Full calf. Probable first issue of the Stowe Edition with Chaucer's arms dated 1560 and before woodcut additions. Relative to the precedence of issues of the 1561 Stowe edition David R. Carlson ("The Woodcut Illustrations in Early Printed Editions of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales," in Chaucer Illustrated: Five Hundred Years of The Canterbury Tales in Pictures [British Library, 2003]) states "the most plausible explanation seems to be that the printer and publisher of the [Stowe] edition, came into possession of the woodcuts belatedly after most of the press work for the edition had been done. After obtaining the blocks, they ran up a new issue of the beginning of the book, incorporating a "General Prologue" illustrated with woodcut. In all documented cases, the unillustrated [i.e. first]"General Prologue" occurs with a title page showing the Chaucer arms, dated 1560 at the top of the shield.

First edition in English of the I-Ching, the ancient Chinese book of divination, sometimes attributed to Confucius but actually much earlier, possibly with origins in the second millennium and so the most ancient text of Chinese Civilization. OCLC lists but eight copies worldwide. In McClatchie's view Qian and Kun represented the "God of Heathendom. Qian or his Male portion… and Kun or his Female portion …. These two, he goes on to say, "are enclosed in the circle or ring… known as the Supreme Ultimate or Great One, from which all things are generated." His contemporaries "ridiculed this decidedly sexual view (Shchutskii described it as the product of "pseudoscientific delirium"), but recent work by other scholars suggests its essential validity. (Richard J. Smith, "How the Book of Changes arrived in the West"). This copy very handsomely bound by Bennett of New York about seventy years ago in grained sienna morocco with title & author in double gilt ruled spine compartments; tooled hubs; top edge gilt. "Shanghai 1876" and owner's name to foot of spine. Preliminaries slightly foxed. xiii (vii -xiii of which are plates),[i],xvii,455, [i] (errata). Chinese and English on opposite pages. "Shanghai, Nov. 1876" in light pencil to front fly. Slight loss of paper to front board. Please see images.
