Good readable/working copy.; Catalogue from the exhibition held June 15 - 17 1992 in Celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Sir Percival David and the 40th Anniversary of the Opening of the Percival David Foundation.; "In this year of anniversaries for the Percival David Foundation it seemed appropriate that the Percival David Colloquy on Art and Archaeology in Asia should be devoted to a topic of particular relevance to the Foundation's own collection. Since well over half the ceramics in the collection were made at China's main porcelain producing centre, Jingdezhen in Jiangxi province, the wares from these kilns provide the subject for this colloquy. The Jingdezhen in kilns themselves and their products have provided some of the most fascinating archaeological finds in the People's Republica of China in recent years, and we were fortunate to have two speakers from China with first-hand knowledge of this important excavated material. Other contributors pursued a range of topics including technological developments, the organization of the kilns, the significance of ceremonial wares, specific decorative motifs, their origins and evolution, archaism, trading networks, the wares made for particular markets, and the influence of missionaires." excerpt from the foreword by Rosemary E. Scott, Curator, March 1993.…

Five galley-proofs of articles written during the high-point of the Raj by leading Victorian journalist in India W. Martin Wood (editor of the Times of India, founder and editor of the Bombay Review). Ephemeral items, creased and worn, but with text clear and entire. ONE: Headed 'ALLEN'S INDIAN MAIL / THE LATE MR. EDWARD BROOME, C.E. / Mr. M. Martin Wood writes to us as follows: -'. Sixty-two lines in small print follow, beginning: 'Some little time back your "Domestic Occurrences" contained the name of Mr. Edward Broome, Civil Engineer, as having died at Southport, something under 60 years of age. It struck me then that a note of Mr. Broome's quiet work in India ought to be made'. TWO: Annotated at head by Wood, 'India Sep 16th. [1902]'. Sixty-eight lines of small print. Three sections, concerning drought 'in Gujerat and the Deccan'. The first begins: 'An esteemed correspondent writes: Telegrams from India, during the last few weeks, have told us very little about the suspension, and, in certain districts, what almost threatens failure of the later monsoon rains.' The second starts: 'But this passive creed is nto that of their masters from the West'. The third: 'Meantime, what has become of the Scott-Moncrieff comprehensive Water-Supply and Irrigation Report?' THREE: Headed 'INDIA'S CHRONIC DEFICIT. / [FROM AN ANGLO-INDIAN CORRESPONDENT.] Annotated by Wood at head: 'From India Feb. 13th. 03'.

Eighty-one lines in small print. FIVE: Headed 'Reprinted from "INDIA," August 16, 1901. / INDIAN LOANS GUARANTEE. / AN EMERGENT ILLUSTRATION. / (BY AN ANGLO-INDIAN.)' Beginning 'The miscarriage of the proposed Indian sterling loan of £3,000,000 last month must have recalled attention to the often pressed, always postponed demand for a British Treasury guarantee in support of the public debt of India.' Sixty-five lines of small print.…
