3 volumes bound in one, 4o (202 x 166 mm). Contemporary vellum, gilt lettered paper spine label. Provenance: Theodor von Hase (1682-1731), reformed theologian in Bremen, (ownership inscription on title).
FIRST EDITIONS of Georg Draud's ambitious third compilation of Frankfurt Book Fair catalogues, following those of Bassaeus and Clessius. "By also including books printed from 1500 to 1563 'which to a major part can still be found in bookshops,' Draud fulfilled the promise Clessius made on the title-page of his Elenchus. The first part Exotica describes books in the modern European languages, foremost among them those in French; the second, books in the learned languages on theology, law, medicine, science, etc.; the third, books in German. The material is arranged according to subjects, or classes (classica)" Breslauer & Folter 47; Pollard & Ehrman, p.82; Taylor, p.88.
