Speeches by John Bright M.P. Two Volumes.

Speeches on Questions of public policy by John right M.P. edited by James E. Thorold Rogers.

Macmillan and Co. London 1868.

Written on the inside first page in pencil : 'Sealskin binding by Zaehnsdorf & kept by him until he retired from business as a sample. Bought by me from Zaehnsdorf'.

Both books signed in gold leaf 'Bound by Zaehnsdorf'.

Established circa 1842 by Jospeh Zaehnsdorf (1816-1886), the Zaehnsdorf Bindery operated under the control of the Zaehnsdorf family until 1947, in that time producing some of the finest examples of bookbinding in London. Austria-Hungarin born Joseph Zaehnsdorf worked in binderies in Stuttgart and Vienna, before arriving in London, where he gained a prestigious position with James Mackenzie, Bookbinder to the King. In 1842 Zaehnsdorf opened his own shop, which by the 1860s was regarded as one of the finest in London, alongside the celebrated firm of Robert Riviere.
