Title: Le vive imagini di tutti quasi gl'imperatori da C. Iulio Cæsare, in sino a Carlo. V
Author: Goltz Hubert
Seller: The Book Block (United States)
Description: Antwerp (Gilles Coppens), 1557 [Colophon 1560]. Tall 4to. (12 1/2 x 8 3/4 inches), contemporary vellum with ties (renewed), and new endleaves; title lettered on the spine. First Spanish edition. Notwithstanding the presence of the woodcut title-page from the Latin edition and one leaf substituted [A6] from the Italian edition, the text and collation conforms to the Fairfax Murray copy [No. 187] of the first Spanish edition. That Coppens also published editions in French, German, Italian and Latin may account for the anomalies in our copy. In a cloth clam-shell case.This book begins with one the most remarkable title-pages of the 15th century, an example of Dutch mannerist ornamentation, executed in chiaroscurrtrait. It is followed by the Dedication to Philip II, the Prohemio de la obra, the Declaracion, and by 134 large (7 inches in diameter), medallion portraits of Roman and German emperors, all printed in chiaroscuro from blocks engraved and cut into wood by Josse Gietleughen after designs by the author. This splendid series of portraits, the first book to employ chiaroscuro woodcuts for illustration, were adapted after ancient coins by Hubert Goltzius (1526-1583). In those cases where he failed to find a satisfactory image as a model (fourteen Carolingian and Ottonian monarchs), Goltz decided instead to print a blank roundel accompanied by the appropriate text. The text in extremely erudite and is mostly concerned with the biographical data of the personalities depicted. The collation is: A, a-b, D-Z, Aa-Ee6, Ff-Gg4 (last blank, lacking) = 176 leaves, unnumbered. The paper used for the various editions of this work is invariably subject to discoloration and often the over-inked blocks have corroded the paper. Our copy has been carefully restored, including the repair of worm tracks and paper loss. Signatures. a & b should be marked B & C. They exactly imitate the same leaves in the 1557 Latin edition with the same blanks occurring, but with the following exceptions. No. 113 Charlemange and 131-132 (one portrait) Henry IV now supplied; the oval portrait of Philip and Maxmilian has disappeared, its place being taken by letterpress. Thus there is one more to add to those in the Latin edition, making 134 portraits in all. That of Ferdinand [155] is a new one; it is a bust only without crown, orb or scepter. The Spanish edition appears for sale far less frequently than the Latin, German, French and Italian editions. See: Fairfax Murray 187. Adams G840. Palau 103463. THE RARE SPANISH VERSION

Northumberland County, PA, 1849-62. 328 x 203 mm. Original reverse calf stamped in black, worn. A few leaves in front loose, light toning and spotting, but a very good example. Medical ledger and daybook of Dr. Joseph Craven Robin, the first physician to locate and practice in Elysburg, Pennsylvania. "He first read medicine with his brother William at Sunbury, completing his professional preparation at the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1828 began practice at Sunbury. The following year he removed to Elysburg, at which point he was the first physician to locate permanently, and he was in active practice there for forty-two years, his field covering all the eastern part of Northumberland County and the adjoining portions of Montour, Columbia and Schuylkill counties. He was of the old 'saddle-bag' doctors, and in spite of the hardships of a physician's life in his day survived all his fellow practitioners who were in practice at the time his career began, living to the advanced age of eighty-seven years. He retired from active professional labors about 1870" (Floyd's Northumberland County Genealogy).
