PLACCIUS, Vincent (1642-1699). De Scriptis & Scriptoribus anonymis atque pseudonymi[s] syntagma. [Joannis Rhodii Dani auctorum supposititiorum catalogus, ad autographum ejusdem fideliter expressus, in quo scriptores anonymi & pseudonymi manifestantur]. Hamburg: Christian Guth, 1674.
2 parts in one volume, 4o (192 x 140mm). First part extra-illustrated with an alternative title. (Lacking all after H3 in part 2, title to first part shaved with loss, KK3 in part I with old neatly repaired paper-fault tear, some spotting.) Old calf (rebacked, extremities rubbed).
First edition of the the first comprehensive bibliography of anonymous and pseudonymous literature. This copy is unusual in that the first part includes an alternative title that is normally replaced by the regular title. This alternative early title is not mentioned by the standard bibliographies, but is included in the online descriptions of a number of institutional copies.
