8vo. xii, 304 pp. Multi-fold lithographic frontispiece; p. 238 pencil marginalia (mentions Dr. Richard Bright in text). Original full blue-green blind- and gilt-stamped cloth; extremities gently mended with kozo. Penciled ownership signature [possibly Eugene M. Blake, MD]. Good. George Corfe, of Middlesex Hospital, member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. In this bizarre treatise the author described the kidney as a 'log of oil' (p.64), now seen as evidence of medical quackery. / The British and Foreign Medical Review was unkind to Corfe's work: 'This work, from the pen of Mr. George Corfe, the resident medical officer to the Middlesex Hospital, is one of the most singular modern productions that it has been our lot to peruse. It may safely be pronounced a psychological curiosity, and would seem to have been thrown upon the present century by a sort of hap-hazard. It certainly can be classed only with the writings of the Theosophists and Cabbalists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.'.…

First edition. Engraved sheet music. Association copy: "From Mr Joseph Corfe to Jos.h Gear. Salisbury 1805." presumably in Joseph Gear's hand on the advertisement page in black ink. Illustrated with three mounted ink drawings also by Gear. In contemporary half leather, with gilt-stamped red maroquin ownership label mounted on the front cover. Panels covered with marbled paper. Spine and leathers with black embossed rules and ornaments. (4), 134 p., and two leaves of manuscript scores and two plates with three mounted illustrations. Association copy of Joseph Corfe's selection of Handel's works, supplemented with two leaves of manuscript score and three original ink drawings by Joseph Gear, to whom Corfe gave this volume. Joseph Gear (17681853) was a painter, engraver, and a double bassist at the Drury Lane Theatre in London, and after his immigration to the United States in 1824, at the Tremont Street theatre in Boston. He illustrated the present compilation of Handel's works with the three artworks, related to the compositions: The Sacrifice of Jephthah's Daughter after John Opie's 1790 painting, The Grand Triumphal of Alexander, and the copy of a detail of the frontispiece for Handel's 1738 edition of Alexander's Feast. All drawings are mounted on cardboard plates, with title and source by Gear's hand in pencil. There are two leaves of manuscript scores in the book. The first is a recitative from the third part of The Sacred Oratorio of Redemption, edited from Handel's oratorios by Samuel Arnold, which was performed at the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane in 1786. The second score, dedicated to Gear by an unknown hand, is a cello section for Mathan's air from Handel's Athalia(HWV 52). Joseph Corfe (17401820) was an English singer, and composer, the organist of Salisbury Cathedral and a Gentleman of the Royal Chapel. Corfe was a respected singing teacher and a prolific author. His published works include A Treatise on Singing, Sacred Music, The Beauties of Handel, Beauties of Purcell, Thorough Bass Simplified, and Church Music. As a composer, he wrote church music, glees, and anthems. Corfe sang at the Handel Commemoration in 1784.
