N.P. Comisión Nacional del Sesquicentenario de la Revolución de Mayo 1960 small 4to. stapled, stiff paper wrappers. 3-233, (7) pages.
Not in Besterman, but almost a bibliography. This exhibition catalogue for the Argentine Museo Historico Nacional has 4 sections: Newspapers and Journals, arranged by place (including "en el exilio"); Imprints (circulars, decrees, proclamations, etc.) arranged by period or event; Books and Pamphlets in chronological order, and Almanachs and Calendars, also chronologically. 803 consecutively numbered entries in all. Entries for part 1 give title, issues exhibited, brief publishing history, and a general characterization. Part 2 entries characterize the item and provide date, size and provenance (where possible), and those for 3 and 4 are standard descriptions. A sepia reproduction of a photographic plate depicting the printing press of the Niños Expósitos is loosely inserted under the front cover. Wrappers chipped, soiled; a little loose at the hinges.

(Argentina) CATALOGO DE MANUSCRITOS, PAPELES DE GREGORIO FUNES, INDICE DEL PLAN DE
Buenos Aires Biblioteca Nacional 1940 small 4to. sewn, stiff paper wrappers. 2-53, (3) pages.
In 1813, the Argentine educator, historian and statesman G. Funes submitted a "Plan of Studies for the Main University of Cordoba" to the University. This plan relected the influence of the Enlightenment and, among other things, discussed the teaching of French (not a popular language in certain circles)! Around 1940, the National Library of Argentina reprinted the Plan and also issued this "index" (which is certainly not a catalogue) with about 350 entries under names, titles, and concepts appearing in the Plan, often with page references and/or comments. With a fragment of a letter from Funes to the Bishop of Cordoba and a bibliography on higher education in (Spanish) colonial America. Wrappers chipped, browned, covers detached. Coming unbound (sewing has separated).
