No. 11 of 13 copies printed on vellum there were also 88 copies printed on paper. Title with vignette numerous woodcut illustrations and large initial capitals. 1 vols. Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm. One of 13 Copies on Vellum. This work consists of two important ordinances issued by the Spanish monarchy on November 20 1542 and June 4 1543. Under the active influence of Bartolomeo de las Casas "friend of the Indians" the new laws had the special design of ensuring better treatment of the Indians limiting the distribution of their lands and above all protecting them against enslavement by the conquering Spaniards. "Las Leyes Nuevas" are reprinted here in this fine facsimile from the copy on vellum in the British Museum and are followed by an English translation. Much of the book is taken up by the historical Introduction by Henry Stevens who denounces the Spanish mistreatment of the Indians. Ironically the Spanish crown was later forced to rescind the new laws by colonists who were outraged at having to give up their right to a quota of enslaved Indian laborers. A magnificent and impressive production by the Chiswick Press one of only 13 printed on vellum. Chiswick Press unknown books

As with all other Spanish royal signatures Philip has signed "Yo el Rey" I the King. With the words "El Rey" at the top this document grants permission to the town of Canical to withhold 20000 Maravedis coin of the time from the sum it owes in taxes in order to settle a municipal debt. Includes 18 lines in brown ink in a miniscule script. Next to the King's signature is a mounted printed paper woodcut seal with the emblem of the College of Notaries of Madrid. Countersigned in a bold dark script Jorge de Tovar. At the bottom are three lines by officials of the town of Canical acknowledging the permission granted. Philip III was King of Spain and King of Portugal from 1598 until his death. He inherited essentially a bankrupt nation with a disastrous economy. His father Philip II had drained Spain's resources with her wealth based on the silver mines of Latin America. Spain's internal economy was weak with little industry and a backward agriculture and large estates worked by peasants ruined by excessive taxation. This document is typical of the economic weakness of Spain with the town of Canical requiring monetary help. An attractive official document with bold signatures. unknown books
