BOUND TOGETHER WITH LOCI COMMUNES THEOLOGICI PRO ECCLESIA CATHOLICA Coloniae Agrippinae; Coloniae Maternus Cholinus; Arnodi Birchmanni 1560; 1559 small folio contemporary full leather over boards, rolled designs in blind xxxxviii, 527, (1), 36, (xiii), 144 pages ; xii, 382 pages
This volume contains two important books written by a well-respected and well-known Catholic clergymen during the Reformation. Additionally, they are both first printings. (Adams 717 & 718 for Panoplia and Adams 2221 for Loci ) We can find no other instances where the two are bound in one. There are very few public holdings of either title in the first edition (for example, ten for Panoplia and three for Loci per OCLC) and only a few more in the later printings. Text in Latin.
Panoplia is, itself, in two parts - both of which are present here and have separate title pages. It has the folding table, which is so often missing as it was never bound-in. The author, Lindanus, was a staunch defender of the faith, bishop of Ruremonde, and later of Ghent. Phillip II helped him found the Royal Seminary at Louvain for the education of young clerics.
Loci Communes, by general definition, are the common topics of discussion in theology. During the Reformation, a number of writers on both sides used the loci method to argue their case. Konrad Kling (Conrado Clingio) was one of the Catholic writers of Loci, which bolstered the Catholic stronghold. Cling or Kling, was a Franciscan monk in Germany and preached at Erfurt. He was remarked as being, "the only priest who kept up the religious services of his Church at a time when the Romish churches were deserted and the people eagerly listened to evangelical truth, as preached by the Reformers and either disciples." (Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature). Kling died in 1566.
The binding is an attractive example of the German rolled style and is certainly contemporary with the text. It had clasps at one time as evidenced by nail marks, staining and a small loss of leather on the bottom board. The edges are soiled, as are the first and last few pages. These are also quite worn at the corners with some small paper loss. There are some small stains and very minor smudges throughout the text. Altogether, an attractive volume with hard-to-find texts.

Paris La Chambre Syndicale des Imprimeurs Lithographes 1913 8vo. cloth (v), 170, (26) pages
This manual offers a comprehensive overview of the laws, regulations and practices concerning lithography in France in the early twentieth century. It gives guidance for relating to authors, various clients, paper makers, and employees. It addresses the relative rights of each and how to resolve disputes. It lists tariffs for various types of printing orders, and calls attention to a number of safety issues. Among the details provided, for example, is that employers could not require female employees, and other workers under 18, to work more than 10 hours per day. It also lists the maximum weight loads that workers could be required to carry, broken down by age and gender. A 12-leaf section of fascinating two-color advertisements is included at the back of the book. The covers of this copy bow out slightly and many pages are foxed.
