Sobre este artículo
LYON: ANTOINE BESSON,, 1683 12mo. Collation: a6, A G6. [10], 84 printed pages. Complete with one folding engraved plate, & woodcut diagrams in the text. Ownership signatures on all four endpapers (front & back). Very small marginal stain from title page to the folding plate, another on pages 19-34 & a small marginal stain on the last few leaves. 8.5 x 15 cm. Contemporary speckled calf, red edges, spine in six compartments with raised bands (slightly worn at head and tail); binding very slightly stained & worn at extremities. This pockrt sized volume is devoted mainly to the conversion, by arithmetic and geometric means, between various types of French measurements used in surveying and construction. The major French measure, the toise, was about two meters (six feet) in length but varied from city to city. Additional conversions of shorter lengths (equivalent to about a foot) are also considered, and the work contains small tables equating various measures. There is a figure of a protractor and a plane scale, by Claude Naulot (1681-1700), a Lyon merchant and author of a number of works on tariffs and measurement. Provenance: Fontaine H. du Mallimal. This edition is not recorded by Hoock & Jeannin (II/C41.1), who describe one printed at Lyon: F. Roux, 1683 (copy in Bibliothèque nationale de France). One copy of the present edition located by WorldCat in the Bibliothèque municipale de Lyon; it seems to be otherwise unknown. Tomash & Williams C212. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good.

Sobre Camden Lock Books, ABA, IOBA.
My online bookselling is Camden Lock books. I own Camden Lock Books & list books that are uncommon, in demand and may be hard to find.
My book expertise came with four years as Chairman of London P.B.F.A. , many more years of exhibiting at monthly London Rare Book Fairs & owning my own bookshops continuously since 1984.
Every book here was valued by the person who first bought it and will be just as prized by the person who buys it now from my shopping website.
I am an accredited professional & a full member of the ABA, ILAB and the IOBA, "Setting the standard. The books you want...from booksellers you can trust".
You can meet me on my stand at Firsts 2024, London's Rare Book Fair, at the Saatchi Gallery, London SW3 4RY, 16-19 May 2024.
I also am joint owner of Burley Fisher Books , an independent bookshop offering new and secondhand books.
