Very good
Description
Tokyo: Okura Magobei, 1884. First edition. Wraps. Very good. Three volumes. Printed paper covers bound in the Japanese style with folded leaves. Japanese text followed by exquisite depictions of a variety of birds in their natural environment, not only those native to Japan, but also exotic birds. The illustrations are subtle colored woodblocks, esteemed for their beauty and realism. A very good set with only light soil and wear to the covers. Volume I, "Ten" (Sky) lacks one double page corner affecting the frame and the tip of the first character, else this is a very good set. .

Description
Lignitz: N Schneider, [1612]. First Edition.. Linen rebacked 19th century boards.. A very good copy; some slight spotting.. Small 4to, unpaginated, A – P4, Q2 A early provincial imprint from a small Silesian town. One incunable imprint is known to exist from the town but then there is nothing until 1595 when according to Brunet printing was re-established. Durling cites a 1596 imprint (#3703) by the same printer on a book remarkably similar in content to the Seiller book offered here. Seiller's medical advice deals with the cure and avoidance of a specific sort of infectious head cold or flu. He provides a very detailed account of the symptoms and their variations and prescribes food, potions, eye washes etc. (a small materia medica accompanies the text). It would appear that the people of Lignitz were periodically infected with this flu like epidemic identified by Seiller's predecessor as originating in Hungary. The text is in German with elaborate side notes in Latin. One copy located at NY Academy of Medicine.
