A Victorian mahogany open bookcase, with rear pediment, adjustable shelves and fitted with two drawers to the plinth base. Width 97.5 cm, height 165 cm. CONDITION REPORT: The top has a 13 cm diagonal split to the centre and to the left of this there is 6 cm of what looks like a stain drip. There are four small indents to the rear of the top and a further six indents to the front. There is a small section of veneer missing to the rear left side and rear left front of the top. A small section of veneer is missing to the rear right side of the top. The right hand side has a raised panel beneath the bookcase top of which there is a small splice of veneer missing at the rear. The left hand side has a 11 cm vertical age split and a 7 cm horizontal split. The moulding at the base of the left hand side has a full length split and the veneer has been replaced. The right hand side base moulding has small sections of veneer missing and a strip of veneer has been replaced. The front of the right hand side bracket foot has a 3 cm x 2.5 cm splice missing. There are small knocks to the moulding at the base of the bookcase, a 10 cm split to the right hand side of the moulding and a 6 cm split to the left hand side. There have been corbals to the top and bottom of each pilaster which are now missing and attachment holes have been filled and polished. This is most likely to have been a display cabinet at some time in its life as there are filled patches evident where a hinge may have sat. However given all these faults this is a clean piece of furniture ready for use.
Lot 1639
A 19th century Scottish mahogany longcase clock, with foliate carved pediment and circular dial, with two-train striking movement, keyhole type trunk door and raised on short turned legs. Height 222 cm. CONDITION REPORT: The pediment is in good order. The door closes correctly and is not warped. The hood is in generally good condition. The trunk door is not warped. There is small timber loss to the edge moulding above the lock escutcheon. To the left of the top of the door there is a bruise to the timber. The sides of the clock are in generally good order with only minor surface scratches and marks. The base panel has edge moulding missing to the top left and right and bottom left. There are minor stress fractures to the veneers and other small marks. The sides of the base are in similar condition. The left hand return moulding has a small section missing. All feet are present and original. The dial is as you can see from our image in reasonable condition but does have some paint loss particularly around the winding apertures and numerals 4 and 5. We have two weights. When weight is applied to the movement the seconds hand does operate. The same applies to the strike train. When weight is applied the clock strikes. Unfortunately we have no pendulum. The minute hand is missing its end pointer. The movement appears to be complete but is a little dirty.

Prima edizione stampata in Italia di uno dei più famosi e precoci trattati di ostetricia, il De Partu hominis del tedesco Eucharius Roesslin (c. 1470-1526), medico attivo nella città di Worms. L'opera vide originariamente la luce nel 1513 in lingua tedesca con il titolo di Rosengarten, ed è il primo trattato scritto a uso delle levatrici, che non erano certo in grado di leggere il latino. A maggiore comprensione del testo, furono incluse xilografie che mostrano le diverse posizioni del feto all'interno dell'utero, e che rappresentano le più antiche illustrazioni ostetriche nella storia del libro a stampa. Nel 1532 ne apparve a Francoforte la prima versione in lingua latina, con il titolo De partu hominis. La fortuna del testo latino fu immediata, come testimonia la stampa del Bindoni del 1536, e ne sono note nel Cinquecento traduzioni nelle principali lingue europee.L'edizione veneziana comprende una serie di 21 legni, mentre al frontespizio è illustrato con una vignetta xilografica divisa in due pannelli, illustranti una donna che ha appena partorito, e una levatrice che lava un neonato. L'esemplare è qui presentato in prima tiratura, priva dell'indicazione delle note di stampa al frontespizio, e impreziosito dall'ex libris del grande libraio e bibliofilo italiano Giuseppe Martini.

Late limp vellum, with running stitches. Ex libris of the renowned bookseller Giuseppe Martini on the front pastedown, the initials 'L.P.' on the title-page; a few marginal annotations The first Italian printing of one of the most famous and earliest obstetrical works: De Partu hominis by the German Eucharius Roesslin (c. 1470-1526), active as a physician in Worms. The work had been first published in 1513 in German, under the title Rosengarten, and was the first textbook published specifically for midwives. The text is supplemented with numerous woodcuts showing the different presentations of the foetus in utero, and which are the earliest obstetrical illustrations printed. The first edition in Latin appeared in Frankfurt in 1532. The success of the De partu hominis was immediate, as this Venetian publication of 1538 attests. The edition printed by Bindoni is presented here in the first issue, without imprint on the title-page. Alongside the 21 woodcuts illustrating the text, the Bindoni edition bears a fine vignette on the title-page, depicting a woman who has just given birth, and a midwive washing an infant in the lower panel.Durling 3899; Wellcome 5507.Sold with a valid export licence
