About This Item
Pescia: Stamperia di Gio. Tommaso Masi e Compagni, 1782. Half Calf, Marbled Boards. Good Plus. 4to. [8], 112 pp. The most interesting aspect of the book is the selection of Greek epigrammatic verses translated into both Latin and Italian. With a few handsome pictorial vignettes as well. The leaves are very heavily toned, and some foxing in addition. Chip on the spine, and the leather is dry or goupy elsewhere.
