Zustand: Good. Post Card. 9 x 14 cm. VG.Provenance:From the archives of the celebrated bookstore and literary salon Herckenrath on Veldstraat in Ghent (Gand) Belgium. Founded by the writer Adolf Herckenrath (1879-1958) in 1909; continued by his son Walter Herckenrath (1907- 1989) and by Walter's children Guy and Helga Herckenrath until around 2000?.Poète, dramaturge, libraire et éditeur. Adolf Herckenrath est entré dans l' histoire en tant qu'ami d'enfance pour lequel Karel van de Woestijne a écrit son Laethemsche Brieven sur Lente (1901)? À partir de novembre 1909, Herckenrath résida dans la Veldstraat, où il conserva la librairie Adolf Hoste et, une fois l'université devenue bilingue, principalement consacré à la littérature francophone. Entre les deux guerres mondiales, Herckenrath était toujours actif en tant que professeur et membre du conseil d'administration de l'académie de théâtre de Gand, pour laquelle un magazine De Tooneelschool (1937-1940) avait également été fondé. Il aida à fonder Pan, le cercle de la littérature flamande orientale, en 1938? En 1935, Herckenrath s'installa dans la villa 't Kersouwken sur l'Eikeldreef à Sint-Martens-Latem. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il y résidera officiellement pendant quelques mois (de mai à novembre 1944). Il est ensuite retourné dans sa librairie de la Veldstraat où il vivrait (au moins officiellement) jusqu'à sa mort. Après la guerre, sa librairie a été reconstruite par le célèbre architecte Geo Henderick. Grâce à la continuation de son fils, Walter, et de ses petits-enfants, Guy et Helga, le nom Herckenrath a également survécu jusqu'à la fermeture de l'entreprise à la mi-2000.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. [1924], 4pp, 48 loosely mounted postcards (complete), brown cloth boards, gilt titles, light brown plain dustwrapper, box. Apart from the 4pp at the start of the album coming loose due to rusty staples, the album and cards are in as new condition, the dustwrapper is a touch edge worn and the box is a little worn with one flap missing. The contract to publish postcards of Queen Mary's dolls' house was won by Raphael Tuck & Sons and 48 postcards in 6 series of 8 were sold in a blue box, together with an album that held all 48 cards. The album appears in (at least) 3 variants - the one in brown cloth that we have, another in brown cloth with 'Souvenir issued by Fleetway Press Ltd at the British Empire Exhibition 1924' (Fleetway were the Exhibition's official publishers) and in red cloth (perhaps for presentation?). The album would have been on sale at the British Empire Exhibition at which the Dolls' House was on display. All the proceeds from the cards and albums were distributed to various charities. A rare album, hard to find a better example!
