Basileae: Apud Thomam Guarinum, 1570. Anglica historia] Polydori Vergili Vrbinatis Anglicae historiae libri vigintiseptem. ab ipso autore postremùm iam recogniti, ádq[ue] amussim, salua tamen historiae veritate, expoliti ; indices rerum singularum & vtiles & copiosos, in operis calce adiectos reperies. Basileae: Apud Thomam Guarinum, 1570. Folio (12 5/8 x 8 inches; 320 x 205 mm). [2], [1]-691, [37, index], [2, colophon] pp. Printer's device of Palm, stating "Palma Guar." on title-page and final leaf. With eight lines of verse praising the work, superscribed "Simon Grynaevs lectori", on the title-page. Text in Latin. Early mottled calf, rebacked and recornered. Boards ruled in blind. Edges dyed red. Boards a bit scuffed and worn. Inner hinges have been repaired, and then cracked again. Old ink notes on front fly leaf and title-page. A small hole to bottom outer corner of title-page, not affecting text. A two-inch by half-inch cut from top outer corner of title-page not affecting text. Some dampstaining throughout. Previous owner's bookplate on front pastedown. Overall a very good copy. "Vergil is best known today for his English History, the Anglica historia. He had probably kept a journal and begun his research into English history soon after his arrival in 1502, but research for a full-scale history of England most likely began in 1506-7, encouraged by Henry VII. A first manuscript version of the Anglica historia, covering events to 1513, was completed in 1512-13 and is now preserved in the Vatican Library. This work was first published at Basel in 1534 by Johann Bebel, but in a version that only went down to 1509. This was followed by a much revised second edition of 1546, and by a third edition of 1555 that was again revised by the author and extended to 1538. " (DNB). HBS 67073. $1,000.

Paris: Les Industries Musicales et Electriques Pathe Marconi, (1961). Signed by Piaf on an affixed "Bruxelles Music Bar" label from an April 1961 appearance. "No, I have no regrets" was composed by Charles Dumont, with lyrics by Michel Vaucaire, in 1956. Piaf dedicated her first recording of the song to the French Foreign Legion. In 1960 France was fighting the Algerian War and their 1st Foreign Parachute Regiment adopted the song when they fell to Algeria's civilian leadership. The Regiment's leaders were arrested and tried however non-commissioned officers, corporals, and Legionnaires were assigned to other Foreign Legion formations. They left the barracks singing the song which has become part of the French Foreign Legion heritage and is sung when they are on parade. Fine condition, scarce in this format.
