Lugduni: apud Ioannem Baptistam Buysson, 1594. In-8° (mm 170x104). Pagine [16], 356, [18]. Marca tipografica xilografica al frontespizio, capilettera, testatine e finalini xilografici. Qualche lieve arrossatura. Legatura coeva in pergamena floscia, titoli manoscritti al dorso, tagli spruzzati in rosso. Al contropiatto anteriore etichetta ex libris di Luigi Balsamo, al contropiatto posteriore nota manoscritta relativa all'acquisto del volume datata 12.7.1996. Seconda tiratura (la prima reca la data 1593) dell'edizione definitiva. Questi i contenuti del libro: 1) Giudizio sul libro di Fr. de La Noue, Discours politiques et militaires (Bale, 1587), che l'Autore scrisse durante la lunga prigionia (1580-1585), dopo la cattura da parte dell'esercito spagnolo, e che tratta principalmente di guerre civili, dell'educazione della nobiltà, della tattica militare e della politica dei re cristiani; 2) Giudizio su tre opere di Bodin: Methodus historiae, Libri de republica, Demonomania; 3) Giudizio sul libro di Ph. De Mornay, Traité de la vérité de la religion chrétienne (Anversa, 1581); 4) Giudizio sugli scritti di Machiavelli e sullo scritto anonimo dal titolo Antimachiavellum (in realtà i Discours di I. Gentillet usciti a Ginevra nel 1576 portano ben chiara la loro paternità e furono poi chiamati sbrigativamente Antimachiavellum senza che mai questa parola apparisse in alcuna delle molte edizione latine. L'A. era calvinista); 5) Dal libro III del De Nobiltate christiana di Hier. Osorio il De Nicolao Machiavella; 6) Il testo integrale del libro di P. Coretus (Pierre Coret) Defensio veritatis (1591), contro La Noue; 7) Il giudizio del Possevino sulla Confessio Augustana; 8) Altro suo Trattatello al Re Stefano di Polonia sullo stesso argomento; 9) Giudizio del Possevino su Erasmo; 10) Esame della setta «picardica» fiorente in Boemia e Moravia, mista di luterani, calvinisti e anabattisti. L'opera era uscita a Roma nel 1592 e comprendeva solo i primi cinque scritti (fino a quello di Orosio incluso); gli altri cinque appaiono qui per la prima volta.

(1898-1932); originally in the collection of the famous James Reynolds Gregory (1858-1898"). This item is part of a historic collection of fossils and minerals which has recently been reviewed by leading geological expert Dr. Ronald Bonewitz. Cf. Bonewitz, Dr. Ronald Louis Smithsonian Rock and Gem, (2008), p.210.James Reynolds Gregory (1832-1899) was one of the principal London mineral and fossil dealers during the second half of the 19th century. The company he founded was one of the longest surviving geological suppliers in the world, second only to Kranz of Germany. In 1858 James Gregory established his business selling polished stones, minerals and fossils from premises in King William Street. A few years later he moved to premises in Golden Square, Soho. He won prize medals at exhibitions in Paris (1867), Sydney (1879) and London (1862 and 1883"). He also formed a superb collection of meteorites, which was later sold by his sons to the Natural History Museum, London. On the death of his father in 1899 Albert Gregory took over the business, dealing from premises in Kensington, then 30 Old Church Street in Chelsea. He eventually sold the company in 1932 to Percy Bottley, and after his death in 1982 the premises were sold. The company was then acquired by Brian Lloyd who had started the Natural History sales at Sotheby's before dealing from his own premises in Pall Mall. Gregory, Bottley & Lloyd, as it became known, traded from Ricket Street and later Seagrave Road in Fulham. In 2008 the business and all of the stock and Victorian cabinets were moved out of London to Walmer in Kent. On the eventual retirement of Brian and Mary Lloyd in 2014, with none of their family interested in taking over the business, the stock was sold and is now dispersed.

SOUTH-EAST COUNTIES LEAGUE TROPHY When the South East Counties League was disbanded in 1998, the then Secretary , Alan Leather offered the trophies back to the FA but was told that they did not want them and that he should keep them. We are now offering these trophies for sale on behalf of the family and this trophy is the South East Counties League Championship trophy with lid and plinth which has a silver band around it detailing all the winners from 1954/55 to 1997/98. The trophy was presented to the South East Counties League by Joseph Mears of Chelsea and it was appropriate that Chelsea were the first winners of it in 1954/55. It was played for by the Under 18 teams of Clubs in the South East and was won multiple times by Chelsea (they won it 8 times out of the first 9 years), Arsenal, Tottenham, QPR , Ipswich, West Ham and Norwich whilst it was won on single occasions by Charlton and Millwall. The trophy and lid are made of silver , made in Sheffield and hallmarked. The trophy is 12 inches high, the lid is approx 6 inches high and the plinth is four inches high. The whole item is approximately 22 inches high. Over the years the exuberance of youth has resulted in the odd very minor knock and the lid is slightly at odds with the top of the trophy but this is an excellent item and was fought for by many well known names from Jimmy Greaves with Chelsea down to Frank Lampard Junior at West Ham. It was awarded to the winning team of the South East Counties League Division 1 Championship. Good
