New York and London: D. Van Nostrand Company and Sampson Low, Marston & Company, Limited, 1894. First Edition. Cloth. Good. First Edition. ix, [1 blank], 322 pages. Original blue cloth. 8vo. Original brown glossy endpapers offsetting to title page and rear endpapers (browning overall). Front hinge reglued. Corners bumped, minor creasing to boards. Clean internally otherwise, a good reading or reference copy of an early book on the subject. Cloth. "Photometry is the science of the measurement of light, in terms of its perceived brightness to the human eye. It is distinct from radiometry, which is the science of measurement of radiant energy (including light) in terms of absolute power. In modern photometry, the radiant power at each wavelength is weighted by a luminosity function that models human brightness sensitivity. Typically, this weighting function is the photopic sensitivity function, although the scotopic function or other functions may also be applied in the same way." (from Wikipedia).

The upper board with a cutout volvelle in a circular form attached to the rear book board with a metal rivet. Upper board with affixed lithograph to both inner volvelle and outer remainder, showing scales, decorative elements, and imprint information. 1/4 inch gilded leather trim affixed to the edges, and holding the pair of boards together (also likely glued in the area without the volvelle).

Scuffed and with uniform minor wear. Leather trim is worn with some loss. The recessed metal 'button' insert usually present in the volvelle for turning is lacking, leaving a 5/16 inch blank cutout which serves the same purpose. The volvelle is warped away from the plane of the base…

SIGNED by author Manasek on the title page. Upper corner tip bumped. Cloth. Here is a book that has been underestimated in the marketplace. Not only are the illustrations very useful to the collector, dealer, and historian, but the authors have made a strong attempt to place the instruments in a historical context. Usually we have to pick between a picture book and a scholarly word-play when choosing scientific instrument books. Here we have both, a tribute to the authors.
