Sobre este artículo
London: Printed by Thomas Dawks, 1683. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Original full panelled calf covered boards with matching spine renewed. Firm and square, strong joints. Contents tight and clean. No pen-marks, no worming, just some very mild age toning and occasional browning. Not from a library so no such stamps or labels. Collation: pp. [44], 345, [89], 81-133, [1], complete with 43 engravings as per book list, illustrating equipment, procedures and assorted workers in contemporary English costume, (lacks portrait frontis?). Thus a scarce work in better than very good condition. The earliest illustrated book on metallurgy in English. Bibliographic References: Cole 1032; Hoover 633; ESTC R498473.
