Description
Troy: Obadiah Penniman, 1803. First American edition (stated). 1803 FIRST AMERICAN EDITION OF SWISS PHYSIOLOGIST'S LANDMARK TREATISE ON PHYSIOLOGY FROM 1747. 13x22 cm hardcover, full leather binding, gilt red leather label to spine, contemporary ink signature of W. Parlier and bookplate of Robert L Chevalier MD to front paste-down, binding tight, [i-iv], 498 pp, scattered light foxing, very good in custom archival mylar cover. ALBERT VON HALLER (1708 – 1777) was a Swiss anatomist, physiologist, naturalist, encyclopedist, bibliographer and poet. A pupil of Herman Boerhaave, he is often referred to as "the father of modern physiology." When still hardly fifteen he was already the author of numerous metrical translations from Ovid, Horace and Virgil. In 1752, at the University of Göttingen, Haller published his thesis (De partibus corporis humani sensibilibus et irritabilibus) discussing the distinction between "sensibility" and "irritability" in organs, suggesting that nerves were "sensible" because of a person's ability to perceive contact while muscles were "irritable" because the fiber could measurably shorten on its own, regardless of a person's perception, when excited by a foreign body. Later in 1757, he conducted a famous series of experiments to distinguish between nerve impulses and muscular contractions. Haller then visited London, Paris, Basel, and Bern. His scientific researches procured for him from George II in 1736 a call to the chair of medicine, anatomy, botany and surgery in the newly founded University of Göttingen. He became a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1743, a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1747, and was ennobled in 1749. Offered here is the first American edition of the Edinburgh English translation of GARRISON-MORTON No. 585 Primae lineae physiologiae in usum praelectionum academicarum, first published in Göttingen by A. Vandenhoeck, 1747.

New York: Currier & Ives, 33 Spruce Street, 1907. Ephemera no binding. Very good. [Nathaniel Currier]. Varnished wood frame 17 1/16" x 12 15/16"; print with margins 14 1/8" x 10", within the print border 12 x 8 3/8"; hand-colored lithograph; in frame as found; damp staining to margins, foxing to verso; print removed, glass cleaned, new archival backing and wood panel frame back replaced; very good. Conningham 1931. A small but charming and happy Currier & Ives hand-colored lithographic print of two children and their pets, a girl holding a cat and a boy with a dog. One of their lesser-known prints, it is attributed to Nathaniel Currier (1813-1888) with approximate print dates of 1896 through 1907. The dress of the children would suggest an earlier era, but the company's address at 33 Spruce Street in New York places the printing in these dates and after Currier's death. Frederic A. Conningham, in his exhaustive volume Currier & Ives Prints, An Illustrated Check List, lists no other printing dates or addresses.
