With the final blank leaf (outer and lower margins of title cut down with no loss, browned throughout, waterstain in top fore-corners throughout). Modern half vellum.
Probably the second edition of this comical literary battle in dialogue form (Thea and Calida) between China tea (which first reached Germany in 1657) and Glühwein. The author decides the contest to be a draw.
