HORAE, use of Paris, in Latin and French. Paris: Nicolas Hygman for Jean de Brie, [c.1515, almanac for 1515-30].

Collation: a-b8 c4 d-i8 k6 a e i8 o6. 18 large cuts and 29 small cuts of Evangelists, the Gospels and the saints; full-page printer’s device and anatomical man, each page within multi-piece historiated and ornamental border, initials painted in red and blue, initial strokes in yellow, text ruled in red and rubricated (leaves a1-2 remargined, and a few repaired marginal closed tears, small loss on upper corner of leaf e5, occasional marginal dampstains). Contemporary French blind-tooled polished calf, gilt edges (rebacked, corners and fore-edges repaired); modern quarter morocco chemise and slipcase. Provenance: “Sebastien Duboys charron de ferrières” (contemporary manuscript annotation on leaf a2r) – acquired from Librairie Lardanchet, Paris, 15 December 1981.
