Life And Exploits Of DON QUIXOTE - Charles Jarvis - 1824
7/20/23 - I put this exhibit together for my friend Steve Hanon (@SRHanon). I don't know the meaning of all the Quixote images in this exhibit, but they are beautiful, intricate and likely from 1824. Steve is the person who sparked my passionate interest in maps. He gently encouraged me, over the course of multiple years, to check out the antique map world. Steve is President of the New York Map Society, a collectors of maps, and a history lover. His personal website is mapmaven.Tom Paper (@tomadmin) 5/21/2023Steve looks a bit crazed (or Quixote-like) here, but he’s a great guy, always fun to be with and a dear friend."Translated By Charles Jarvis ESQ. Printed By W Sears. The book seems to be missing the first few pages and therefore I can find no date, however the Life Of The Author section and The Author's Preface are present and complete and the book begins at the beginning on page 1 which is Part I Book I. The Book also contains Part II Book I. After a little research I believe the book may date to around 1824 and possibly published by either Knight & Lacy or Jones & Co. I may be utterly wrong so please feel free to do your own research - there is a fantastic iconography of Don Quixote online. This edition has a "Directions For Placing The Cuts" page and approx 24 incredibly detailed engravings." vintagehomeantiques@hotmail.co.uk https://www.ebay.com/str/aloadofoldtatuk keyword: memorabilia
