Large folio-sized presentation album framing lithographed and hand-painted illuminated manuscript address, 435 x 315 mm, ink and watercolour, two large initials gilt with red and blue foliate decoration, and initials alternating red and blue, with moiré silk doublure, by Charles Troedel; dark tan grained morocco with four perforated brass corner fittings and a medallion metal centerpiece. This handsome illuminated address was commissioned by the Deutscher Verein or German Association of Victoria on behalf of the German population of "we Germans who live abroad", to pay homage to the "Iron Chancellor", Otto von Bismarck, on his 70th birthday (on the 1st April 1885) and to honour fifty years "in service of the Fatherland". Dedicated to His Highness Prince Otto von Bismarck, the address is signed by Hermann William Puttmann (1840-1914), as President of the Association and by the Secretary Ernest Hartung. Puttmann was son of the émigré publisher and man of letters Hermann Puttmann who had founded numbers of short-lived journals and newspapers (most notably he published an account of Burke's expedition Geschichte der Victorianischen Expedition zur Erforschung Australien's unter Burke's Leitung, 1862). The most long-lasting of these (continued by his son) Püttmann's Australischer Kalender, was a "strange mixture of liberalism and German as well as Australian patriotism"[ADB]. Such influences are evident in the proud patriotism in the words of the address. As well as citing a couplet from Goethe's Faust in honour of the Chancellor ("Not even endless aeons can efface/The trace of [your] terrestrial days"), Puttmann alludes to Australia as new "cultural ground for independent German life.to bloom". Lithographed (and signed) by the eminent Melbourne printer and lithographer Charles Troedel, this address is a testament to the rich cultural life of the German population and the skill of Colonial printers. . Provenance: From the Estate of Otto von Bismarck (the "Iron Chancellor", 1815-1898). Light spotting to the certificate and moiré silk doublure; well preserved in fine condition.

Melbourne : J. C. W. Nicholson, [1874]. Folio (345 x 250 mm), disbound, pictorial wrappers with a striking front cover design lithographed by Charles Troedel; 5 pp music notation (arrangement for piano); scattered foxing, else a fine copy. Published in Melbourne in July 1874 by Nicholson, Plock's Little Footsteps galop was described by one newspaper of the time as being 'the adaptation of a well-known air to dancing purposes' (Ballarat Star, 14 July 1874). Melbourne orchestra leader and composer Herr Adolph Plock was the arranger. The sheet music was available from the publisher's shop in Collins Street East, and also from the Ballarat music seller J. Harrison, at 137 Sturt Street. The Ballarat Star reviewer (ibid.) opined that the music was 'tastefully printed': small wonder, as it was designed and lithographed by the experienced and talented Charles Troedel, Nicholson's long-term collaborator. A scarce and beautifully lithographed piece of Melbourne sheet music. Trove locates two copies in Australian collections (NLA; SLV).

[Drop title]. [Melbourne : Charles Troedel, 1869]. Souvenir programme printed in purple on cream silk, bifolium, 200 x 140 mm, a bifolium printed on two of [4] sides, stitched at left edge and opening to reveal the third side containing the programme itself, headed 'Grand Vice-Regal Command Night'; extremely well preserved; accompanied by two typed letters, the first on the letterhead of the State Library of Victoria, dated 13 December 1972 and signed by the Principal Librarian T. A. Kealy, addressed to the broadside's former owner, containing information regarding the precise date of the broadside, Weston's New Opera House, and the printer Charles Troedel; the second from four months earlier addressed to the same owner from W. T Cations, Deputy Liaison Officer for the National Library of Australia at the Australian High Commission in London, recommending that he contact the National Library of Australia or the State Library of Victoria in relation to his silk broadside. A rare piece of Melbourne theatre ephemera, this silk souvenir was printed by Melbourne's leading printer Charles Troedel for a special evening of entertainments presented by Weston and Hussey's minstrel troupe, almost certainly for the performance given on Friday 23 July 1869, which was announced in a notice in the Argus newspaper the preceding day as a 'Grand Vice-Regal Command Night'. On the day of the performance, the Herald newspaper advised readers: 'This evening avice-regal visit will be made to this popularplace of amazement. A special programmehas been prepared for the occasion'. Silk souvenirs such as this were never intended for the general public; they were prestigious keepsakes reserved for the Vice-Regal party and high-society patrons. 'Weston's New Opera House in Bourke Street, Melbourne, was opened on 31 May 1869, when Weston and Hussey's Minstrels appeared, probably for the first time in Melbourne. [This silk] programme would appear to be that for the performance given on Friday 23 July 1869, under the patronage of Lady Manners Sutton (wife of the Governor of Victoria). The complete details of the programme are not given in the newspaper advertisement, but the "Ghost in a Pawnshop" was one item on the programme, and it was advertised that "General Sherman's March to the Sea" would be performed for the first time on the following night (i.e. 24 July 1869) which is supported by the notice at the foot of your programme. H. Peachman is named as the agent at the foot of the advertisement as in your programme. The programme was printed by Charles Troedel, a young lithographic printer, who had come to Melbourne from Europe in 1860, and had set up in business for himself three years later. He gained a fine reputation for the quality of his lithographic work. As Mr. Cations mentioned in respect to the National Library in Canberra, the La Trobe Library is also anxious to acquire any kind of material which documents in particular the history of the city of Melbourne and the State of Victoria, including that relating to theatre, of which the Library already has a very considerable collection.'(Letter of T. A. Kealy to E. W. Lemberger, Leamington Spa, UK, dated 13 December 1972).
