Text clear and complete on discoloured and creased paper. Chatty and humorous letter. 'By the time you read this letter we will have either left a terrible stench in the Theatre or else the Manager will be satisfied. [.] JANUARY 11, FLASH!!!! The well known German movie star and Humorist, Willy Reichert, has refused permission to the Four Comets, American Roller Skaters enjoying too much success already, the favour of breaking in a new number. It is rumored back-stage that the "STAR" has heard too many laughs abou the new ACT of the Four Comets . . . . . . . . X "SCOOP" Hoskins'. Postscript reads 'Hello Maurice [Colleano] - Your blue-eyed girl really misses you.' The Four Comets have been described as 'Acrobatic roller-skating stunt quartet. The two men wear tailcoats, the women diaphanous dresses. They perform on a small circular mat. Various shots of different combinations of the quartet performing amazing, gravity defying tricks. The tricks involve them spinning around the small mat and lifting each other into the air.' From the Colleano Family archive.

(London, John Murray, 1820, 1821, 1822). Wirhout wrappers as ectracted from "The Quarterly Journal of Science and the Arts. (The Royal Institution of Great Britain)", vol. IX, X, XI, XII, XIII.

First English translation of Olber's famous work on the orbits of comets."In 1796 Olbers discovered a Comet and calculated its parabolic orbit with a new method, simpler than that used by Laplace. In a letter to F.X. von Zach.Olbers asked whether his treatise on this method shouild be printed, and if so, how this could be done. After reading the tratise and using it with excellent results to compute the orbit of the comet of 1779, which had presented great difficulties to many astronomers, von Zach decided to see it through the press himself. It appeared in Weimar in 1797 under the title "Über die leichteste und bequemste Methode, die Bahn eines Kometen aus einigen Beobachtungen zu berechnen" This work immediately established Olbers among the formost astronomers of his time, and his method was used tyhroughout the nineteenth century."(DSB X, p. 198).

Very good; tiny wormhole not impacting printed image, else excellent. Size 13.5 x 8 Inches. This elegant and important 1668 celestial chart depicts the motions of comets observed in 1664 and 1665. The sheet was included in the first volume of Stanislaw Lubieniecki's Theatrum Cometicum , which expounded on the history of observed comets beginning from those mentioned in the Bible and including the detailed accounts of the comets observed by himself, and the European scientific community, in 1664 and 1665. This chart - A table of observations of the winter comets of 1664 and 1665, by the most eminent and distinguished man, D. Joan Hevelius, showing that they were certain against the accounts of the most distinguished man, Auzutij. - captures what was then an international scientific controversy between the Polish astronomer Johann Hevelius (1611 - 1687) and the French astronomer Adrien Auzout (1622 - 1691). A Closer Look This chart, engraved in Amsterdam by Daniel Stoopendaal, delineates seven separate scholars' tracks of a 1664 comet observed between January and March of that year. The tracks are marked with the dates of observation. Stars are included to show the comets' position in the night sky. An inset shows the comet's track in conjunction with the constellation Aries, which is depicted pictorially as a lamb. The Hevelius-Azout Controversy Lubieniecki's celestial captures the efforts of astronomer Johann Hevelius to overcome a controversy that had erupted between him and the French mathematician and astronomer Adrien Azout. The nature and movement of comets were not yet understood in the 17th century - many still agreed with Kepler that comets moved in a straight line. There were insufficient accurate observations, and scholars had yet to establish any theory with which to digest new ones. Entering the scholarly arena, Frenchman Adrien Auzout published his predictions of the movements of the comets of 1664 and 1665 based on his hypothesis that comets moved in large, circular orbits; he appealed to the scientific community to provide observations to either support or refute his predictions. Gdansk's Hevelius correctly concluded that his observations of the comet disproved Auzout's hypothesized circular orbit. Unfortunately, Hevelius' own published observations contained errors in the position of the comet, which Auzout singled out to discredit the whole of Hevelius' critique. Many scholars joined Auzout in harping on the issue of one erroneous observation rather than Hevelius' attempts to validate a hypothesis of comets' parabolic orbits. The present sheet summarizes Hevelius' response, which was to compare Auzout's predictions not only with his own observation but also those of French scholar Pierre Petit (1630 - 1677,) the Jesuit Francois Gottignies (1630 - 1689) and Swedish scientist Olof Rudbeck (1630 - 1702). Hevelius thus established that his observations were consistent with those of other European scholars and gave authority to the idea of comets' parabolic motion. Publication History and Census This sheet was engraved in 1668 by Daniel Stoopendaal for inclusion in Stanislaw Lubieniecki's Theatrum Cometicum . The book is reasonably well represented in institutional collections, but we see no separate examples of Stoopendaal's engraving in OCLC or in the trade.
