Munich: J. F. Schreiber & Deutsche Hochbild-Gesellschaft, c. 1920s. Painted plaster anatomical relief display in wooden frame (240 x 302 mm). Printed paper label to the rear. Housed in the original box with the stamp of the publisher's archive and two handwritten labels - one giving the name of the display and the other reading "F21". Also with the original tissue-covered cotton insert to protect the relief. A few very minor scratches and spots to the frame. There is some wear to the box and the tissue covering for the cotton padding is torn. Excellent condition. Uncommon, early-20th century anatomical relief of the European frog species Rana esculenta (the common European water frog, or green frog). The publisher's archive copy, in excellent condition in the original box. This relief was one of a series produced for schools, Vergleichende Anatomie der Wirbeltiere (Comparative Anatomy of the Vertebrates), designed by the German behavioural scientist and educational writer Bastian Schmid (1870-1944) for the major educational publisher J. F. Schreiber. They were published in co-operation with the Deutsche Hochbild-Gesellschaft (German Society for Relief Pictures), which published scientific relief pictures using a method analogous to the Wenschow Process. The printed paper label on the back gives the names of the frogs' body parts and also introduces the diagram, "This relief is the second in the series Comparative Anatomy of the Vertebrates and, like the Fish, is intended to be useful both for theoretical instruction and for biological exercises in higher schools. To the left a female, on the right a male animal, both natural size with the brain and spinal cord enlarged. In the female we see the entire intestines, the respiratory system, the heart with its anterior chambers, the aortic arch..."

1694 1ed Francis Bacon Natural History Sylva Sylvarum Sapientia Complete Works"Some books should be tasted, some devoured, but only a few should be chewed and digested thoroughly."
― Francis Bacon
Francis Bacon, one of the most famous English philosophers and scientists of the Renaissance. While most of his work deals with discovery, scientific method, and the scientific revolution, he did lean strongly toward Puritanism in his personal devotion.
This impressive 1694 first edition of the works of Bacon includes his most famous treatises including 'Sylva Sylvarum', 'Historia Naturalis', 'History of King Henry VII', and 'De Sapientia Veterum', as well as many, many others. And while the contents of this work are desirable, the impressive vellum-bound, folio tome makes this work a truly remarkable piece!

London:: J. Nourse, 1769., 1769. 8vo. x, ii, 368, [4] pp. 16 engraved folding plates, last two leaves contain the errata and advertisements. Original full calf, gilt-stamped raised bands; front cover reinforced with kozo. Bookplate of Rev. N. Hubbersty, Wirksworth [U.K.]. Very good. Scarce. First edition. Preface signed: 'W. Emerson'. Emerson was an English mathematician. "Unsuccessful as a teacher he devoted himself entirely to studious retirement, and published many works which are singularly free from errata. In mechanics he never advanced a proposition which he had not previously tested in practice, nor published an invention without first proving its effects by a model." – Britannica. Niccol- Guicciardini describes Emerson as among the group in Britain that developed Newtonian calculus during the eighteenth century. As Emerson was industrious he produced, perhaps by contract with his publisher John Nourse, several solid works on mechanics, mathematics and the present one on astronomy. All are…
