In den WarenkorbCloth, paper label with engraving on front board, 8vo, 24 cm, 45 pp, ills, 1 folding facsimile, 1 map. A part-facsimile of, and commentary on, an interesting letter concerning Venice and the cotton trade, written in 1425 by a commercial agent to his principal. From the Summary of the letter: "Angelo Gabriel informs Laurenzio Dol…fìn about the situation in Syria, where he has decided to stay for the winter with a view to await the outcome of the cotton harvest and to'get the best prices for raw cotton arid cotton yarn in Tripoli, Laodicea (presently Latakia) and Amman. On his arrival in Beirut from Venice on September 9th, he hired a cargo-vessel, together with Marco Capelo, to transport cloth arid other materials to Tripoli. After arriving there on September 13th, he hired another vessel, as he had bartered three bags of finished cotton for 'sennini' cotton* at a value of 800 ducats per bag and for cloth worth 700 ducats. However, he could not load the merchandise on that ship for lack of space. (The other ships were all sailing to Laodicea.) Only through the intervention of die Venetian official in Tripoli. Piero Manolo, was he able to arrange for the merchandise to be transported.As everybody is busy harvesting new cotton, there is riot enough cotton yam available on the market. Venetian merchants had bought medium quality cotton for 27-30 ducats per roll which induced Arab merchants to buy large quantities for 18-24 ducats per roll hoping to sell the merchandise to other Venetians, who were expected to arrive within a few days. According to Gabriel, only a slight delay in the arrival of these ships would ruin the Arab 'speculators'." ".
