[1751].- XI, [1], 16, 388, [2] p.: 1 retrato; 20 cm.- E., First edition of one of the most important texts of the Pombaline reform of education in Portugal. Luís António Verney (1713-1792), son of French parents, but born in Lisbon, maximum exponent of the Enlightenment in Portugal and one of the most famous Portuguese "foreigners", studied at Santo Antão College in Lisbon and at the Congregation of the Oratory, before getting a degree in Theology at the University of Évora. Ownership manuscript of the time, on the title page: Coll: Anglor: Ulyssip: — Preston. Small marginal cut in the last 10 sheets. Otherwise, in a very clean copy with large margins, preserving the rare portrait of the author with the subscription Nolly Pinx-Sc. (Ernesto Soares, História, 1368). Remarkable binding of the period, in “vieux rouge” shagreen, slightly worn and with a slightly dehydrated spine; covers with elaborate loose tooling lace (dentelle), with the coat of arms of Portugal, gold-engraved in the reserve of the central finial; the endpapers are preserved in marbled paper, probably from the 19th century.

Jose., anno de 1829.- [2[, VIII, 502, [1 br.], 46, [2] p.; 19 cm.- E., Rare edition printed in Macao, authored, according to Couling (Encyclopaedia Sinica, p. 208), by one of the most eminent sinologists of the 19th century, who devoted himself passionately, for 30 years of his life, to the study of the Chinese language. A member of the Royal Asiatic Society and the Lisbon Academy of Sciences, he was highly regarded within the Chinese intellectual community itself. The edition, the second work to be produced at the Saint Joseph Seminary, includes much of the text in Sinic characters. Untouched copy, with the title page signed and restored. Half leather binding, recent, with gold closed panels on the spine. Inocêncio, IV, p. 57. Samodães, 1433. Macanese Bibliography, 5269. Jack M. Braga (Primórdios, Appendix III), 19.
SKETCHES of Portuguese life, manners, costume, and character / by A. P. D. G.- London: Geo. B. Whittaker, 1826.- XXV, [3], 364 p.: il.; 23 cm.- E., Rare title in the foreign bibliography on Portugal, whose author, who signs only with his initials, remains to this day unidentified. It is known only that he served in the army in Lisbon and accompanied the royal family in their retreat to Brazil. The 20 aquatints (plus an engraving with musical notation of a modinha), hand-coloured, that illustrate the edition, mainly represent customs and scenes of daily life in Lisbon and Rio de Janeiro and present a caricatural and satirical feature. Complete copy, according to the “directions to the binder”, including the front cover sheet (often missing), untrimmed, slightly handled, with some browning and occasional light stains; the colour of the prints caused some offset on the opposite page. Good binding, full red shagreen, from the 19th/20th century, with Greek meander border on the covers, smooth spine decorated in gold, simple rolls on the squares and thickness of the folders. Keeps the original endpapoers on marbled paper. Duarte de Sousa, 3. Tooley, 453. Foulché-Delbosc, 255.
ALPOIM, José Fernandes Pinto.- Exame de bombeiros, que comprehende dez tratados; o primeiro da Geometria, o segundo de huma nova Trigonometria, o terceiro da Longemetria[...] Obra nova, e ainda nam escrita de author Portuguez, utilissima para se ensinarem os novos Soldados Bombeiros, por perguntas e respostas...- En Madrid: En la Officina de Francisco Martinezabad, Año de M. DCC. XXXXVIII. [1748].- [40], 444 [i. é 442] p., 1 tabela desdobr.: 1 retrato, XVIII [i. é 20] gravuras desdobr.; 20 cm.- E., José Fernandes Alpoim (1700-1765) was born in Viana do Castelo and in 1738 he traveled to Brazil where he became famous as an architect and military engineer, having reached the rank of brigadier. In Rio de Janeiro he taught in artillery and fortification courses for which he wrote two treatises: “Exame de Artilheiros” (Lisbon, 1744) and the present “Exame de Bombeiros”. The edition is illustrated with a portrait of Gomes Freire de Andrade (1685-1763), governor of Rio, to whom the work is dedicated, engraved by Olivarius Cor (Ernesto Soares, História, p. 180 and nº 500), an allegorical vignette at the beginning of the dedication and 20 engravings (19 leaflets), numbered from I to XVIII (from engravings II and XI there are two different proofs) by José Francisco Chaves (Ernesto Soares, História, p. 171). Particularly enigmatic is Figure XVII that presents the subscription: José Franc. Chaves fecit — Rio 1749. This last indication has led some historians and bibliographers to support the hypothesis that the engraving (and even the edition) may have been opened in Rio de Janeiro, a controversial claim that remains unproven to this day. The pagination has an error: da p. 372 moves to p. 375, without any gaps in the text or in the section. Copy a little trimmed, but clean, keeping all engravings fresh and well folded. Contemporary binding, full sheepskin, slightly worn, with traces of wormholes (without affecting the core), retaining the original endpapers, red label and four raised bands on the spine. Inocêncio, IV, p. 326. Borba de Moraes (1983), p. 25/26 (These two famous and rare works by Alpoym constitute a veritable “bibliographic puzzle”). Army Library, 324.

Höchst selten! Bronzefarbene Medaille der XX. Olympiade München 1972, bei dem hier angebotenen Exemplar dürfte es sich entweder um ein höchst seltenes Probemuster/Probeprägung handeln, welches eigentlich entwertet und anschließend eingeschmolzen werden sollte, oder aber um einen Abschlag als Makulatur. Für das Entwerten sprechen die Einkerbungen am Rand und die Überprägungen von Kastor und Pollux auf beiden Seiten. Es ist nicht mehr nachzuvollziehen, wie dieses Exemplar nach außen kam, da im Regelfall die zu vernichtenden Medaillen zum Einschmelzen übergeben wurden. Auch ist nicht bekannt, wie viele solcher Exemplare überhaupt in unsere Zeit gekommen sind. Das Gewicht beträgt ca. 132 g. Die Dicke ist unterschiedlich stark von ca. 4,5 mm bis ca. 2,5 mm. Der Durchmesser beträgt ca. 74 mm. Dadurch entspricht dieses Exemplar weder in Gewicht, Dicke noch Durchmesser der originalen Siegermedaille. Auf der Vorderseite die traditionelle Siegesgöttin, die in der linken Hand eine Palme und in der rechten Hand eine Siegerkrone hält. Die Rückseite zeigt zwei nackte junge Männer, Kastor und Pollux, die Zwillingssöhne von Zeus und Leda. Geprägt wurden die Medaillen im Bayerischen Hauptmünzamt. In einem Brief, der in Kopie diesem Lot beiliegt, wird das Exemplar als "Original-Fehlprägung" mit "sehr großem Sammlerwert" bezeichnet. Als Beigabe wird zusammen mit der Medaille ein Metallguss angeboten, ein Athlet mit Lorbeerzweig in Siegerpose, H ca. 27 cm. Alters- und Gebrauchsspuren| Extremely rare! Bronze colored medal of the XX. Munich Olympics 1972, the example offered here is probably either an extremely rare test sample/test coining, which was actually canceled and then melted down, or a strike as waste. The indentations on the edge and the embossing of Castor and Pollux on both sides speak for cancellation. It is no longer possible to understand how this specimen got out, since the medals to be destroyed were usually handed over to be melted down. It is also not known how many such specimens have come down to our time. The weight is about 132 g. The thickness varies from approx. 4.5 mm to approx. 2.5 mm. The diameter is approx. 74 mm. As a result, this specimen does not correspond to the original winner's medal in terms of weight, thickness or diameter. On the obverse the traditional goddess of victory, holding a palm tree in her left hand and a crown of victory in her right hand. The reverse shows two naked young men, Kastor and Pollux, the twin sons of Zeus and Leda. The medals were minted in the Bavarian Mint. In a letter, a copy of which accompanies this lot, the specimen is described as an "original misprint" with "very great collector's value". A metal cast is offered as an accompaniment together with the medal, an athlete with a laurel branch in a victory pose, height approx. 27 cm. Signs of age and use
