by Sluijter, Dirk; [Kästner, Christian August Leberecht (illus.)]
Amsterdam: Gebroeders Van Arum, [1826]. Hardcover. Very Good. Original printed paper over boards; 12mo (166x100mm); pp. [2] (half-title p., blank), [i]-iv, [1]-142, plus 48 hand-colored engraved vignette illustrations on 8 plates. N.d., but library records indicate 1826. Boards browned, a bit scuffed; some light bumping and chipping along the edges; two spots of staining on rear board. Waterstain on title-page, as well as just the very tip of the top corner of last few leaves; but, overall, internally clean and unmarked, and plates are lovely. In custom red cloth box. Scarce -- OCLC locates just 5 copies.
