. Printed wrappers, 8vo, 170 pp, facs. 667 items. From the introduction by Ronald Folter: "It is from [Kraus'] private library in Ridgefield . that the books in this first of a series of catalogues are drawn, representing most of the early works in HPK's library. Among many of historical importance found here are the two earliest Trithemius editions (1494 and 1512) all three book-fair-catalogue compilations by Bassaeus, Clessius, and Draudius, as well as some early book fair catalogues themselves, several Gesner editions, the first English and the first French national bibliographies (Bale and Grude de La Croix du Maine), and the first book trade bibliography (Maunsell), many fine eighteenth-century bibliographies, and a good number of sale and publishers' catalogues, including a unique Elzevir."
