Interior no blanks, paper generally aged with some foxing throughout, bottom corner of page 7 torn off affecting text, but otherwise complete and good. Bookplate of proverb collector and reputed WWII spy, de Guinzbourg, this the first iteration as Lt. Col. A curious book of proverbs, long attributed to the Count of Cramail (who had written a Comedy of Proverbs) but more recently attributed to a plagiarism of Fleury de Bellingen's 1653 work on proverbs. Proverbs were extremely popular in the 1600s and, as here, were used during entertainments. This includes the rather obscure proverb "shit on your throat," always an attention getter at parties!; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 228 pages .
