A propos de cet article

Johann Huttich's 1534 edition of Imperatorum et Caesarum Vitae, a history of Roman emporers from Julius Caesar to Charles V., including illustrations by the celebrated Hans Weditz, with portraits drawn from the emperor's coins. Huttich had a history of referencing ancient coins, and the coinage illustrations printed in this work encouraged contemporary 16th century coin collecting (see King Phillip II's copy, bound in Salamanca goatskin, for example), making this a very early numismatic reference work, which is still in use today (for example, the American Numismatic Society holds this work in their reference library with shelf number H888 I47). Bibliographic Details - Universal Short Title Catalogue number USTC 665202. Not rare, found in many of the world's best libraries (Cambridge, British Library, NYPL, Duke, Biblioteca Nacional, etc.) Worldcat OCLC catalogue number 1051580878, among others. Adams - H1248, Brunet - 391-2 Physical Attributes - Rather basic decorative-paper covered pasteboard binding. Illustrated. Two volumes in one binding. Srinkled red text block edges. Pages - xvi, 88. xxxii. Collation - Aa-Bb4, A-X4, Y5 (missing Y6, which had a printer's mark on it). aa-dd4. Condition - See pictures. Binding worn, with thumbing, corners bumped, edge and corner wear, etc. There is a library label at the base of the spine. Tex block edges are a little darkened. Numerous bibliographic entries to the pastedown. No front flyleaf. Lots of thumbing, toning, and a stain to title page; also, name written in old hand. Text block toned throughout, with occasional fox spot, thumbing, page edge tear, dog-eared corner, etc. as to be expected with a nearly 500- year-old book. Occasional moisture marks near the edges. Some annotations and underlining, in an old hand, in the text. Last leaf mounted on a tab. A solid working copy, which has previously been used for reference. This copy is missing the leaf Y6, which had a printer's mark on it, found at the end of the first part.…
