Copies are also known without a dated title-page and without the address to the reader and plate list, and with numbered plates. Bobins V, 1481; Brunet V: 1429 (the 1708 edition only); Colas 2189; Faber du Faur 1123; Lipperheide Ac 2.



Folio (339 x 230mm). 4 lvs. of letterpress, comprising title, dedication to Emperor Joseph, preface and plate list, and 100 copper-engraved plates by Caspar Luyken after Christoph Weigel, all finely coloured by a contemporary hand (occasional small spot, minor repaired marginal tears, extending into image in 2 plates). 18th-century sheep, spine gilt in compartments with 2 leather lettering-pieces (rubbed, neat repairs, endpapers renewed).
