rentinus, 1552. With woodcut-arms on title and a few woodcut initi-
ais. 295 pp. La-8vo. (14,5 : 22,5 cm.) Bound for Jean Grolier in a
splendid „mosaiqué” binding of light brown polished calf, richly
decorated on both covers with a finely designed scrollpattern of
interlacing fillets, outlined in gilt tooling and enamelled with black,
blue and white. At the foot of the front-cover: ,,Jo. Grolieri et amico-

The Barbet copy. In the „Bulletin Morg and” tome VII no. 28298 there is repro-
duced a binding of the same style also for a book by Osorius and printed. at
Florence 1552. The Bulletin says: „Les volumes reliés en mosaiqué portant le
nom de Grolier sont d’une excessive rareté.” The binding is well preserved, but
the back is very neatly renewed and the plates somewhat restored and with
a few small round wormholes. The book itself is also of great interest. Osorio
of Portuguese origin and called the „Portuguese Cicero” gives in this work his
important philosophical, historical and sociological view. The text is in fine
condition.
