1668réf. 0010106France. Good with no dust jacket. 1668. Ephemera. On offer is an interesting civil law document dating from mid-17th century France. Drafted in 1668 context suggests that this is a marriage document. The names Elizabeth and Nicolau Villeganyan sic a Captain in the French army are written in the first few lines. There is also a reference to marriage later in the document as seen in this excerpt: .Porter pour leur marriage. Translation: .to wear for their wedding . This was the France of Louis XIV the Sun King. His military was the most powerful in Europe. The fact that Nicolau was a Captain meant that he commanded a company in the Royal Army and was a man of means as he would have had to purchase his commission. The document is signed by Regnault most likely a notary. The location is not identified. The paper bears a watermark displaying a shield on which is a chevron and 3 orbs. For a historian especially a social historian this manuscript is a fine example of the civil law and arrangements surrounding marriage in mid-17th century France. For a military historian it is a connection to one of the great armies in European history. This 4-page manuscript document measures 13.0 inches by 8.5 inches. It is 66% complete. The paper is in good condition with wear marks along the edges. The handwriting is difficult to read. ; Manuscripts; 13"x8.5"; 4 pages; Signed by Author . unknown

1600réf. 032381Paris: Marc Orry 1600 A good copy of the 2nd French edition of Joseph Acosta's important work on the New World first published in Spanish in 1590. Acosta was a Jesuit who spent 17 years in South America and Mexico. His work based on careful observation formed one of the first accounts of the New World. This copy is in probably contemporary full vellum binding with yapp edges. The original ties have gone. It is difficult to say if the binding was hard or soft cover because at some point in its history it has had an old stiff embossed wallpaper with gilt birds and flowers used to form new endpapers. There are no pages before the title page which has had a strip added at the bottom and which is coming loose. Contents: title page; dedication pp ii-iv; advert; poems 4pp; Extrait du Privilege du Roi 1p; Text in 7 books pp 1-375; table of contents 34 pp. The text pages are numbered on the recto only. With decorative head pieces and initial capitals. The text is very clean with just the occasional mark and some light underlining at p 238 but p 58 is missing. P 31 is mispaginated as p 13; p 267 is un-numbered and p 97 is very thin with a hole in the bottom margin. The final third of the book is quite difficult to open fully - probably because of the way the endpapers have been added. Marc Orry hardcover
