[TOP] THE VALLEY OF ANDORRA IN THE PYRENEES. A SEQUESTERED MOUNTAIN REPUBLIC. [LOWER] TOWN AN CASTLE OF FOIX (IN FRANCE), ANCIENTLY HOLDING THE LORDSHIP OF ANDORRA. SOURCE WIKIPEDIA: Roger-Bernard III (1243 – 3 March 1302) was the Count of Foix from 1265 to his death. Perhaps the most lasting of Roger-Bernard's policies was his diplomatic agreement with the bishop of Urgell concerning the possession of Andorra, a small montane territory with a long history of quarrels over its lordship between bishop and count. On 8 September 1278, after long negotiations, the count and the bishop concluded a paréage, a form of condominium, over the disputed country. Though slightly modified a little later (the same year), the paréage remains the governing system of Andorra to this day, though the office of Count of Foix has devolved to the Presidency of France since that time.

VIEW OF HEDGES & BUTLER'S WINE CELLARS, REGENT STREET. LONDON. An attractive montage of wine vintage scenes, from the grape harvest to bottling, views of The Rhine, Madeira, Oporto and the cellars. [Wine is an alcoholic beverage typically made of fermented grape juice. The natural chemical balance of grapes is such that they can ferment without the addition of sugars, acids, enzymes or other nutrients. Wine is produced by fermenting crushed grapes using various types of yeast. Yeast consumes the sugars found in the grapes and converts them into alcohol. Different varieties of grapes and strains of yeasts are used depending on the type of wine being produced. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	SINGLE PAGE
BUYING THE CHRISTMAS TURKEYS IN THE MARKET AT MALAGA. SPAIN. A good interest engraving. Artist: E. Buckman. Poultry.

Malaga, together with the Rincón de la Victoria, Torremolinos, Benalmádena, Fuengirola and Alhaurín de la Torre creating a urban area named Greater Málaga populated by 824,842 in 561,71km2 (density 1468hab/km2). The population of the metropolitan area (urban area plus satellite towns) is 1.100.082, ranking as the fifth largest metropolitan area in Spain. Málaga is surrounded by mountains, lying in the southern base of the Axarquía hills, and two rivers, the Guadalmedina - the historic center is located on its left bank - and the Guadalhorce, which flows west of the city into the Mediterranean. The inner city of Málaga is just behind the harbour. The quarters of El Perchel, La Trinidad and Lagunillas surround this centre. The city has much revenue from the agricultural sector and from tourism. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	SINGLE PAGE

A CONFERENCE OF HORNED OWLS: 'THREE HEADS ARE BETTER THAN ONE'. Artist A. F. Lydon. Birds. [The Strigiformes (Owls) are an order of birds of prey, comprising 200 extant species. Most are solitary, and nocturnal, with some exceptions (e.g. the Burrowing Owl). Owls mostly hunt small mammals, insects, and other birds, though a few species specialize in hunting fish. They are found in all regions of the Earth except Antarctica, most of Greenland, and some remote islands. Though owls are typically solitary, the literary collective noun for a group of owls is a parliament, which contrasts with the word Conference used as the tile to this picture. The living owls are divided into two families, the typical owls, Strigidae, and the barn-owls, Tytonidae. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	SINGLE PAGE
TYPES OF THE FRENCH ARMY. Chasseurs a pied. Artist A. de Neuville. [The name Chasseurs à pied (light infantry) was originally used for infantry units in the French Army recruited from hunters or woodsmen. Recognized for their marksmanship and skirmishing skills, the chasseurs were comparable to the German Jäger or the British light infantry. The Chasseurs à Pied, as the marksmen of the French army, were regarded as elite light companies and regiments. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	SINGLE PAGE
BATTLESHIP OF THE 'ADMIRAL' CLASS IN HEAVY SEAS. Artist I. R. Wells. [A battleship is a large, heavily armored warship with a main battery consisting of the largest calibre of guns. Battleships were larger, better armed, and better armoured than cruisers and destroyers. Battleship design continually evolved to incorporate and adapt technological advances to maintain an edge. The word battleship was coined around 1794 and is a shortened form of line-of-battle ship, the dominant wooden warship during the Age of Sail.[1] The term came into formal use in the late 1880s to describe a type of ironclad warship,[2] now referred to as pre-dreadnought battleships. In 1906, the launch of HMS Dreadnought heralded a revolution in battleship design. Following battleship designs that were influenced by the HMS Dreadnought were referred to as "dreadnoughts".

THE 'ANALYST' COMPARING THE FLESH FORMING INGREDIENTS IN COCOA…'. Advertisement for Cadbury's Cocoa. Note the Chemist using Microscope on the desk. [In 1824, John Cadbury began vending tea, coffee, and (later) chocolate at Bull Street in Birmingham in the UK and sometimes in India. The company was later known as "Cadbury Brothers Limited". After John Cadbury's retirement, his sons, Richard and George, opened a major new factory at Bournville, five miles south of the city. In 1893, George Cadbury bought 120 acres (0.5 km²) of land close to the works and planned, at his own expense, a model village which would 'alleviate the evils of modern more cramped living conditions'. By 1900 the estate included 313 cottages and houses set on 330 acres (1.3 km²) of land. As the Cadbury family were Quakers there were no Public houses in the estate; in fact, it was their Quaker beliefs that first led them to sell tea, coffee and cocoa as alternatives to alcohol. After World War I, Cadbury Brothers Limited undertook a financial merger with J. S. Fry & Sons Limited, another chocolate manufacturer. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	SINGLE PAGE

SELLING FISH ON THE BEACH. HASTINGS. Artist: C. J. Staniland. An auction of freshly landed fish. [There is evidence of prehistoric settlements at the site of the town: flint arrowheads and Bronze Age artefacts have been found; Iron Age forts have been excavated on both the East and West Hills suggests an early move to the safety of the valley in between, so that the settlement was already a port when the Romans arrived in Britain for the first time in 55 BC. At this time they began to exploit the iron (Wealden rocks provide a plentiful supply of the ore), and so the port was useful to them. One of the many local sites where the iron was worked at Beauport Park, to the north of the town, which employed up to one thousand men and is considered to have been the third largest in the Roman Empire.[4] With the departure of the Romans the town suffered setbacks. The Beauport site had been abandoned; and natural and man-made attacks began. The Sussex coast has always suffered from occasional violent storms; with the additional hazard of longshore drift (the eastward movement of shingle along the coast) the coastline has been frequently changing. The original Roman port could now well be under the sea.[5] Man-made attacks possibly included the Danish invaders, with their harbour in the west of the borough. Bulverhythe, where its original site is conjectured, suggests that: -hythe or hithe means a port or small haven.[6] A royal mint in Hastings was established in AD 928 during the reign of Athelstan.

WILLIAM III AND HIS DUTCH COURTIERS IN THE SMOKING PAVILION OF HIS PLEASURE HOUSE BY THE RIVER. (Hampton Court). [Hampton Court Palace is a royal palace in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames in south west London; it has not been lived in by the British royal family since the 18th century. The palace is located 11.7 miles (18.8 km) south west of Charing Cross and upstream of Central London on the River Thames. It was originally built for Cardinal Wolsey, a favourite of King Henry VIII, circa 1514; in 1529, as Wolsey fell from favour, the palace was passed to the King, who enlarged it. The following century, William III's massive rebuilding and expansion project intended to rival Versailles was begun.[1] Work halted in 1694, leaving the palace in two distinct contrasting architectural styles, domestic Tudor and Baroque. While the palace's styles are an accident of fate, a unity exists due to the use of pink bricks and an, albeit vague, symmetrical balancing of successive low wings.[2] Today, the palace is open to the public, and is a major tourist attraction. The palace's impressive Tudor Base Court is home to the annual Hampton Court Palace Festival whilst the beautiful Home Park is the site of the annual Hampton Court Palace Flower Show. Along with St. James's Palace, it is one of only two surviving palaces out of the many owned by Henry VIII, although some of his castles do also remain, for example, the Tower of London and Dover Castle, to name just two. Hampton Court Palace is reserved as a very popular and representational landmark of South-East England. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	DOUBLE PAGE
PETERBOROUGH FOXHOUND SHOW - BWEFORE THE JUDGES. A splendid large picture with huntsmen in traditional dress. Artist: John Charlton. [Present-day Peterborough is the latest in a series of settlements which have at one time or other benefited from its situation, where the Nene leaves permanently drained land for the Fens. Remains of Bronze Age settlement and what is thought to be religious activity can be seen at the Flag Fen archaeological site to the east of the city centre. The Romans established a fortified garrison town at Durobrivae on Ermine Street, some five miles (8 km) to the west of the present city, around the middle of the first century AD. Durobrivae's earliest appearance among surviving records is in the Antonine Itinerary of the late second century. There was also a large first century Roman fort at Longthorpe, designed to house half a legion, or about 3,000 soldiers; it may have been established as early as around AD 44–48. Peterborough was an important area of ceramic production in the Roman period, providing Nene Valley Ware that was traded as far away as Cornwall and the Antonine Wall. Peterborough is shown by its original name Medeshamstede to have possibly been an Anglian settlement before AD 655, when an individual named Saxwulf founded a monastery on land granted to him for that purpose by Peada of Mercia, who was briefly ruler of the Middle Angles. The Peterborough Chronicle, which contains unique information about the history of England after the Norman Conquest, was composed here in the twelfth century by monks of the abbey. This is the only known prose history in English between the conquest and the later fourteenth century. The town's name changed to Burgh from the late tenth century, possibly after Abbot Kenulf had built a defensive wall around the abbey, and eventually developed into the form Peterborough; the town does not appear to have been a borough until the twelfth century. The form Gildenburgh is also found, though only in local, twelfth century histories of the abbey, namely the Peterborough version of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and a history of the abbey by the monk Hugh Candidus. The burgesses received their first charter from "Abbot Robert" — probably Robert of Sutton (1262–1273). Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	DOUBLE PAGE
THE LORD MAYOR TAKING THE OATH IN THE COURT OF THE LORD CHIEF JUSTICE. Fine large print, with ceremonial dress being worn. Artist: Sidney P. Hall. [The Right Honourable Lord Mayor of London is the legal title for the Mayor of (and head of) the City of London Corporation. The Lord Mayor of London is to be distinguished from the Mayor of London; the former is an officer only of the City of London, while the Mayor of London is the Mayor of Greater London and as such governs a much larger area. Within the City of London, the Lord Mayor has precedence over other individuals and has various special powers, rights and privileges. Wikipedia]	View Image	1890	DOUBLE PAGE
RUGBY FOOTBALL - THE UNIVSERITIES v LONDON AND THE SOUTH AT RICHMOND. An excellent double page, one of the earliest engravings of Rugger. Scare: From the Illustrated Sporting & Dramatic News. [A ball-game resembling rugby football was a game played by ancient Greeks called episkuros (Greek: επίσκυρος). In Wales such a sport is called cnapan or "criapan," and has medieval roots. The old Irish predecessor of rugby may be caid. The Cornish called it "hurling to goals" which dates back to the bronze age, the West country called it "hurling over country" (neither should to be confused with Gaelic hurling in which the ball is hit with a stick called a hurley or hurl, not carried), East Anglians "Campball", the French "La Soule" or "Chole" (a rough-and-tumble cross-country game). English villages were certainly playing games of 'fute ball' during the 1100s. English boarding schools would certainly have developed their own variants of this game as soon as they were established - the Eton Wall Game being one example. The invention of 'Rugby' was therefore not the act of playing early forms of the game at Rugby School or elsewhere but rather the events which led up to its codification. The game of football which was played at Rugby School between 1750 and 1859 permitted handling of the ball, but no-one was allowed to run with it in their hands towards the opposition's goal. There was no fixed limit to the number of players per side and sometimes there were hundreds taking part in a kind of enormous rolling maul. The innovation of running with the ball was introduced some time between 1859 and 1865. William Webb Ellis has been credited with breaking the local rules by running forwards with the ball in a game in 1823. Shortly after this the Victorian mind turned to establishing written rules for the sports which had earlier just involved local agreements, and boys from Rugby School produced the first written rules for their version of the sport in 1870. Around this time the influence of Dr Thomas Arnold, Rugby's headmaster, was beginning to be felt around all the other boarding schools, and his emphasis on sport as part of a balanced education naturally encouraged the general adoption of the Rugby rules across the country, and, ultimately, the world.
