Historics Auctioneers

Lot 131

1958 BMW Isetta 600 Transmission: manualMileage:30825The BMW 600 is a four-seater microcar produced by the German automaker from mid-1957 until November 1959. Partially based on the BMW Isetta two-seater, it was BMW's first post-war, four-seater, economy car and it began the design process for its more successful successor, the BMW 700. BMW needed to expand its model range, but they did not have the resources to develop an all-new car with an all-new engine. Therefore, it used the Isetta as starting point for a new four seat economy car. As a result, the 600 used the front suspension and front door of the Isetta. The need to carry four people required a longer frame, a different rear suspension and a larger engine. The rear suspension was an independent semi trailing arm design; this was the first time BMW had used this system and the chassis had a wheelbase of just 1,700 millimetres. The 600 was powered by the 582cc flat-twin engine from the R67 motorcycle/sidecar combination. This engine, which delivered 19.5 horsepower was mounted behind the rear wheels. Access to the rear seats was by a conventional door on the right side of the vehicle and a four-speed manual gearbox was standard, while a Saxomat semi-automatic transmission was available and the 600 had a top speed of approximately 100 km/h if you were brave!Offered in original but importantly complete and running condition, this very rare Isetta 600 was imported from California and as such has an excellent chassis and body for a cosmetic restoration. Running and driving with a reconditioned 582cc engine, the 600 is a micro car that combines chic urban motoring with the ability to carry four passengers and retains the front opening door for the driver as per the smaller Isetta 300. This 600 is now UK registered and with examples in the UK incredibly sparse, we think this is an ideal opportunity to put your stamp on what is a desirable and collectable BMW which when completed would likely fetch double the pre-auction estimate.Interested parties should satisfy themselves as to the description and condition of each lot prior to the sale. Accordingly, buyers are on notice that each vehicle is offered ‘as is/as seen’ subject to the Terms and Conditions for the auction. Buyers are advised to inspect the vehicle in person or use a professional to carry out this service. Historics will not entertain disputes over descriptions.

Brunet III, 196: “Edition belle et correcte dutexte de Creech, avec des variants …”; Gordon A Bibliography of Lucretius502; PMM 87 (citing a Paris edition of 1563): “In [De rerum natura] theatomic theory, the most vivid and tender depictions of nature, and a sense ofthe beauty and rhythm of words which triumphs over the early unsophisticatedform of the Latin hexameter, all these combine in the most astonishing way toproduce one of the grandest and most moving poems in the Latin language.”

THOMAS AQUINAS (Saint, c. 1225-74). Summa theologiae.THOMAS AQUINAS (Saint, c. 1225-74). Summa theologiae. Pars secunda: secunda pars, edited by Ludovicus de Cremona. Mantua: Paulus de Butzbach, [not after 1474]. Folio (276 x 204mm). 53 lines, printed in double column, type 1:75G, 3- to 11-line initial spaces, some contemporary manuscript chapter numbers at upper margins, 386 leaves (of 396, without the 2 blanks and the final quire [see note], a single wormhole in quires 7-8, marginal wormhole in last 4 leaves, some very light mainly marginal staining). Full modern pigskin by Katherine Adams [for C. H. St John Hornby], with her monogram stamp dated 1905, spine lettered in gilt and with 5 raised bands, gilt and gauffered edges, preserving 4 original vellum flyleaves. Provenance: Johannes Groot, Canon of St Denis, Liège (contemporary inscription on first vellum flyleaf, neatly crossed out [i.e. preserving legibility]); given as a gift to Magister Bartholomaeus de Meerlair; Bois-le-Duc, Carthusians (inscription on front flyleaf); old illegible inscription at head of rear vellum flyleaf; Charles Harry St John Hornby (bookplate and Shelley House label). One of the earliest and rarest editions from the second Mantuan Press. This copy is lacking the final quire consisting of the table by the editor. Since this is often the case, it has been speculated that the quire was printed after some copies had been distributed without it. BMC VII, 930; not in Brunet; Goff T-213; HC 1458; Harvard/Walsh 3335A; IGI 9590; cf. PMM 30 (citing Basle edition of 1485): "The Summa is divided into three parts, the first of which treats of the nature, attributes and relations of God, including the physical universe; the subject of the second being man and the chief end of man, in which a definitive code of ethics is laid down; the third part, which was completed according to Aquinas's plan after his death, dealt with Christ, God and man. Even in this attenuated summary, the systematizing influence of Aristotle can be seen operating on 'all the learning of the Fathers', and it is this system which led Leo XIII in his Encyclical of 1879 to declare it the indisputable basis of Catholic theology; equally, it underlies much subsequent theological, political and social enquiry into the nature and position of man in the state or in the universe."
