Egypt.- Hieroglyphs.- Champollion (Jean Francois) Grammaire Égyptienne, first edition, lithograph hieroglyphs throughout, some printed in red, original printed wrappers, lower cover with paper restoration to inside, spine slightly toned, extremities a little chipped, folio, Paris, Firmin Didot Fréres, 1836[-1841].⁂ This monumental work of Champollion (1790-1832), known above all as the decipherer of the Rosetta stone, is the grand summation of his work in cracking Egyptian hieroglyphs and laid the foundations for all subsequent discoveries in Egyptology. It contains the first printed list of hieroglyphs; 260 in all. The printing, from Champollion's meticulous manuscript, was a complex process. It required a special combination of all the standard alphabetic languages (French, Latin, Greek, Coptic, etc.) to be set in the usual way in type, leaving blank spaces for the hieroglyphs. The typesetting was then transferred to lithographic plates where the hieroglyphs were engraved and then each page, including type and hieroglyphs, was reprinted lithographically. This was the first time such a technique was used in France. Rare in the original printed wrappers; RBH lists no other copy at auction.
Persia.- Goldsmid (Frederick John) Eastern Persia: An Account of the Journeys of the Persian Boundary Commission 1870-71-72, 2 vol., first edition, half-titles, 4 folding colour maps, one wood-engraved plate, one chromolithograph and 28 lithograph plates, 18 hand-coloured, new endpapers, original cloth, corner of upper cover vol.2 bumped, else fine, [Ghani p.153], 8vo, 1876.⁂ An excellent copy of this major work which Ghani considers "one of the most important books on the region". Volume 1 The Geography with Narratives covers the separate journeys of Majors St. John, Lovett and Euan Smith; volume 2 The Zoology and Geology of Eastern Persia by W.T. Blandford, which includes hand-coloured plates of birds and mammals by J.G. Keulemans and plates of reptiles by G.H. Ford, is considered a definitive work on the subject.
