Queens' Binder A. The Precedency of Ye Peerage of England, & others, [drop-title], 1660s, 41pp. manuscript, written in a neat copperplate hand, accompanied by numerous blank leaves, several dates between 1660 and 1667, signed in pencil by Howard M. Nixon on preliminary blank and inscribed by him 'Presented to me by the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association at their Annual Dinner 8th May 1875', additional early ownership annotations in ink 'Gosford' and 'of Rodd' (on verso of front free endpaper and recto of facing blank respectively), marbled free endpapers, all edges gilt, original red morocco by Queens' Binder A (probably William Nott), slightly rubbed, gilt decorated raised bands, compartments with onlaid circles of black and citron morocco (that to final compartment lacking), with gilt tooled volutes and dotted-line tulips on a sem‚ dot ground, covers with border of gilt triple fillets between dotted-line rolls, and with all-over linear design onlaid with black and citron morocco, tooled in gilt with volutes and large dots, engraved silver clasps, gilt decorated edges and turn-ins, black morocco doublures, elaborately gilt tooled with drawer handles, dotted-line volutes, and dots, highlighted in silver, 12mo (135 x 80cm/5.25 x 3.25ins), housed in a custom-made quarter morocco bookform solander box, spine with raised bands and gilt lettering, velvet-lined interior with oval red morocco label lettered in gilt 'H.M.N. from A.B.A 8th May 1975', and with loosely inserted paper slip inscribed in pencil in Howard Nixon's hand 'Presented to me at the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association Dinner, 8th May 1975' Provenance: Maggs Bros, Bookbinding in Great Britain, Catalogue 966, Summer 1975, no.50; Howard Millar Nixon (1909-1983), Head of Rare Book Collections at the British Library, Librarian at Westminster Abbey, and leading historian of bookbinding in Britain. It is most unusual to find an English binding of this date with morocco doublures; it is also uncommon to find such a binding on a commonplace book. As well as a listing of the nobility, there are notes pertaining to fees due to peers, grants and privileges, the order of dignatories at festivals, lists of Knights of the Garter and foreign princes, and a description of two paintings of Henry VII (including one in the Privy Gallery at Whitehall). It seems probable from Howard Nixon's research that Queens' Binder A is William Nott. Nott was an important figure in the book trade, as a bookseller, stationer and publisher, as well as binder. Samuel Pepys called him "the famous bookbinder" and visited his workshop in 1668: "I did take occasion for curiosity to bespeak a book to be bound, only that I might have one of his binding". (cf. Howard Nixon, Five Centruies of English Bookbinding, 1979) (1)

Queens' Binder A. The Ladies Calling in Two Parts. By the Author of the Whole Duty of Man, &c. [Allestree, Richard], 3rd Impression, Oxford, 1675, engraved frontispiece, printer's device to title, some minor staining and toning, armorial bookplate with the initials A.E. and rear free endpaper with small diamond-shaped ink stamp to verso, all edges gilt, contemporary black morocco, by Queen's Binder A, extremities lightly rubbed, lower joint with discreet repairs at head and foot, upper joint slightly cracked, spine with gilt decorated raised bands, compartments include central eight-petalled flower tool, covers with gilt border containing elaborate gilt design of drawer-handles, eight-petalled flowers, and dotted-line four-petalled flower tools, with other small tools, gilt roll on edges and turn-ins, 8vo in 4s A pencilled note, by A.E., attributes attributes the binding to Queen's Binder. The four-petalled flower tool springing from a pair of leaves has the elongated top petal characteristic of Queen's Binder A, and the all-over drawer handle design is typical of octavo volumes from this workshop. The binding is noticeably similar to binding 61 in Nixon's English Restoration Bindings, attributed to Queen's Binder A, which uses the same border roll on the covers and has only minor variations in the design. It seems probable from Howard Nixon's research that Queen's Binder A is William Nott, one of the leading craftsmen of the second half of the seventeenth century and described by Samuel Pepys as "the famous bookbinder". Provenance: from the library of Howard M. Nixon. The bookplate indicates that previously the book was part of the Broxbourne Library, a renowned collection of books, manuscripts, and incunabula built by Albert Ehrman. This library became one of the most important private collections of books in this country, much of it now held by the British Library, the Bodleian Library and other national bodies. Ehrman was a diamond merchant, and the recognition of where his money came from can be seen in the numerous diamond shapes incorporated into his bookplate - which is itself diamond-shaped. (1)

FOOTBALL GAMES Two boxed games: Blow Football by ISL complete with rules likely to be early 1960's and Penalty! A Pepys Card Game, complete with rules, likely to be from 1970's

A pair of multi-reeded broad rim pewter plates, 10inch diameter, (rim ratio 36.7%) by Jaques Taudin III of St Martin in the Fields, London, circa 1680, clear marks struck on the rear rim of both plates, (Ref. PS9219/OP 4651) (2)Notes: Jaques Taudin struck his mark with the worship Company in 1680 |(ref LTP 344) and worked until 1693. In 1680 he inherited his uncles business who was famous for supplying fine quality pewter to King Charles II and Samuel Pepys.In his diary from 1668, Samuel Pepys mentions buying pewter on three occasions: 23rd January 1668 “… and laying out much money on new pewter” 13th March 1668 “Thence I to Mrs Turner, and did get her to go along with me to the French pewterer's and there did buy some new pewter against tomorrow” 14th March 1668 “… and thence to the pewterer's to buy a new fashioned sesterne,” Whilst the pewterer is not mentioned by name it is most likely to have been the Huguenot Jacques Taudin I, (PS9218), who struck his touch in 1645 and died in 1680. He had frequent disputes with the Worshipful Company of Pewterers who took exception to him as a foreigner who was trespassing on their domain and set out to sue him. In 1656/57 he asked Oliver Cromwell to intervene; in 1668 he asked King Charles II to do the same; on both occasions he was successful. The Worshipful Company were probably annoyed because he had introduced a superior alloy of tin and antimony. In 1666 he took on his nephew, Jaques Taudin II, (PS9219), as an apprentice, who would have been working in his uncles' workshop when Pepys bought his pewter, to whom he left his business when he died in 1680. Unfortunately Pepys stopped writing his diaries from 1669, mainly due to his failing eyesight; consequently there is no record of him buying pewter during the years 1669 until he died 1703. However it is reasonable to assume that James Taudin II, having been an apprentice in 1668, when Pepys was buying from his “French Pewterer”, would have continued to supply pewter wares to Pepys following the death of his uncle.Taudin was an important exporter of “hardmetal” pewter abroad, particularly to Scandinavia. The term sonant in his touchmark, implies that the ware would ring when struck, bears witness to his French origins and to the supposed hardness of the pewter.

A Caughley chocolate cup and saucer painted with the Salopian Sprig pattern, circa 1785-92, S mark, the cup 10.2cm diameter, saucer 15.4cm diameterProvenance: Wright Collection no.279, purchased in 1982 from a Staffordshire Fair. Literature: Ironbridge 1999 no.199. This is an uncommon pattern for this shape.Hot chocolate saw a huge explosion in popularity in 18th century England. The city of London had little tradition of hot drinks (coffee having only arrived five years prior) and chocolate at this stage was associated with the idleness of the Spanish and French, therefore a market had to be created. The city was bombarded with a slew of leaflets detailing the beneficial properties of chocolate and left contemporary sources such as Samuel Pepys quoting its beneficial properties for relieving a hangover by alleviating his 'sad head' and 'imbecilic stomach'.Such was that by the end of the 17th century, and well into the 18th century, chocolate houses began to appear in England, coming to serve as popular meeting places for lawyers, businessmen and politicos alike. In London the principal chocolate houses were Ozinda's and White's, both on St James's Street, and the Cocoa Tree on Pall Mall. 'Hell', the inner gaming room at White's, is depicted in the sixth episode of Hogarth's Rake's Progress in all its debauched glory (fittingly, it is also on fire, though few customers seem to notice or care). At the Cocoa Tree, the modern equivalent of £180,000 was placed on the roll of a single die. Whilst this may appear to us purely nihilistic, in context this highlights an important part of projection within an inherently status-dominated Georgian society; the nobility of which would otherwise be living a somewhat idle existence and to whom chocolate drinking was a highly important part. For those on the outside such as Hogarth however, this was an easy group of the population to heap scorn upon.Contrarily, within the the private domain chocolate was considered more a feature of the bedroom. A painting by Jean-Baptiste Le Prince dated 1769 depicts a woman laying in bed, her outstretched hand reaching for a departed lover with a chocolate pot and cup by her bedside. Of course, the historic claim inherited from the Aztecs that chocolate was an aphrodisiac is also responsible for this coupling of chocolate and the bedroom.Such images of leisure only added to an overall romanticism and the idea that chocolate was a luxurious treat. Indeed, in 1797 hot chocolate was described as a 'drink of the Gods' - that is, even if those 'Gods' were as debaucherous as the patrons of the London chocolate houses proved themselves to be.
