| Summary: | Niall Kenny description: Pagination errors: book 1 - p 93 as '39', no page number on p181; book 2 - p93 as '63', p297 as '295'; rubricated title page to first book only, but both books with dated title page; the 64 anatomy plates are included in the pagination; 1st ed 1598, re-issued in 1599, 2nd edition 1602, and there are 2 variants of the 3rd edition both in 1618 and both by Prati, and a 4th in 1707; all early editions scarce. The Edinburgh and NLS copies are the 2nd issue which lacks the pagination errors above, except the final one in book 2 (p 297 as '295'), and collates slightly differently, with the table of contents in the first and second book stopping at R8r and U8r respectively, with R8v and U8v being blank. In addition both title pages are rubricated. There are other detailed variations such that the exact position of the signature marks differ on the various pages between the two issues. A full digital download of book 1 is available from Utrecht Veterinary Collection: http://objects.library.uu.nl/reader/index.php?obj=1874-34992&lan=en#page//15/20/30/152030945066067129572340521208251494753.jpg/mode/1up |
