8vo., First [?and Sole] Edition, on laid paper, some very mild age-staining; late eighteenth century full calf, neatly rebacked in calf to style, original leather label gilt preserved, red edges, a remarkably fresh, crisp copy. With the engraved armorial bookplate of a town museum and the donor's original signed presentation slip on front paste-down. Scapula's 'Lexicon' was first published by Henri Stephanus in 1557. This Appendix is dedicated to Anthony Askew (1722-1774), founder of the Bibliotheca Askeviana, and an eminent Classical scholar educated at Emmanuel College Cambridge and at Leiden. He became MD in 1750 and was appointed physician to St. Bartholomew's and Christ's hospitals, and registrar of the College of Physicians. Himself the author of a manuscript volume of Greek inscriptions, his outstanding library was sold by Baker & Leigh in 1775. See Quaritch (DEBC, p. 323). 'Askew's house was crowded with books up to the garrets. The collection was chiefly Classical, and it was its possessor's aim to have every edition of a Greek author' ([Sale catalogue of the] Bibliotheca Askeviana. Sive Catalogus Librorum Rarissimorum, Baker & Leigh, 1775). The sale of his library lasted twenty days and realised a total of £3,993 0s 6d; the principal purchasers were Dr. Hunter, Mr. Cracherode, the British Museum, and the kings of England and of France. Askew's manuscripts (presumably including those pertinent to the present work) were catalogued separately; their sale took place in 1785. The sale catalogue indicates that an appendix to Scapula's Lexicon was edited by Dr. Chas Burney in 1789 so it is likely that the present work is the title referred to. Charles Burney (1757-1817), classical scholar, was the son of Charles Burney the musician and musicologist. Since Burney the younger published numerous tracts and papers relating to Greek literature he could well be the author, but we have been unable to verify this attribution from any other source. Extremely scarce.

193228247New York: Harcourt Brace & Company. 1932. First Printing. Hardcover. No. 214 of 260 signed and hand-numbered copies 250 of which were placed on sale. Mild foxing to spine very good. Price sticker or something similar stuck to rear of frontispiece was removed roughly and has thinned the page of the frontispiece without breaking through but the stain has offset to the page before the frontispiece. Another price sticker was successfully removed from the front free endpaper but its stain affects the front pastedown and the verso of the front free endpaper. Finally a third sticker on the verso margin of the colophon page has bled through to the blank margins of the colophon page as well as to its facing page the verso of the front free endpaper. Essentially there are 3 sticker stains all on blank areas of the preliminary leaves. The book is partially unopened and very good with foxed spineThe slipcase is present and while it has tears there is no splitting of the joints. A very acceptable copy of an uncommon book signed by both Sandburg and Angle.; Small 4to 8 1/2 x 11; 357 pp . Harcourt, Brace & Company hardcover books

The text lavishly illustrated with tipped-on black-and-white plates and color plates charts and diagrams has been divided into several parts. <br /> <br /> From Roberto Salvini eminent professor of the University of Florence comes the grand account of the whole and its parts; from Ettore Camesasca a distinguished younger scholar comes an exacting study of the literary and critical sources that have accumulated since 1541 when the completed Chapel was unveiled concerning each scene and figure as well as ceremonies architectural aspects and contemporary letters poems and drawings; Professor Carlo Ragghianti of the University of Pisa contributes a summation of the system of decoration. <br /> <br /> Descriptions historical background documents and literature and great events are covered and there is a full apparatus of notes and bibliography. <br /> <br /> The second volume is devoted to extraordinary full-page color platesseveral of them multipaged fold-outs. Not only are whole walls and ceilings shown in stunning totality but actual-size details of the frescoes make it possible to examine these with cinematic clarity. The result is an overwhelming effect of power and immediacy; no visitor to the Chapel itself can receive all the impressions this book provides" From the Publishers. <br /> <br /> There are a total of 323 illustrations including 260 in full color. The text is printed on high quality laid watermarked paper with deckled edges. Abrams hardcover
