Printed by T. Bensley, Bolt Court, for J. White, at Horace's Head, London. 1803. Second and best edition, with additions. Engraved front portrait, (8), xxiv, 240 pages + 31 engraved full page plates, 7 plates hand coloured. Folio (48 x 31 cm). Contemporary full leather, all edges gilt, spine with six raised bands and richly gilt decorated, gilt inner bordures, marbled end papers. Edges worn, boards scratched, spine worn & faded, Lars Laurentii’s bookplate and inscribed by him, a few pages with mild foxing. ”Thomas Astle’s work was intended to be comprehensive; as an antiquarian, he was particularly interested in the earliest forms of writin. His study of these early forms relates naturally to the first part of the present exhibition; he has nothing to say on more recent handwriting, and shows a greater concern for the more exotic alphabets than for the roman.” (V&A 212). ”Vi sono esemlari in carta grande, formato in folio.” [There are examples on large paper, in folio format.] (Bonacini 105).
