Brothers, Manchester, c. 1865-70, a portfolio containing three fine albumen prints of the moon by L.M. Rutherfurd enlarged by A. Brothers (so blind-stamped to photograph lower margins), each 13.5 x 10.5 ins (345 x 268mm) and mounted on card, showing the full moon, about half, illuminated on its left, and about half, illuminated on its right, the other contents of the portfolio being five printed maps and illustrations of the moon, ‘General-Karte der sichtbaren Seite der Mondoberflaeche ...’ based on Beer and Mädler, by J. H. Mädler, Berlin, 1837; ‘Chart of The Moon on the Stereographic Projection’, plate XVIII, by R. A. Proctor; ‘Map of the Moon, from the Mappa Selenographica of Beer and Maedler’, plate XVII, by T.W. Webb; ‘Bullialdus and the surrounding region. By Schmidt, of Athens’; ‘Lunar Landscapes - “Full” Earth’ and ‘Lunar Landscapes - “New” Earth’, plates XXI and XXII, white on black, views of earth as from the moon, both illustrations on one sheet, various sizes, all loosely contained as issued in orig. red cloth portfolio, gilt-titled upper cover, dampstained and worn, slim folio. Lewis Morris Rutherfurd, an American astronomer and pioneering astrophotographer, was regarded by his English colleague and admirer Richard Proctor as ‘the greatest lunar photographer of the age’. For these large photographs which surpassed any photographs of the moon up to that time and for twenty years or so afterwards, Rutherfurd used a new 11.5-inch objective lens. Museum of the History of Science, Oxford, item 12962, has identical contents to this portfolio except that their copy includes a duplicate of the last-named print. (1).
