Sender: Rare book and manuscripts <EXLIBRIS-L@LISTSERV.INDIANA.EDU>
I have recently purchased a rare Estienne imprint. In any case, the
title-page does not exactly match the title-page transcriptions in the BNF,
so I think this might be an unusual variant. Nor have I found it in
WorldCat.
It is the folio issue of the first edition of the first part of Thou's
History.
Title:
IAC. AVGVSTI / THVANI / HISTORIARVM / SVI TEMPORIS / PARS PRIMA / [device] /
PARISIIS, / Apud viduam MAMERTI PAISSONII typographi Regij. / In Officina
Roberti Stephani. / [rule] / M. DCIIII. / CVM PRIVILEGIO.
[9] leaves; 684 pp.; [18] leaves.
If anyone has any information about this book, I would greatly
appreciate your sharing it with me.
Best
