About this Item

Rare 1593 copy bound in limp vellum covers which have a fair amount of soiling and wear with some nice manuscript titling to the spine. The binding clasp cords are no longer present. There are some cracks and gaps to the interior hinges, but the binding is good and sound. The back fep has a strip about an inch in length along the outer edge which is clipped off. There is some worming to the pages, some of which affects a portion of text. The interior is toned from age with some occasional foxing, tanning & staining. Some of the pages have period manuscript notation, underlining & bracketing in fountain pen. One leaf has a decent sized chip out of the bottom corner; however, the text is not affected. There is likely a few other pages with some other very minor chips or tears. Along with that there is likely the very occasional page with some kind of other minor imperfection such as a creased page corner, minor interior crack, wrinkle, etc. The book measures approximately 8 7/8 inches by 6 3/4. The text is complete. Il Goffredo, overo Gierusalemme Liberata is 128 pages long and Cinque Canti di Camillo Camilli is 42. The text of the book is in Italian. Seller Inventory # 304241844414
