12mo, pp. 106, (2) index, folding lithographed frontispiece of instruments. Later vellum-backed marbled boards. Some foxing, but a very good copy. FIRST EDITION IN ITALIAN (?) of an exceptionally rare and quite early treatise on chiropody, which, like so much of the early literature of that subject, was based on Laforest's L'art de soigner les pieds. The ?Terza edizione? on the title-page is probably taken from the third French edition of 1824, and simply included in the translation. NUC records only two French editions, 1818 and 1824, and this Italian edition, all in one copy only. Seller Inventory # 2338
