Condition: Near Fine. Lawson Wood; H. M. Bateman; Peter Fraser; W. Heath Robinson; George Morrow; Bert Thomas; and Alfred Leete. (illustrator). First Edition. Quirky, funny send-up of many aspects of home renovation by a stellar line-up of literary and visual humorists. Published by a major London contractor or construction firm, surely as a promotional tool. The firm, Bovis Ltd., was acquired and absorbed by P&O in 1974 and is now under yet another corporate umbrella but the underlying business itself, as opposed to its corporate ownership or organization, remains a significant player in its industry. In any case, for a private enterprise to afford the services of the talent involved in this promotion, it really had a robust war chest, for W. Heath Robinson and Lawson Wood, to name just two of the contributors, were immensely popular illustrators. As a promotion, Bovis goes the offbeat or unusual route of poking fun, albeit perhaps gentle fun, at its own industry and itself. Anyone who has engaged contractors, or even just standard tradespeople such as plumbers and electricians, will nod their head in recognition of the inevitable missteps and blunders committed by these professionals. N.d., 1950. 4to. 28 by 21 cm. 17 loose leaves. Unpaginated. Printing on one side of each. Title leaf. Six leaves following primarily textual, with a small vignette drawing or two at their base. Then ten leaves dominated by illustration(s) with captioning at their base, and sometimes by drawings if they are arranged as comic strips with multiple cells. Also some text on inside back of portfolio. Scarce, with only copies reflected on OCLC First Search at V&A, National Library of Scotland and Dartmouth. One OCLC entry indicates there are 18 leaves, while we are representing there are just 17. We believe that they are counting the portfolio as a leaf, which after all, has content, but as of this date, we aren't 100 percent certain. We would note, though, that our number seems also likelier, as the odds are against a company arranging for 11 illustrated plates or 7 text pages, as opposed to 10 and 6, respectively. The portfolio shows considerable wear, with a number of small tears, creases and the like. Its internal folds have also been repaired non-professionally with scotch tape. The portfolio, though, is still completely functional for its purpose. The leaves within are completely clean and we would say close to Like New condition. Overall, we thus would grade this very rare collection of home renovation humor as Near Fine. Portfolio, light card stock. With flaps. Plates loose within.

First edition of this scarce guide to Hindu law, online searches locate just four copies world-wide, BL, Oxford, Yale and Freie Universität, Berlin. The author, Reginald Thomson, B. L. Madras (Chennai), served as a pleader in the zillah, or district, court at Tinnevelly (Tirunelveli). The Manual was intended as a critique and update of the work of Sir Thomas Strange (1756-1841), Chief Justice of Madras between 1800 and 1816, whose pioneering Elements of Hindu Law had appeared in 1825. In his introduction, Thomson states that "there can be no question that a reliable handbook of Hindu law is a want generally felt, but particularly in the Mofussil", the rural districts of the country. While hesitating to accuse Strange of incompetence, he feels that the Chief Justice's unquestioning reliance on the opinions of Pundits - "Hindu Law-Officers whose duty it was to advise the English Judges when needful on questions of Hindu Law" (Hobson-Jobson) - whose expositions of the law Thomson considered "worse than useless", was a damaging influence on his work. Their opinions "were conflicting, and amid the chaos of conflicting sophistries, the truth became obscured", his Manual is intended to provide clarification, "a book of ready reference". The work contains chapters on property, marriage, guardianship, adoption, inheritance, partition, wills, contracts, Malabar law, and the law of limitation, citing Strange, "Colebrooke, Macnaghten, Ellis, Sutherland, and Macpherson", as well as the reports of the Madras High Courts. Second and third editions appeared in 1878 and 1881. Thomson was admitted at the Middle Temple in 1870 and called to the bar in November 1873. An attractive and desirable work with an excellent provenance. Octavo. Two-page list of 'Higginbotham and Co.'s Indian Publications' dated July 1870 tipped-in at front endpapers Original purple morocco-grain cloth, paper label to the front board, blind panels to both. Somewhat rubbed and sunned, faint damping to the front board, neatly rebacked to style, ex-Middle Temple Library, stamps to ad. leaf, twice to the title page, and once to the text, accession date inked to the front pastedown together with de-accesion stamp, pale toning to the text-block, very good.
