OTD in 54 CE, Emperor Claudius of Rome was allegedly poisoned by his adopted son and successor, Nero. Just in case, read up on methods of detection with “A treatise on adulterations of food and culinary poisons: exhibiting the fraudulent sophistications of bread, beer, wine, spirituous liquors, tea, coffee, cream, confectionery, vinegar, mustard, pepper, cheese, olive oil, pickles and other articles employed in domestic economy; and methods of detecting them”. This treatise was written by Friedrich Christian Accum and published in 1820.

THE GEM OF THE SEASON New York: Leavitt & Allen, 1856. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Item #164463 Good, deluxe Mother of Pearl inlay binding. Bound in black lacquered papier mache covers with front cover inlaid with mother of pearl. Has 10 plates called for, but lacks illuminated presentation plate. Chip on edge of rear boards, front hinge tender. The style of deluxe inlaid gift bindings was a short lived phenomenon, ranging from the 1830s through the mid 1850's. The papier mache bindings with the mother of pearl inlays were expensive to produce, and after the public's taste changed in the 1870s, they were rarely produced. Expensive at the outset, and fragile comparatively few examples of this type of binding have survived. #gems #thegemoftheseason #bookcollector #bookcollection #antiquarian #antiquarianbook #antiquarianbooks #bookshelf #bookporn #bibliophile #coolbooks #rarebook #rarebooks #beautifulbook #beautifulbooks #firstedition #personallibrary #rarebookcellar #bookseller #bookcollecting #oldbooks #rarebooksofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CgjkZGjLv55/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
