London Longman, Hurst, Rees & Orme 1807 8vo. modern quarter cloth, marbled-paper boards, paper spine label (i), xxxix, 341, (3) pages
Landseer haslittle concern for the technique of engraving, and instead highlights the discussions about the claim of engraving to be a fine art, rules for the profession of engraver, and if indeed it was a profession.(Bridson & Wakeman B135). The endpapers and blanks are modern with an earlier bookplate from the New Haven Free Library preserved on the front pastedown. The only other indication that this was a library book is a faint stamp on the title page and two numbers written on the verso of the title page. A sheet of paper with notes in Bridson's hand laid-in. With the bookplate and pencil signature of Gavin Bridson.

  Leaf from a German Bible.
N.P. n.p. n.d. 13 1/2 by 9 inches
Text in German. Leaf from a German Bible, Begins with the final chapters of the Gospel According to St. Luke; ends with the first chapter of the Gospel According to St. John. In German script. Engraved illustration at the beginning of John's Gospel, with engraved initial. The translation into German appears to be a very early one, perhaps antedating Luther's translation of the New Testament completed by 1522. References to other biblical texts in the margins. The same spelling of the preposition by (with) is in a prayer/devotional book, ca. 1550-1579, in the archives of North Rhine-Westphalia, Düsseldorf. The leaf is slightly torn at the bottom and along one side and tanning, mostly along the margins.
