First edition. 4, 8, 179pp, [3]. Contemporary gilt-ruled tree-calf, contrasting red morocco lettering-piece, carmine edges. A trifle rubbed, some surface loss to upper board. Later paper shelf-label of Cortachy Castle to FEP, early ownership inscription of David Ogilvy Arlie to title page. The first edition of a comprehensive study in Gaelic grammar by Alexander Stewart of Moulin (1764-1821), Presbyterian minister and scholar of Scottish Gaelic. This copy was previously held in the possession of Clan Ogilvy, of Angus Scotland, and appears to have been passed down for several generations: an early ownership inscription of 'David Ogilvy' seems to indicate it may have been initially acquired by either David Ogilvy, de jure 6th Earl of Airlie (1725-1803), or his successor, David Ogilvy, de jure 7th Earl of Airlie (1751-1812), and the later book-label of the clan's family seat at Cortachy Castle, Angus, suggests it may have remained in the Airlie library for some time. Size: 8vo.

Moscow; Leningrad: Gosudarstvennoe Nauchno-Tekhnicheskoe izd-vo Stroitel'noi Industrii i Sudostroeniia Gosstroizdat NKTP SSSR, 1934. Quarto (29.5 × 21.5 cm). Original embossed cloth over boards; 172 pp. With 260 illustrations from photographs and drawings in the main portion of the text, including one folding plate, and 84 illustrations in an appendix. Light soil to boards, else very good. First edition of this classic Soviet textbook on architectural composition, co-written by VKhUTEMAS architecture department instructors Vladimir Krinskii (1890-1970), Ivan Lamtsov (1899-1990), and Mikhail Turkus (1896-1991). Illustrated with photographs, plans, models, charts, and technical material, the text offers a study of composition, proportion, and space in historical architecture and its application to concerns and issues in modern Soviet design. In the introduction, the authors note that the volume is based on the course titled "Spatial composition" developed in 1923 at VKhUTEMAS, a school often compared to the Bauhaus in its experimental drive. In the same year, Vladimir Krinskii co-founded ASNOVA (the Association of New Architects), which came to count El Lissitzky, Aleksandr Rodchenko, and Aleksandr Mel'nikov among its members, and promoted a "rationalist" approach to architecture, as well as a synthesis of architecture with other arts. The group ceased to exist in 1932, after the consolidation of all architectural groups into the Union of Soviet Architects. According to Senkevich, this text was "The first effort after the disbanding of the architectural movements to amplify the former ASNOVA theory of architectural design and composition within the framework of the new trends in Soviet architecture" (Senkevich 211). A second edition of this text would be published in 1968. One of 4000 copies. As of February 2025, KVK, OCLC show four copies in North America.
