Ferrando, in black ink and blue colouring (“Planimetria di parte della regione Valoja presso il trucco di San Martino”), with annotations and sketches of the buildings and water-channels, 1 page, large oblong folio (c.53 x 83cm), Turin, 27 July 1872 3) A pencil sketch of the buildings at Avigliana (“Croquis de fabrique de nitroglycérine à Avigliana”), including the facilities marked for “Préparation, séparation et lavage à l’eau”, 1 page, oblong 4to, no date--4) a detailed map, captioned in French, of the constructions and buildings including “cartoucheries”, “magasin”, “Filtrage & dynamiterie”, “Lavages”, “Pompe pour l’Appareil”, “Glacier & magasin a Glycerine”, “Hanger à Bomb. Acide nitrique”, “maison de garde”, “chien de garde”, etc -- 5) a scale drawing from a patent application, on transparency paper stamped “Jannot Breveté...à Triel (S et O), constructeur mécanicien”), together with other ink sketches and drawings of machinery 6) Manuscript memorandum in French signed by Amedeo Hoffer, the Director of the factory at Avigliana, recording the payments to all the workers employed, 2 pages, 4to, no date; together with other financial memoranda, 2 pages, 8vo, 21 February 1873 -- 7) Italian manuscript of the “Regolamento dei transporti delle Materie infiammabili ed esplodenti” approved by the administrators Bolmira and Guglianetti 12 pages, 4to, 9 April 1872, with a printed English translation--8) Seven manuscript technical and legal documents, one regarding Nobel’s patent, annotated in blue crayon, 22 pages, 4to, Milan, 4 May 1872 9) Manuscript of the “Atto di Costituzione della Società per la Fabbricazione della Dinamite” and “Statuto della Società Anonima per la Fabbricazione della Dinamite”, identifying the main shareholders, including 65 pages, folio, Turin, 5 June 1873--together with an 11-page summary, and manuscript list of the shares accorded to each shareholder This collection contains one of the longest and most important letters by Alfred Nobel (1833-1896) to appear at auction, giving detailed instructions for the establishment of a dynamite factory near Turin in 1872-1873. The collection is illustrated with ink and pencil sketches of the buildings, together with documents about the establishment of the company there. At the end of December 1871, Alfred Nobel obtained from the Italian government a six-year patent for the exploitation of dynamite, to be financed by both French and German investors. In April 1872, Nobel reached an agreement with five Parisian financiers (and engineers) to found a public limited company. Among the shareholders mentioned here were Francesco Barbe, Amedeo Hoffer (director of the factory), Casimir Robaudi (agent for the Nobel company in Hamburg), Antonio Campagna (formerly mayor of Avigliana), the Hamburg merchants Carl Ferdinand Carstens and Edouard Bandmann, and the Parisian banker Gunzbourg. They acquired land near Avigliana, some thirty kilometres west of Turin, and set up a factory through a commissionaire, Robaudi, obtaining a patent for the manufacture of dynamite. Documents relating to this are also included in this collection. The company established by Nobel continued production until being destroyed during the Second World War; it became the site of the paint factory DUCO, where Primo Levi worked for many years, writing Se questo è un uomo in 1946.
