Sobre este artículo
Paris: L'Auteur, au Faux-bourg Saint Germain et Olivier de Varennes, 1669 A very good copy of the scarce 1st edition. Moyse Charas (1619-1698) was an apothecary, famous for his pharmaceutical work. He was expert in poisons and their antidotes and this study on vipers and venom was ground-breaking and popular at the time. This copy is in contemporary calf boards with a new calf spine with gilt lined raised bands, blind stamped designs and red title label. It has had expert leather repair to corners and so is in very good condition. Page edges speckled. There is the armorial bookplate of Beilby Thompson of Eserick to the front pastdown. Beilby Thompson (1742-1799) was a prominent landowner and politician. Contents complete with decorative title; title dated 1669; epistre 4pp; Preface 6pp; text pp 1-200 with 3 double page plates; Echiosophium pp 201-218; table 4pp; Privelege du Roy with errata at the end 2pp. Text with decorative initial capitals and head and tailpieces.
