2pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. 'Lord Bingham presents his compliments to Sir Francis Freeling & will feel much obliged to him if he will be good enough to have the accompanying letter opened & returned to him free of postage as Ld. B. knows it to be a Petition to the House of Commons | Ld. B. is anxious to have the Petition returned to him by his servant as it will be necessary that it should be presented this day | 3 Park Place | June 12th.'

The other cutting, ffrom the Illustrated London News, is a biographical article headed 'MAJOR-GENERAL THE EARLOF LUCAN' and begins: 'IN this week's number of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS we present our readers with an admirable Portrait of Major-General the Earl of Lucan, appointed to command the cavalry division now in course of embarkation for the seat of war.'.…

Ngt senare svart halvskinnband med prydliga biblioteksmarkeringar från Kalmar stadsbibliotek (stämplar, hyllsigna, lånesticka och katalogkort i ficka) samt med några tidningsurklipp om Rudbeck i ett kuvert som fästs på främre spegeln. Främre blå otryckta omslaget medbundet, med Atterboms egenhändiga dedikation: "Till Hr Professor Beckman från hans vän Författaren". Prydliga rättelser i bläck på s. 83, 85-7, 100, 125, 178, 203, 208, 259, 271, & 333, synbarligen av Atterbom själv. Mottagaren var västgöten Anders Fredrik Beckman (1812-1894), som disputerat för Atterbom 1836 och utsetts till tf. professor i pastoralteologi vid Uppsala universitet 1847 och till professor i dogmatik och moralteologi 1851. Han var senare biskop i Härnösand, och i Skara från 1875. Stockholm, P. A. Norstedt & Söner, 1849 [-1851]. 8:o. Litograferat titelblad + 394 s. Sällsynt separatupplaga av denna uppsats, som även trycktes i del 23 & 24 av Svenska Akademiens handlingar ifrån 1796 (1850 & 1851, s. 314-580 + litogr. frontispis & s. 1-125). Särtrycksupplagan är naturligtvis också tryckt i två omgångar, och utgavs säkert som en helhet vid fullbordandet av handlingarnas del 24 (1851). Antagandet styrks av det bevarade blå främre omslaget och spår av ett identiskt bakre omslag i detta exemplar. En tryckt hänvisning på s. 271 dirigerar läsaren till "föregående delen, sid 501", vilket här rättats i bläck till "sid. 191", det korrekta sidnumret för särtrycksupplagan. "Atterboms [biografi] över Rudbeck [.] var den utförligaste och bästa avhandling i svensk lärdomshistoria, som då ännu författats, ett levande porträtt från svensk stormaktstid" (Bengt Hildebrand, "Biografisk historiografi och Svenskt Biografiskt Lexikon", PHT 40 (1939-40), s. 163).…

An envelope has been pasted to the front paste down containing a newspaper clipping about the discovery of rare tiles in a pub in Hastings. The original cover mentions a map - this is not present. There is seperation of the pages between pps 34 and 35. Despite this list of defects, this appears to be a scarce title which is generally only available in the "Print on demand" format. G.…
