Contemporary half sheep, marbled boards, black leather lettering piece on spine. Provenance : bookplate with initials "N.P." Edition de luxe, on large handmade paper, of the sale catalogue of a "cabinet" remarkable for its outstanding bindings, among them a Grolier (Austin 434/5 - Hoe sale II, 269, mentioning Baron Franchetti as a provenance), a François I (Pontanus, 1505), and bindings with the arms of Henri IV and Ely Dufresnoy (ex Laroche-Lacarelle); among the French eighteenth-century bindings were three inlaid volumes, two by Padeloup le Jeune and one by Devers (Michon 61, 62 & 193).
