[SCOTTISH MANUSCRIPT ILLUSTRATED DIARIES]. MILLER (William)*, 2 fine yearly diaries for 1899 & 1900, 8vo, each vol. with approx. 200 leaves, with one or two pages for each day of the year, and with each page with one or more hand-col'd (either crayon or watercolour) ink drawings. The illustrations link to the ink diary notes of each day, or represent flights of fancy, and are expertly rendered, providing a well observed and frequently humorous insight into the daily life of GLASGOW and environs., as seen through the eyes of a Glaswegian entrepreneur, as well as providing an intimate review of goings-on in the Miller household & the domestic life of the day. Street scenes, local characters, national life (elections, the Boer War), family holidays, interiors (of bars, railway stations, etc.) are shown in detail, as well as activities (sports, golf, cricket, football, angling, bicycling, etc.). Additionally, a wry humour permeates the diaries giving rise to surrealist and bizarre pictorial images. In all, the finest such diaries that we have seen, providing a wonderful glimpse of daily life in GLASGOW of the dawn of the 20th century. Each volume is bound in stiff brown morocco, dated in gilt, with gilt initials "W.M." and the volume numbers, i.e. 1 & 2. *William Miller, entrepreneur & soap manufacturer, resident at 9 Spring Gardens, Mary Hill, married with two sons.
