Manoscritti Slavi Documenti e Carte Riguardanti la Storia Bulgara della Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana e Dell'Archivio Segreto Vaticano (IX-XVII Secolo)

Sofia: Casa Editrice Nauka I Izkustvo, 1979. Hardcover. A book, entirely in color, of well-reproduced cartographics ingeniously presented, with one enormous map done as a folded-in-half dust jacket over raw linen boards, and others carefully folded (individual treatment). A real labor of love! --crafted by real Bulgarians. What editorial text is here is in Italian, after all they own the maps. Pagination runs to 149p., a densely-composed text in fine shape as is the cloth casing and the folded map/dj : entirely sound, clean and unmarked. (Inventory #: 275708)
