Augustano - Nurnberg: Melchior Kusel - Johann Leonhard Buggel 1679. First edition 1679-80. In German. Imperfect copy with an interesting provenance. Book of beautifully produced engravings of scenes from the Old and New Testaments previously owned by George W. Van Horne 1833-1895 appointed by Abraham Lincoln as US Consul at Marsailles. Includes an 1870 letter signed by Van Horne discussing how he purchased the book from a certain bookseller "of the highest reputation for integrity" and that it was one of only thirty copies printed which we now strongly suspect to be untrue. What the bookseller also neglected to inform him was that there are 11 of 249 plates missing with no evidence that they were ever bound in. Full contemporary leather with red spine label raised spine bands with compartments decorated with a pomegranate motif a total of 238 plates printed on one side only six page of text title page dedication engraved pages dividing the sections colophon.
