Title: Die Öffentliche Maskerade in Bamberg Fastnachts Montage 1833 in kolorirten Abbildungen
Seller: White Fox Rare Books and Antiques (United States)
Condition: Very Good
Description: Bamberg: Verlag der Drausnick'sche Buch und Kunsthandlung, 1833. First Edition. Hardcover. Paper pastedown on boards. Cloth spine. Modern cloth clamshell box. Very Good. A spectacular, and scarce, festival processional or parade book. Only copy showing on OCLC First Search located in Berlin. There are two copies of what seems a somewhat similar Bamberg procesional from four years later, but not only does this other work memorialize a different year's festivities, but also it is of a different size and format. Oblong, 22 by 24.5 cm. 28 hand-colored lithographic plates, eleven of which are double paged. The plates are here not in numerical order, but all are present, most importantly. And the coloring is especially rich and appealing. Among the participants in this procession depicted here are a band compreised of both men and women, all on horseback, the women, side saddle, with elements of costume added to the band member's conventional dress (their regular clothing), and curiously including two black men; the mandatory Harlequin, here also on a bedizened horse rearing up; preposterously dressed riders supposedly representing a traveler, with a crosswalk sign, and a London horse master with all sorts of absurd gear piled up; a commander of the Kraehwinkler, a word we are uncertain how to translate, but possibly, Crow Merchants; a Sunday rider dressed as an effiminate dandy; etc. etc. There are men in drag, women with giant pipes, and endless silliness. The characters being played are obviously meant to be absurd. Condition: film of soiling, and some scratches on paper pastedown cover and cloth spine. Corners and edges rubbed. Leaves within with light age toning evident along their edges, and some occasional light foxing, but overall, the imagery is bright, and the paper reads as mostly clean.
