The Syston Park copy of the first edition, in an early binding whose design is schematised in Hobson's Les reliures à la fanfare, 'Le problème de l'S fermé'. Esmerian compared the binding to one of his own on an Aretino, affirming that 'Thorold (Syston Park library, no 153, 1884), possédait une reliure en tout point semblable à celle-ci sur un Arétin'. This is the only other known occurrence of the same design. Brunet I, 402, 416; Hobson, Fanfare list 11, no 286 and diagram p.100; cf. Esmerian II, 76; Dulong, École des Chartes vol. 140-1, pp.61-83.
2 works in one volume, octavo (141 x 96mm). Woodcut portraits of Aretino on titles (final leaf with portrait lacking). French red morocco of c.1625, decorated in gilt to a saltire pattern with double D, M, ? and F, and two forms of 'S fermés', edges gilt. Provenance: Thorold, Syston Park (bookplate).
