This extremely unusual trade card for the firm of E. Brandsma in Amsterdam dealers in tea seems to be a VERY EARLY EXAMPLE OF TRANSLUCENT PLASTIC. Alexander Parkes developed a product the first thermoplastic in the 1850's by treating cellulose with nitric acid to form a transparent and elastic material know then as Parkesine. Parkesine was patented in 1856 and unveiled at the 1862 Great Exhibition. Parkes attempted to develop it commercially but failed due to the high cost and general production difficulties. It was usually produced in rectangular plaques such as here.

8vo. (32), 382, (2) pp. Fine printer's mark on title and several decorated initials. Contemporary limp vellum, spine with traces of former calf reinforcement. First and only edition. A rare treatise against usury written "for all Christians and particularly for the people of Paris". The author launches a vehement attack on luxury in general and on the taking of interest as one of the greatest of all sins, forbidden by all laws, and against the law of nature. He discusses the prohibitions by Mosaic law, the Prophets, Jesus Christ, the Apostles, canon law and civil law and quotes from the proclamations against usury and usurers issued by the Paris parliament in 1565, by Charles IX in 1567 and by Henry III in 1577. The second part of the book provides more detailed information about the various types of usury, how to approach them, how to treat usurers, etc. As an example of God's hatred of luxury and usury, the author reminds the reader of the dreadful fate of the city of Antwerp, "one of the richest and most prosperous cities in all Christianity", which was sacked in the "Spanish Fury" only a year before the publication of this book, causing the end of Antwerp's prosperity. Godefroy calls himself "Parisien, profez en l'Abbaye S. Denis en France, & docteur en la faculté de Theologie à Paris". - Binding worn, both covers nearly detached. Upper margin of first and last leaves stained, some leaves spotted. Old ownership to title-page (dated 1681); additional early annotations to verso of final leaf. Very rare. OCLC 492381754.
