Set of three incunabula bound in one volume. In-folio... - Lot 2 - Tessier & Sarrou et Associés
Set of three incunabula bound in one volume. In-folio full brown calf, spine with 5 nerves decorated with gilding, two title-pieces on red leather, the first one with gold lettering "Rob.delit / Sermones / Gregoriu / In moral / Margari ", the second one "Editione / Antiquae / Abisq. Amn ", three red speckled edges, restorations to the first board. CARACCIOLUS Robertus : Sermones de adventu, sermo de S. Jospeh, sermo de Beatitudine, sermones de divina caritate, sermones de immortalitate animae. Addition : Dominicus Bollanus : De conception B.V.M. Printed [Lyon, Nicolaus Philippi and Marcus Reinhart, ca. 1479] 78 leaves, signed, printed on 2 columns of 48 lines, first leaf blank with traces of discharge. Some traces of ink, small handwritten corrections post-printing. ANONYMOUS: Pharetra doctorum et philosophorum. Printed by Friedrich Creussner [Nuremberg, ca. 1472-1474], founder of the second Nuremberg press. 42 leaves, unsigned, printed on a column of 33 lines. There are only books three and four. Presence of the watermark "ox's head with eyes and nostril surmounted by a star line or a star" (Briquet, numbered 15081), very similar to those present in the Gutenberg Bible. GUIDO Vincentius: Margarita. [Impr. Toulouse or Spain circa 1485] 60 leaves, unsigned, printed on a column of 30 lines. A rare incunabulum, only 4 copies are currently known (one in the British Library, one in the Orleans Library and one in the BNF). As it came off the press, without illumination or lettering. A few traces of moisture framing a few pages, small wormholes at the beginning of the book, and a few losses, not detrimental to the texts, at the top corner of the last pages. The whole remains fresh and in very good condition. A handwritten inscription on the back of the title page indicating, in Latin, the titles and authors of the books in this collection. Probably from the hand of their former owner in the eighteenth century: the Abbé Perrichon. Indeed, this work is found in the catalog of the sale of his library, written by him in 1791.
