First edition. (Breslauer & Folter 101, Petzholdt 281-282). Volume three, sections M-R & S-Z of Georgi's ambitious Allgemeines Europäisches Bücher-Lexicon. This work "represents the last attempt to list all the books ever printed (up to 1757)." A good source for early bibliography of 17th century German authors as well as a fine source for bibliography of other important Euopean publishers and writers. This volume includes a listing of books by the Estinennes. All book sizes and prices are listed. Georgi was a Leipzig bookseller and publisher. Decorative head and tail pieces. Front board detached. Boards rubbed. Spine lacking. Pages foxed and some brittle. Library stamp on half-title.
