About 230 paper items, printed and handwritten, from the estate of one of the founding members of the Soncino Society, Hermann Meyer Berlin and other places, first half of 20th century (mostly from 1920s-30s). German, some English and Hebrew. The collections contains: About 120 paper-items related to the Soncino Society of Friends of the Hebrew Book and to Hebrew bibliophilia, among them: * Two original sketches for the society's symbol, painted in ink on thick paper - an illustration of a turret surrounded by the society's name (two different sketches). * Original sketch for a title page of the periodical "Soncino Blätter" (Soncino Leaves), issue no. 1, painted in ink on thick paper. Written on the bottom: "Dassel Weil". * Soncino-Gesellschaft, Hebräisch von Marcus Behmer [Soncino Society, Hebrew letters by Marcus Behmer]. 12 copies (out of twenty five copies) of sample prints for a font designed by Marcus Behmner for the Society. Each print includes the letters of the Aleph Beth, vowelization marks and punctuation. * Zur Ersten Geburtstagsfeier der Soncino-Gesselschaft [For the first birthday of the Soncino Society], a poem (ten stanzas), printed on a long leaf designed as a scroll. At the end appears a "colophon" with the title and printing details. Printed by Otto v. Solten, Berlin, 1925, in 150 copies. * Beglaubigte Abschrift aus dem Vereins-register, Nr. 4221 [Authorized copy from the Registrar of Associations no. 4221], a document, typewritten on an official form, on behalf of the District Court in Berlin, indicating that the Soncino Society was registered by the German Registrar of Associations. Issued on 28.12.1929. * Thirteen typewritten drafts of essays, with comments written by hand, sent to Meyer by scholars and bibliographers, among them: Cecil Roth, Moshe David Cassuto, Aharon Freiman, Alexander Marx and others. Most are about Hebrew manuscripts, history of printing and bibliography. * Invitations and ephemera items, printed for evenings and events on behalf of the Soncino Society (some illustrated); tens of booklets, proof prints and proofreading leaves of essays printed in "Soncino Blätter"; three illustrated menus for dinners held in Meyer's home; bookplates for the collection of Moses Mendelssohn and for the "Universitas" bookstore; two folded greeting cards (large) printed on behalf of "Universitas" (on each one is a print of the store's logo and a print colored by hand); and more. About 110 personal paper items that belonged to Hermann Meyer among them: twenty five cards with a print by Marcus Behmer (most of them signed in pencil), in honor of the engagement of Meyer and Elsa Rosenkrantz; tens of photographs, genealogic charts, letters and documents related to Meyer's parents and family; as well as photographs, letters, greeting cards and other paper items from Meyer's lifetime. Some of the items are pasted on paper leaves and arranged in filing folders, with comments written by hand. Size and condition vary. Good overall condition. Provenance: Collection of Hermann Meyer and his daughter Channah Sapir.
