80/2673 [Sciences]. Ziedses des Plantes, Bernard George (1902-1993). AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED to "Geachte Heer Vlug", dated "18 Febr. 1992", blue ballpoint, 3 lvs. (1st leaf w. printed letterhead "Prof. Dr. B.G. Ziedses des Plantes (...) Bloemendaal (...)", 3p.

= Bernard George Ziedses des Plantes was trained as specialist in nervous diseases, but his lifelong passion was to improve X-ray imaging of living tissues. In the 1930s he not only built the first machine for planigraphy, in which the X-ray tube and the film moved together around the plane of interest, but he also designed the subtraction method to improve images after injection of contrast agents. Eventually a full-time radiologist, he also developed the 'somersault' technique of ventriculography and pioneered isotope scintigraphy. (source: www.researchgate.net).

In this letter, that accompanied the signature card below, Ziedses des Plantes writes about the way he got the idea for developing the machine for planigraphy and explaining the way it works (lacks the addenda with figures to which he refers). "(...) Ik kwam op het denkbeeld in mijn eerste jaar van medische studie 1921-22. (...) Onze docent in de radiologie zag er niets is. Ik heb er toen enige tijd niets aan gedaan. Pas in 1928 toen ik als arts was afgestudeerd ben ik met de bouw van een toestel begonnen. In 1931 kon ik de eerste resultaten publiceren. (...) Bartelink radioloog in Wageningen was de enige die ook tot toepassing en vroege publicatie is gekomen. Bijna gelijktijdig. We waren beiden onwetend van elkaars werk en van de bestaande octrooischriften. De radiographische subtractie heb ik in 1933 uitgevonden en in 1934 gepubliceerd (...)".

80/2683 [Zeeland]. Michielzen, M. (±1630-1684) (attrib.). (Burlesque Notulen:) "De Vergadering van de Staten van Zeeland, Den 13 Junij 1676. (...) 1 Januarij 1684." Manuscript on paper, pen and ink in Dutch, second half 18th cent., 123p., contemp. vellum, folio.

- First and final blank lvs. sl. foxed/ soiled. A good/ fine copy written in a neat hand.

= One of several transcripts of Michielse's famous (but unpublished) so-called "Burlesque Notulen", humorous notes written while attending the often boring meetings of the Staten van Zeeland. The work starts off with the following couplet: "Ik schrijf een coddig Rijm, voor al die 't willen Lezen; Wat dat de Wereld is, of watze schijnd te Wezen; Hoe alle soort van volk, word bij de Neus geleijt, Door Eygenbaat en List, tot slaafsze dienstbaarheijt." The first entry (13 June 1676) begins with the lines: "Zoo dra d'Eerst' Edele was gekomen, Heeft men terstond een Boo vernomen; Die zey dat men op zaturdag, De staten te gemoete zag." Usually the works starts on 13 January, but perhaps in this case the date of 13 June is a mistake by the copyist. Numerous local events, disputes, intrigues etc. are elaborated upon. On Michielse see Nagtglas III, p.170-172.
