Description
Kempten: Per Rudolphum Dreherr, 1673. SOLE EDITION. Hardcover. Fine. Bound in contemporary stiff vellum (small repairs to foot of the spine, re-cased, endpapers renewed.) Internally, this copy is in fine condition with only minor faults as follows: half-title soiled, small wormholes in first four lvs., a peppering of small wormholes to final four index lvs. and final blank leaf. Marginal hole (not affecting text) to leaf B3, margins of portrait leaf foxed and with light stain at foot. The volume was re-cased, probably to remove a second, slim work (judging by the size of the overlapping vellum fore-edges of the binding.) Provenance: Engraved armorial bookplate of Augustin Erath (1648-1719), German Augustinian Canon, theologian, translator. The “Phonurgia” is illustrated with an added engraved allegorical title by Georg Andreas Wolfgang (1631-1716) after Felix Cheurier, an engraved title vignette, an engraved portrait of Emperor Leopold I by Wolfgang after Franz Herman, two engraved plates, seventeen engravings and numerous woodcut diagrams and illustrations in the text, musical notation, ornamental woodcut head- and tail-pieces, and decorative initials. Among the illustrations are Michele Todini's "claviorganum" (one of the most technologically advanced keyboards of Kircher's time), Kircher's own musical invention, the "Aeolian Harp", and the invention that inspired the book, Kircher's "Speaking Trumpet" (the megaphone), shown at the shrine of St. Eustace in Monterella. Various chambers with peculiar acoustical properties are also depicted, such as a Vitruvian amphitheater, the courtyard at the Villa Simonetta in Milan and the "ears" of the Tyrant Dionysius of Syracuse. There is also a depiction of one of Kircher's "talking statues", his 17th century intercom. "The 'Phonurgia Nova' is, in part, Kircher’s response to Sir Samuel Morland (1625-95), a fellow of the Royal Society of London, who claimed...to have invented the megaphone. Numerous testimonies from Kircher’s admirers, such as James Alban Gibbs and Gaspar Schott, are appended to the work defending Kircher’s claim as the inventor of the tuba stentorophonica, as Morland called it. Kircher had indeed written extensively on the device in his 'Musurgia' and had been using the ‘speaking trumpet’ for years at the shrine of Mentorella to call people to services... The 'Phonurgia' treats the science and applications of sound amplification and echoes. It was the first book published in Europe devoted entirely to acoustics." (Merrill). "The importance that the Jesuits placed on sensory experience as part of worship had a significant impact on Kircher's treatment of music. Within the devotional framework, music was valued precisely because of its capacity to move the passions, to produce strong emotional effects that under properly controlled conditions were designed to ravish the soul and lead the faithful closer to the divine. Indeed, Kircher declared that the goal of all music was to move the affections, and this belief goes a long way toward explaining his interest in classifying all the various emotional or affective states that music can imitate. Kircher's was the first systematic account of the 'doctrine of affections' which underpinned early opera and oratorio, and was one of the fundamental assumptions of later Baroque composers such as Bach and Handel."(Penelope Gouk, "Making Music, Making Knowledge: The Harmonious Universe of Athanasius Kircher").

Philadelphia and London: W.B. Saunders Co., 1923-1826. First edition. LANDMARK 9-VOLUME ENCYCLOPEDIA OF EARLY 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN PEDIATRICS EDITED BY EMINENT CHICAGO PEDIATRICIAN. Nine large hardcover volumes, 9 3/4 inches tall, green cloth bindings, gilt title to spines. Vol. !, i-xi, 1240 pp; Vol. II, i-ix, 1025 pp; Vol. III, i-ix, 1051 pp; Vol. IV, i-xii, 1271 pp; Vol. V, i-ix, 865 pp; Vol. VI, i-ix, 736 pp; Vol. VII, i-ix, 879 pp; Vol. VIII, i-viii, 1102 pp; General Index, [2], 249 pp. Some corners bumped, spots to covers, scattered marginal notations first few pages of Vol. I; bindings, text and plates otherwise unmarked. A scarce very good complete set of this landmark early 20th century compilation of American pediatrics. ISAAC ARTHUR ABT (1867 – 1955), began his practice in internal medicine but gravitated to pediatrics, with a particular interest in nutrition, and became one of the earliest specialists in the field. After a year at the University of Chicago preparatory school he entered the 3-year pre-medical program at Johns Hopkins University in the Fall of 1886. At Johns Hopkins Isaac was greatly influenced by the outstanding pathologist, William Henry Welch. In 1889 he entered the Chicago Medical College's two-year course. Abt took his internship at Michael Reese Hospital, 1891-1892. Then Abt took the usual "grand tour" of Europe for his postgraduate training, leaving in the fall of 1892 and returning in January 1894. From 1894 to 1897 he was assistant in pediatrics and instructor in physiology, histology, and physiology of the nervous system at the Chicago Medical College (Northwestern University Medical School). In 1909, Abt became Chairman of the Department of Pediatrics at Northwestern University. He remained at Northwestern until his retirement in 1939. His most important work in support of pediatric hospital facilities began in 1910 when Edward Morris, of the meat-packing family, called on him with a proposal for a children's hospital. This hospital, to be named after Edward's mother, Sarah, was to be the finest in Chicago. The Sarah Morris Hospital was acknowledged to be one of the finest in the country, comparable to the Harriet Lane Home at Johns Hopkins. Abt's comprehensive knowledge of the rapidly expanding literature of pediatrics was in good part the result of his service as Editor of the Year Book of Pediatrics from 1902 to 1940. He was one of the founders of the American Journal of the Diseases of Children. His major work, the 8-volume System of Pediatrics, was published in 1923-1926 (offered here). This became a classic in its field. With Edward Lasker he developed an electric breast pump that became highly successful. He was the first physician in Chicago to administer diphtheria antitoxin, and he was the first American pediatrician to use protein milk in the treatment of diarrhea. Abt pioneered in the early work on incubators for premature infants. Abt was an active and productive member of numerous organizations. He was Chairman of the American Medical Association's Section on Pediatrics in 1911, and served as the Section's representative in the House of Delegates from 1918 to 1935. In 1925 he presented an informative and detailed report before the House on the methods of sale and promotion of infant foods that has served as a standard ever since. He also was a member of a joint committee of the AMA and the National Education Association. He was Chairman of the Committee on Medical Care for Children at President Hoover's White House Conference in 1930. Abt had been made a Chevalier of the French Legion of Honor in 1927. Isaac Arthur Abt became one of the most prominent pediatricians in the United States and for many years enjoyed an international reputation as well. Volume 1 contains GARRISON-MORTON No. 6353. GARRISON, Fielding Hudson (1870 - 1935) History of pediatrics. In I. Abt, System of Pediatrics, 1, 1-170. Philadelphia, 1923.

Description
New York: Bard Bridge Bureau, 1935. Fine. A beautiful vintage, arguably antique, duplicate bridge set, with eight duplicate sleeves, each with their four hands already set up with cards inserted into their slots, these sleeves the type still in use except these, instead of an aluminum composition are made of bakelite and epitomize Art Deco design. N.d., circa 1930s. We know little at this time about George Bard, other than he was an active tournament player in the early days of modern bridge -- the 1920s, into the early 1940s, and he certainly had to have been a Grandmaster. We also know that the "Bard Bridge Bureau" was in business in the 1930s. We would infer that this business, besides selling duplicate kits such as the one here, had a mail order business of sending out duplicate hands, and almost certainly accompanying the hands would be commentary so that the players could learn from their play afterward. The kit was intended to be one that supplied all one needed to play duplicate, other than the tables and chairs. It came with eight sleeves, ours with the eight decks also already dealt, a 14 page booklet with the nuts and bolts of duplicate laid out, scorecards and other paraphernalia. We can comfortably represent that ours is essentially complete -- we can not say we have all the scorecards that were originally in the kit, but we certainly have everything that really mattered, and also we have at least a sample of the other less critical things. The box is about 4 lbs, or 1.6 kg, and it measures 26 by 22 by 4 cm. We think our kit is in Fine condition, with a few minor caveats. The box has two small pieces chipped off from its lid side. One of those pieces, the larger one, we have, and thus can be re-attached. The cards show signs of use. One envelope has penciled numbers.
