Sobre este artículo
n.p., 1829. Hardcover. Very Good+. Contemporary sheep-backed marbled boards, gilt-stamped lettering in red leather label on upper board; oblong 4to (296x304 mm); with title-p., 3 leaves of explanatory text, and 9 specimens of Italic, Roman, and Fraktur alphabets (13 leaves in all), written in black ink on laid paper. Spine heavily chipped, with gatherings exposed (but holding just fine); corners bumped; minor spotting throughout.
Calligraphic manuscript in Danish, signed "P. E. Glahn, Stykjunker." A nicely accomplished guide to alphabet styles and sizes for use in cartographic text, apparently written by the Danish career military officer Glahn (1811-96) as an artillery cadet. Dansk Biografisk Lexikon VI, 97-98.
