(Bookbinding) Brunet, Gustave RÉLIURE ANCIENNE ET MODÈRNE, RÉCUEIL DE 116 PLANCHES
Paris Paul Daffis 1878 small 4to contemporary half calf, five raised bands, top edge gilt, with original front wrapper bound-in at end. viii, 8 pages followed by 116 full-page plates.
First edition. (Mejer no.27; Brenni no.282). A collection of 116 photo engravings of the finest examples of French bookbinding produced from the 16th to 19th centuries. Compiled by one of France's most renowned bibliophiles, the reproductions portray works executed with lavish attention to detail by master bookbinders such as Padeloup, Clovis and Nicolas Eve, le Gascon, and Nicolas Derome. In addition, since these works of art belonged to notables such as Jean Grolier, François Ièr, Diane de Poitiers, Louis XIII, Mazarin, and Cosimo de Medicis, to name a few, their value rendered them inaccessible to the scrutiny of most bibliophiles. Therefore, through the precisely reproduced plates in this album, Brunet intended to give bibliophiles the opportunity to acquire a deeper knowledge of the details and artistry of the original bindings and also to appreciate the progress of the art through the centuries. In red, brown, or black-and-white, the plates are from the Bibliophile Français (1808 - 1873). Keyed to the plates is a descriptive table, of which thirty-one more important and distinctive works receive enhanced descriptions. Foreword, introduction and table handsomely printed with wide margins. Booklabel of Miss Ann Ingersoll Meigs who has signed and dated (December 1883) this copy on the half-title. Covers show wear around edges and tips with part of leather chipped away at the bottom of the spine. Has been skillfully rebacked with original leather spine laid down on newer matching leather. Free endpaper partially detached. Ownership inscription in pencil.

(Bookbinding) CATALOGUE OF A SELECTED PORTION OF THE FAMOUS LIBRARY PRINCIPALLY OF FINE BINDINGS, RARE ENGRAVINGS, ILLUSTRATED BOOKS, AND FRENCH LITERATURE FORMED BY THE LATE MORTIMER SCHIFF, ESQ. OF NEW YORK CITY.
3 volumes London Sotheby & Co. 1938 8vo. stiff green paper wrappers. 554, (12) pages.
Auction catalogues of the library of fine bindings and illustrated books from the library of Mortimer Schiff (1877-1931), Sotheby, London, March, July, and December 1938 (Blogie III, 23-25; VII, 5-7; XII, 6-9), 2476 lots. Nothing comparable with these bindings had "been seen in London since the Holdford Sale more than ten years earlier." The real strength of the library is in the 18th century. Probably never since the Hamilton Palace Sale have so many examples of the inlaid binding of the period been offered for sale in London, culminating in Louis Douceur's emblematically tooled binding on Daphnis and Chloe and the amazing chinoiserie signed Monnier, the most elaborate binding of the period known to us. The auction proved to be disastrous for the heirs. The only beneficiaries were collectors like Lessing J. Rosenwald, who through Rosenbach, found it possible to obtain rare bindings and illustrated folios for bargain prices (Dickinson, p.282). Each volume illustrated throughout in black and white and color (121 plates). Front inside hinge broken of volume one and covers and spine loose from binding; tear in title page with a piece detached. Ink stamp of B.F. Stevens & Brown Ltd. on front covers of volume two and three
