CARVED RAMSES II TOE FRAGMENT
CARVED RAMSES II TOE FRAGMENT Silver Mounted Pink Granite Toenail Fragment, purportedly from one of the colossal statues of Pharoah Ramses II (reigned ca. 1279-1213 BC) at the entrance to the Temple of Luxor (Luxor, Egypt); collected by photographer, author and adventurer Sigmund Krausz in 1899, who took possession of this piece because of a concern that it would otherwise be lost forever. Krausz brought the fragment to Europe and had it mounted in silver with the engraved notation: "Small toenail from colossal Statue of Ramses II. Temple of Luxor, Feb. 13th, 1899"; 2 1/2" high, 4 1/2" x 3 1/2"; Accompanied by a framed and notarized statement made in Chicago in 1919, from Krausz describing his acquisition of this piece, OS: 12" x 9".
Sigmund Krausz was made famous by his documentary photos released as "Street Types of Chicago" in 1892, the first publication of its kind. He also wrote "The Autocar Automobile Directory" and as record of his time overseas "Towards the Rising Sun, a Story of Travel & Adventure", published by Laird & Lee in Chicago, 1903. This recounted his travels parts to Greece and Asia Minor, Egypt and India.

1469 CATHOLICON PRINTED INCUNABLE
1469 CATHOLICON PRINTED INCUNABLE LEAF (GUTENBERG ATTR.)An early printed leaf of the Catholicon of Johannes Balbus of Genoa. Mainz, first printed in 1460, this from the second impression in 1469. Galliziani folio with Gothic type in Latin, 66 lines in two columns. This leaf containing dictionary entries from "Arrepticius" to "Asintheton." 14 1/4" x 11 1/4", and housed in a mat that measures 18 1/2" x 14 1/2".
Originally written in 1286, Balbus's Catholicon was a significant encyclopedic text, and following Gutenberg's invention of the printing press, it would become the first work of secular learning ever printed. The first edition of the Catholicon was printed in three impressions, dated 1460, 1469, and 1472. Printed on Galliziani paper, this leaf is from the second impression, the rarest of the three.
There is debate about the printer of the Catholicon: at one point presumed to be Johannes Gutenberg, the identity of the printer is now viewed as less than conclusive. The most recent leading theory, espoused by incunabula scholar Paul Needham is that the Catholicon was printed from 2-line slugs (stereotype) by Gutenberg, a process previously thought to have been developed a few decades later. If that is the case, not only would Catholicon be Gutenberg's final printed work, but it would also represent another significant technological leap forward as the first example of stereotype. According to this theory, the second impression in 1469 was printed by Peter Schoeffer and Konrad Humery from Gutenberg's original slugs.
Provenance : A private collection, acquired from H.P. Kraus Rare Books and Manuscripts (New York).
Condition
The leaf is archivally hinged at the left edge to the backing mat. Good condition, with very slight chips to the edges and top right corner. Mild browning to the edges.
