parchment and an English translation is matched to the Hebrew text. While the pages of English are decorated with small, intricate, sepia-toned emblems, the emphasis in on the illuminated Hebrew pages and the brilliant colors and striking combinations which are jewel-like in affect. This book was amongst the most expensive new publications in 1940 the price in the USA was $525 and in the UK 100 Guineas (£105.00). "One contemporary reviewer ['The HaggadahA Sumptuous Illustrated Edition,' The Times Literary Supplement, 22 February 1941, p. 9] called it 'worthy to be placed among the most beautiful of books that the hand of man has produced'. The first copy of the printing was presented to George VI, King of England, to whom the book is dedicated" (Ungar, Justice Illuminated: The Art of Arthur Szyk, pp. 80-81).

Añadir al carritoCondición: Fine. First edition, later printing. Small quarto (6 7/8 x 5 1/4 inches; 174 x 133 mm.). 51, [1] pp. First edition, later printing (with "1905" on the verso of the title-page). "The year 1905 appears on the front of the title-page of the first printing. The early printings have plain mottled lavender end-papers, which… were shortly replaced by an end-paper design featuring a pie and a patty-pan. The cover picture was then changed from a cat in a small circle, to one of Ribby sitting by the fire, in a large circle" (Linder). Color frontispiece and nine color plates (included in pagination), twenty-one vignettes in black and white. Sumptuously bound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe ca. 1980 (stamp-signed in gilt on rear turn-in). Full dark brown crushed levant morocco. The front cover with a fine oval multi colored morocco image taken from the black and white illustration on page 11 of Duchess "And my pie was going to be veal and ham." The cover also decorated in gilt with tiny circles and a vertical stalk with leaves. The rear cover a fine oval multi colored morocco image taken from the color plate of 'Ribby' on page 50 "So there really was a patty-pan" similarly decorated in gilt as on the front cover. Smooth spine lettered in gilt with a small orange and green floral inlay at top. Gold and brown decorated end-papers, original front end-papers with a 'pie and patty-pan' design in pink and original brown front cover bound in at end with an onlaid picture of a cat in a small circle. Housed in a dark brown morocco edged, brown cloth slipcase with fleece-lining. Inspired by a summer spent at the Lakefield Cottages, the story follows the misadventures of a cat and dog at a tea party, when the latter thinks they have mistakenly eaten the serving plate (also called the patty-pan). While filled with anthropomorphic animal characters, scholars see the narrative as a commentary societal conventions, hierarchy, and etiquette. "Beatrix Potter, writer of some of the most beloved children's books of all time, was a woman of immense talent, indefatigable spirit, and a generous heart.Although she grew up in London, she was deeply influenced by long family holidays in the countryside, first in Scotland and later in the English lake district. As was the custom in families of her class, she was educated at home by governesses. An eager student of languages and literature, she grew up loving classic folk and fairy tales.Her talent for drawing and painting was discovered early and encouraged" (Beatrix Potter Society). Her career began with the release of the now-beloved Tale of Peter Rabbit; and her subsequent works expanded into a magical world of anthropomorphic animals such as Tom Kitten, Squirrel Nutkin, and Benjamin Bunny. In a superb 'double' pictorial inlaid binding by Sangorski & Sutcliffe, one of the leading bookbinders in London. The story of the Sangorski & Sutcliffe Bindery reads like something out of a novelwhen two of Douglas Cockrell's talented apprentices, Frances Sangorski and George Sutcliffe, were laid off during an economic downturn they began working out of an attic. Eventually their bindery would be famous for its intricate multicolored leather inlays and elaborate gold and jeweled bindings. Linder, p. 425. Quinby 9. V & A 1542. Fine.
