10 AMER, Moustapha, Abdel Moneim Abou Baker, Zaki Saad, Osman R. Rouston. Plates by Adham & Seif Wanly. Photographs by Abdel Fattah Eid. (Ministère de la Culture et de l’Orientation Nationale; Administration Générale des Beaux Arts). La Nubie. Le Caire, Ministère de la Culture et de l’Orientation Nationale, 1960.Oblong octavo.

Hardcover, bound in the original publisher’s buckram, green lettering, with (worn) pictorial dust-jacket. In a very good condition.
- - Of particular interest are the photographs in this book, which were selected, and should be valued for their artistic merit. The beautifully reproduced early colour photographs were not printed in offset lithography but from relief metal blocks. A somewhat laborious process, it could yield exceptionally nice results if done with great attention to detail, and the plates here are a good example for such. Scarce.

- - Mémoires publiés par les Membres de l’Institut Français d’Archéologie Orientale du Caire, Tome XCI. Complete sets, including the scarce “Atlas du Delta Occidental”, are very uncommon. Collotype is one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process, it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios, and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms. It is particularly noteworthy that the maps here are printed in this technique, considering their large surface.

101 CHAPMAN, Suzanne F. With text by Dows Dunham. The Royal Cemeteries of Kush. Volume III: Decorated Chapels of the Meroitic Pyramids at Meroë and Barkal. Boston, Museum of Fine Art, 1952.Oversized imperial folio, measuring 61.5 X 48.5cm. Pp. (iv), 5, (2) fold-out List of Plates bound at end. Plus 34 leaves of plates, comprising of Chapman’s drawings and of photo plates, all printed in collotype on recto only. Hardcover, all leaves, including the letterpress, tipped-in onto paper stubs, bound in the original cloth-backed boards, upper board printed in black, half-title present, decorative device to title-page. A fine copy in excellent condition.
- - The fine collotype plates were printed by Meriden Gravure Co. of Meriden, Connecticut; the letterpress text was printed by Harvard University Printing Office. In Dunham’s words, the substance of this volume lies wholly in the plates. Collotype is one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process, it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios, and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms.

The texts are presented in their respective original languages (Old Egyptian, Demotic, Meroitic, Greek, Coptic and Latin) as well as in new English translations, and each is accompanied by an historical commentary. The translations are framed by philological introductions and notes intended to place the individual texts into their wider literary context and to substantiate the translators’ interpretation of difficult passages. The commentary following the translations presents historical analyses and provides information about the historical context. Ample space has been given to bibliographical references.

- - The fine technique of printing the beautiful gravure plates, developed by Karl Klic (1841-1927), is often referred to erratically as photogravure or heliogravure, terms which describe another process. Experiments in gravure printing began in the 1850s, and reproductions of rare prints by this method became common from the 1870s. It was not, however, until around 1880 that the development of this most brilliant and faithful monochrome reproductive technique yet known in the history of printing, began. Klic adapted the cross-line screen to the old hand photogravure process, but kept it secret rather than patenting it, and the technique was reinvented by others in the years afterwards.

- - First edition. Exceedingly scarce. KVK lists 5 copies only, in Library of Congress, British Library, University of Aberdeen, Union Catalog of Canada, and Union Catalog North Rhine-Westphalia. OCLC 6673313. Charles Piazzi Smyth (1819-1900) was astronomer-royal for Scotland, professor of practical astronomy at the University of Edinburgh, fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and of the Royal Societies of London and Edinburgh. Smyth was heavily influenced by pyramid theorist John Taylor who theorized that the Great Pyramid was planned and the building supervised by the biblical Noah. Refused a grant by the Royal Society, Smyth went on an expedition to Egypt in order to accurately measure every surface, dimension, and aspect of the Great Pyramid. He subsequently published his book “Our Inheritance in the Great Pyramid” (1864). He claimed that the measurements he obtained from the Great Pyramid of Giza indicated a unit of length, the pyramid inch, a God-given measure handed down through the centuries from the time of Israel. His conclusion was that the architects of the pyramid could only have been directed by the hand of God.
