Uden trykkested (København?) 1773. 8vo. Med kobberstukket portræt af Struensee som frontispice. (8)+408 sider. MEDINDBUNDET: JØRGEN Hee: Bekehrungsgeschichte des vormaligen Grafen Enewold Brandts. (..) Neue verbesserte Auflage. Mit Anmerkungen des Herausgebers. Med kobberstukket portræt af Brandt som frontispice. 94 sider. Samtidigt halvbind af brunt kalveskind med rygforgyldning. Ryggen professionelt repareret og med fornyet titelfelt. Gl. navn på fribladet. * Bibl. Dan. III,1489. Formentlig en piratudgave af Münters væsentlige kildeskrift om Struensee, der udkom kort efter henrettelsen 28. april 1772. Münter, der var præst for den tyske menighed i København ved St. Petri, blev beskikket som Struensees sjælesørger og bogen er viderebringer deres fængselssamtaler. Struensee angrede alt og bekendte sig til den rette tro - i hvert fald ifølge Münter selv, der således kunne betragte sit værk som fuldført og solede sig i berømmelse og kommerciel succes. Sidstnævnte udløste et tilsvarende værk fra Enevold Brandts sjælesørger. I modsætning til kollegaen Jørgen Hee var Münter en ferm skribent med en blanding af gejstlig ordrigdom og journalistisk tæft. Læseren følger seancerne med Struensee fra gang til gang, kulminerende med en stærk beskrivelse af Münters oplevelser på skafottet den 28. april 1772.

C.A. Reitzel, København 1846. Stor 8vo. 27 blade, kun trykt på den ene side. Nyere halvbind af rødt gedeskind. * Inger Simonsen 'Den danske Børnebog' s. 55-57, Palle Birkelund 'Dansk Boghaandværk 1482-1948' nr. 248.** Nærmest en fortsættelse af Kaalunds berømte 'Fabler for Børn', der udkom året før i helt tilsvarende udstyr med illustrationer af Lundbye. Det værk blev ikke umiddelbart en succes, men Reitzel har alligevel set en pointe i at prøve igen med Rørbyes livlige og muntre tegninger, der er litograferet i Em. Bærentzens Institut. Nu er både 'Fabler' og 'Fem og tyve Billeder' eftertragtede klassikere.

Værket er i øvrigt et stykke Holbergiana, idet det er et af blot to bøger, hvor Ludvig Holberg som censor har fået anført sit trykte imprimatur.
