Spanish Army uniforms. Notes and sketches on the uniforms of the Spanish army in 1878. [Manuscript] Sl [Paris], sd (1893). Square folio of [4] ff. of text and 38 plates of uniforms, finely hand-drawn and watercolored on drawing paper (30.5 x 23 cm), mounted on strong paper on tabs, and each captioned with a handwritten sheet opposite, all in large, highly legible handwriting, brown half-maroquin with corners, ornate ribbed spine, mosaic pieces bearing the colors of Spain and forming a flag at the head of the spine, double gilt fillet on covers, gilt head (period binding). A very fine copy. Superb and exceptional album of uniforms. Taking advantage of Spain's participation in the 1878 Universal Exhibition, the 2nd Bureau of the French General Staff, with the consent of the interested parties, wanted to take copies of the uniforms of the corps present in the inter-army military detachment that accompanied the Spanish pavilion to Paris. This work was entrusted to squadron leader Lahalle, who signed the introduction to the collection (dated November 18, 1879). It was he who took the sketches from life and wrote the captions, partly based on the regulatory documentation kept at the General Staff. The result was a single copy, kept at the 2nd Staff Office. It reproduces 38 uniforms, distributed as follows: King's Household (8 plates). - Infantry (9 plates). - Cavalry (11 plates). - Artillery (2 plates). - Engineers (4 plates). - Auxiliary corps (Guardia Civil and Carabinieros, 4 plates). Subsequently, in 1893, an apparently unique COPY was made at the request of Captain Charles-Marie-Jacques-Octave Exelmans (1854-1935), grandson of the Marshal, for his uncle, the famous collector Auguste Balsan (1836-1896). This is the copy we present, with Balsan's ex-libris vignette (number 478), engraved by Stern. Presented, along with the rest of the Balsan collection, at the 1910 public auction, the album was chosen by the heirs to be offered to Colonel Exelmans, former military attaché to Spain and Portugal from 1892 to 1898, the same person who had authorized the copying work, as attested by a handwritten note pasted on the first endpapers, and dated Grand-Broutay (Exelmans family residence) August 4, 1910.

[America - PAULMIER DE COURTONNE (Jean). Mémoires touchant l'établissement d'une mission chrestienne dans le troisième monde, autrement appellé, La Terre Australe, Meridionale, Antartique, & Inconnuë. Dediez à Nostre S. Père le Pape Alexandre VII. Par un Ecclésiastique Originaire de cette mesme Terre. Paris, Claude Cramoisy, 1663. In-8 of [18] ff. 215-[1] pp. post mottled vellum. Rousseurs. Very rare first (and only) edition of this important account of the voyage of Binot Paulmier, sieur du Bucquet, known as the Captain of Gonneville, a Norman navigator who is said to have been the first Frenchman to arrive in Brazil, in 1504. He left Honfleur on June 24, 1503 aboard the ship l'Espoir, with 60 crew members, for the East Indies but, perhaps after rounding the Cape of Good Hope and missing the "loop", he was pushed towards an unknown land and ended up in the Terres Australes (renamed Brazil) on January 6, 1504, where he spent six months in refit. On July 3, he sailed back to France with Essomericq, the son of the chief of the native tribe. After a nightmarish odyssey, on May 7, 1505, his ship ran aground in Guernsey, where it was pillaged. Arriving in Honfleur on foot on May 20, only twenty-seven people survived, including the Indian Essomericq, baptized during the crossing and adopted by Gonneville, who married him to one of his relatives, Marie Moulin, who bore him fourteen children. After his wife's death, Essomericq remarried another young girl from Honfleur, who bore him seven daughters. The story doesn't appear until 1663, when Jean Paulmier de Courtonne, a relative of Binot and canon of Lisieux's Saint-Pierre cathedral, publishes this work in which he claims to be the great-grandson of an Indian brought to France by Binot Paulmier in 1505. Jean Paulmier de Courtonne asserted that French patriotism had been affected by the Dutch and English discoveries in the South Pacific, and used the account of the voyage to justify the French settlement and claim precedence. This grievance gained ground in the eighteenth century, justifying the French expeditions of Bougainville and Bouvet (source Wikipedia). The authenticity of the story has long been the subject of controversy (until recently, according to recent, still contradictory research), with no definitive proof either in favor or against. Handwritten bookplate to title Anquetil-Perron (who states "Le Journal des SS. de mars 1739 dit que ce livre est rare."). Ex-libris JM. (Leclerc 1628; Brunet III 1595 "Let us add to these details that the edition having been printed and put on sale without the author's knowledge, he only became aware of it six weeks after it was made public, and that then, unable to obtain the seizure of the edition, because of the privilege with which it is covered, he consented to its circulation, after, however, a warning had been attached, in which his grievances are set out. This warning, which occupies nine pages and is followed by a f. of errata, is therefore not to be found in the copies sold first", it is indeed present).
