With 25 aquatint plates, mostly in sepia), 1 engr. map, and 24 larger vignettes in the text, engraved by F. Hegi, a.o., after M. Usteri. 4to. Contemp. half cloth, orig. upper wrappers bound in. Zurich, n. pr., 1808-32. Complete set of the new series of these rare "New Year's Gifts", dedicated exclusively to Swiss Spas and mineral springs at the beginning of the 19th century. The "Gesellschaft zum Schwarzen Garten", a society of barber-surgeons, dates back to the year 1491, and is a precursor of the present Physicians' Association of the Canton Zurich. The edition of the "Neujahrsstücke" was started in 1785, but interrupted by the Napoleonic wars from 1799 until 1803. In 1807 the old society was dissolved but immediately reconstituted. Since then the New Year's Gifts were adorned with much more attractive illustrations. The splendid plates and the vignettes, most of them in sepia, were engraved until 1827 by the Zurich artist Franz Hegi (1774-1850), and later by Franz Weiss and Hans Jakob Kull. They show Baden (3), St. Moritz (mineral spring), Fideris, Jenaz, Stachelberg, Gurnigel near Bern (2), Weissenburg, Lostorf promenade (double-page), the Töss valley and the village of Töss, Gyrenbad near Hinwil, Blumenstein in Canton of Bern, Nydelbad with a view of the upper part of Lake Zurich, Andeer, the Prättigau with Turnau, Castels, and the asylum Spannweid in Zurich Unterstrass.- A fine copy with all original front wrappers preserved. - Lonchamp 2198; Appenzeller 1106-1145; Horner, Gesch. d.
