Two pages and one page, 4to, good condition. A. The agent details the expense of travel for "Miss Pirrie", Pirrie's use of a coupon, baggage allowance (for S.S. Arcadia), enclosing a traveller's Guide [not present], concluding with stamped signature "Henry King & Co."; B. Concerning the Bill of lading for Pirrie's "3 cases", shi…pped by the S.S. Coromandel. A paragraph asking for an Invoice is crossed out, and a sentence added: "The goods have been duly cleared and forwarded". Note from source of the letters: "F.W. Pirrie joined the Indian Army Survey dept and eventually rose to the rank of Brevet Colonel. He fought in the Chitral operation (1895) and against the Turks in the First World War, being mentioned in despatches on six occasions. He was involved in the Survey of India and contributed to its reports. He also served on the Mount Everest Committees of 1920-24. It would seem that he was on leave (1897?) and would have had a voucher for his return from Brindisi but now intended to commence his journey from London.".

2pp., 4to. Bifolium, addressed on reverse of second leaf to 'Andrew Scott Esqre | Edinburgh', with two postmarks and wafer, and directed to be sent 'Pacific via Liverpool'. In fair condition, on lightly-aged paper. Signed for the firm 'Crombie Maclaren & Co'. The firm begins by informing him that 'our market for your shipments h…ave been very bad, indeed we could not move them at almost any price'. In explanation the firm writes: 'In consequence of the large profits formerly obtained in these Colonies it has induced for many to ship and the result has been that they have overdone the market.' The firm is 'very sanguine indeed of an improvement taking place soon as our Imports are certainly falling off a little and the price of certain descriptions of Goods has improved in proportion.' They still have 'a few articles of A. S. & Cos. shipment on Hand', and they propose to sell these off by auction 'to close the shipment'. Records indicate that Scott had the previous year sent a speculative cargo of sugar, tobacco, coffee, rum and brandy from the West Indies via the Hind. The present item is the office copy of the letter, bearing at the head in faint red ink: 'Duplicate | Original Katherine Stewart Forbes | via London'. As stated, the original letter was carried back to England aboard the Katherine Stewart Forbes, which on its outward voyage had carried 200 male convicts, having left Spithead in October 1829 and arriving in Sydney 18 February 1830.

An interesting piece of Royal Navy and Napoleonic War ephemera, casting light on the implementation of Admiralty Prize Law. See the reference to the writer of this letter in the 1926 'Memorials of the family of Hurry of Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, and of America, Australia, and South Africa': 'Edmund Cobb [Hurry], born at Great Yar…mouth, in 1762, admitted a freeman by birthright, 23rd of August, 1782. He settled as a merchant and banker, at Gosport, where he married a Miss Liddell. Edmund Cobb Hurry died at Clifton, in 1808.' The recipients, Cox and Co, army and marine agents, were located at 44 Hatton Garden, London. 1p, 4to. In good condition, lightly aged. Reads: 'Sir / Having learnt that you are one of the principal Agents for the Captain and Officers of His Majesty's Navy, and as in the Event of their sending in Prizes to this Port you must necessarily have some Person to take charge of the disposal of the Ships and their Cargoes, we beg leave to acquaint you that we are established in that Business, and if you are not already engaged, shall be extremely happy in receiving your Commands. For our Responsibility and Mode of doing Business we refer you to Messrs Barclays & Co. of Lombard St Bankers. / Your Answer will greatly oblige / Sir, / Your most obedient Servts. / Edmund Hurry & Co.'.

Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket Issued. First Edition. A turn-of-the-century trade presentation showcasing the height of the American bicycle craze and the rapid commercialization of the safety bicycle. Issued at a critical juncture in leisure transport history, this catalog outlines detailed specification…s for three premium regional lines: the B & D Special, the Park Flyer, and the ultra-scarce Copley line, which operated exclusively during the year 1899. It documents the late-Victorian transition toward standardized consumer athletics, featuring specialized mechanics for adult road racers and children's models sourced from the Fay Bicycle Company. KEY FEATURES +++ Visuals: Elaborately illustrated throughout with detailed technical wood engravings demonstrating frame configurations, gear layouts, and drop-handlebar profiles for specific models. +++ Binding: Original stiff illustrated stapled wraps; retaining bright, clean corporate lithographic cover design. +++ Content: Exhaustive parts pricing, mechanical dimensions, and optional upgrades for the B & D Special, Park Flyer, and Copley lines, including technical agent data for Ohio-manufactured Dayton Bicycles. +++ Imprint: Bigelow & Dowse Co., Boston, Massachusetts, 1899. +++ Specs: 8.5 x 8 inches; 12 pages, complete. +++ Unmarked domestic copy completely free of library stamps or industrial workshop notation. CONDITION: Fine. A remarkably bright and well-preserved specimen. The stiff paper wraps remain clean, flat, and structurally sound, with no fading to the lithographic ink. The staples are secure and completely free of oxidation or rust transfer. Internally, the pages are crisp, bright, and untouched, completely without flaw, marks, or the heavy thumb-soiling typical of late 19th-century hardware and trade literature. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- By the late 1890s, the American landscape had been utterly transformed by the bicycle boom. The introduction of the safety bicycle-featuring two equal-sized wheels and a chain-driven rear axle-replaced the dangerous, high-perch ordinary bicycle, democratizing cycling for women, children, and the broader urban public. This 1899 catalog from Boston hardware powerhouse Bigelow & Dowse documents the peak of this cultural frenzy. Rather than acting as a simple order sheet, the volume showcases how traditional industrial jobbers adjusted their entire distribution frameworks to accommodate the mass-market demands of seasonal sports and athletic leisure. The inclusion of specialized youth models from the Fay Bicycle Company emphasizes the expanding nature of the late-nineteenth-century consumer market, demonstrating that bicycle ownership had transitioned from an elite hobby into a standardized family fixture. SCHOLARLY FEATURES +++ Design: Captures late-Victorian athletic marketing layouts, pairing bold typography with isolated mechanical profiles to emphasize structural lightweight speed. +++ Scholarship: Serves as a vital primary document for the history of American transportation, tracking the rapid shift away from the high-wheel ordinary bicycle to the equal-wheeled safety design. +++ Influence: Preserves the fleeting industrial footprint of the Copley Company, whose single-year operational window (1899) makes their surviving trade literature extraordinarily scarce. SUBJECTS: Bicycles, 19th-Century Transportation, American Leisure Culture, Boston Commerce, Industrial Design, Trade Catalogues, Ephemera, Fay Bicycle Company, Huffman Bicycles, Dayton Ohio Manufacturing, Ephemera, Trade Catalogue.

Fifteen partnership agreements (indentures, memoranda, articles of copartnership) relating to the London banking firm of Thomson Hankey & Co., dating from between 1825 and 1929.Having traded with Jamaica, Antigua and the Leeward Islands in partnership with John Houblon. Captain Samuel Hankey commenced in business as a City of Lo…ndon banker-goldsmith in 1685. The firm prospered to such an extent that his son Henry owned Jonathan's Coffee House in Exchange Alley, the precursor of the London Stock Exchange, and was knighted in 1732. Its fortunes continued to flourish with the slave trade, and by the early 1820s its headquarters at 7 Mincing Lane in the City of London handled the accounts of a number of prominent proprietors of West Indian plantations, including William Beckford. As an indication of the family's continuing prosperity, the wealth of Thompson Hankey senior (1773-1855, grandson of Sir Thomas Hankey) was stated at his death to be 'within province' of the fabulous sum of £140,000.The present collection of fifteen items documents the changes within the firm over the course of a century, and includes details of business and financial arrangements and capitalization.
