‎D. W. Rundqvist et al. Large and super-large deposits of ore minerals. In three volumes. (4 books complete set) In Russian (ask us if in doubt)/Rundkvist D. V. i dr. Krupnye i superkrupnye mestorozhdeniya rudnykh poleznykh iskopaemykh. V trekh tomakh. (4 knigi polnyy komplekt). Short description: In Russian (ask us if in doubt).The development of the theory of metallogenic analysis which began in the 1960-70 s of the twentieth century has allowed us to move from forecasting the relevant prospective territories to estimating their potential resources in quantitative terms. On the other hand the methods now adopted allow us to improve the criteria for estimating the regions of interest and the global generalization of data on natural resources reserves and mineral extraction carried out in the United States Canada Australia and France convincingly demonstrates that almost all raw material reserves are based on such giant deposits. We have thousands of titles and often several copies of each title may be available. Please feel free to contact us for a detailed description of the copies available. SKUalb74c54b7574ab22b3‎

The letter is signed in holograph by cardinal Cicognani and was received at the office of Najeeb Elias Halaby ( 1915 - 2003). Album bound in full red leather, with large gilt title on front cover, with the papal coart of arms, kept in a similar slipcase. A fine copy. Unique album which illustrates the famous visit of the pope to Istanbul where he met patriarch Athenagoras for the second time. (2 pictures). The album was most probably made by the Rome office of Pan Am to be presented at the Vatican. This is probably a spare copy which ended up in the office of the future CEO N. Halaby ( a letter adressed to him by the Vatican, is inserted). A full account of the flight can be found in : Alejo Nicolas Larocca '' My Pan Am Story - forty years as a stewardess with the world's most experienced airline'' pp.170-177. The author , chief stewardess, is also depicted on two photographs.‎

‎".: Northern Italy (?); 15th c. (?), size of the leaf : 73,5 x 52,5 cm. Square musical notation on six 4-line staves, with interlinear text in a rounded gothic hand. The floral extension painted in yellow, blue and green, contains a bird and grapes depicted between flowers and stems. The large initial ''L'' ( 10,5 x 10,5 cm)painted in red is illustrated with a bishop holding a crook. The text ''...ps. Benedixisti, [Domine] terram tuam : avertisti captivitatem Jacob gloria grad libertate...'' is used in the Annonciation mass in the Roman Catholic Church. The lower text part : '' Liberati nos domine ex afflictionibus nos et eos qui nos oderunt confudiste'' is a Psalm 43 citation. The verso of the leaf is numbered 84 in large red numbers. The leaf is very well preserved allthough some of the lettering shows some small holes due to ink corrosion. ( This does not harm the general fine outlook). A very large and handsome leaf of great visual beauty."‎
