This is a remarkable and very rare book consisting of 3 large parts paginated separately; 660 535 416 pp. an index for all 3 parts which is 50 or more pp. long. All are bound together in a massive tome of unadorned vellum in good-only condition; the front board is warping beginning to split at the bottom near the spine; vellum soiled and the page edges have turned very dark. May have been rebound some time long ago; the endpapers are thicker than the text pages though they are laid paper; and the headbands are remarkably whole and unworn. The binding is quite tight. Front pastedown is marred with a few odd probably recent stains. Text pages are darkened to a deep cream but are free of foxing and quite legible if you can read the German Fraktur typeface.
