MSS - Bemrose, William - Recollections of Egypt And Palestine: Derby, Bemrose and Son, 1882, Elephant folio (420 x 400mm) Elegantly and lavishly bound by Bemrose and Son in full and heavy light brown morocco gilt, with 5 raised bands to spine and 6 compartments decorated in gilt design with gilt titles. The upper board has a deep inset inside a wide border, the inset being filled with a padded Indian silk emroidered cushion in coral pink and green, enhanced with gold thread. The margins being decorated in repetitive stylised leaves. Inner dentelles gilt, patterned end papers, all edges gilt. The title page is elegant and handwritten. In 1882 William Bemrose was joined by John Mason Cook, (1834-1899), Cook being the elder son of Thomas Cook the founder of Thomas Cook and Son travel company. Together, on October 20th 1882 they embarked on a trip to Egypt and Palastine. This manuscript book being Bemrose's original copperplate handwritten record of the trip. The trip being a ground breaking one which would provide valuable information for new and future intineries to be included in Cook's now famous tours. The trip takes the pair from London through to Pisa, Rome, Tivoli, Brindisi, Alexandria, Cairo, Tel El Kebir, Tomalia, Port Said, Jaffa, Jerusalem, Bethany, Jericho, Masala and Bethlehem. A highlight of the trip was to be seen on 23rd October when they were to witness the tail of the 1882 Great September Comet as it slowly passed through the night skies, also the pair were to visit Mount Vesuvius and to see it whilst still active and describe the experience. Both of these events are well documented in the text and supported with a number of sketches. The manuscript is interspersed with many fine sketches in pencil, vibrant watercolours, and rare large format albumen prints, to include architecture, ethnic peoples, natives, craftsmen, cultural items and also pressed flowers. On his return Bemrose was to deliver lectures assisted by slide shows of the images included in the book, these were a complete success and so popular with standing room only being available at the venues.
