ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

[Anno MCCCCLXXXII augusti vero kalendas XVII impressum Ulme per ingeniosum virum Leonardum Hol. (Ulm, Lienhart Holle, 16 luglio 1482)]. Foglio del "Tolomeo di Ulm" (prima edizione, del 16 luglio) recante la carta geografica della penisola indocinese impressa in xilografia a doppia pagina su una facciata e il relativo testo descrittivo, stampato su una pagina dell'altra facciata. Il foglio misura mm. 401x523; l'immagine, misura, al filetto esterno della xilografia, mm. 380x300 (nel punto più corto in larghezza) e mm. 380x372 (nel punto più lungo in larghezza). Coloritura a mano originale. Sulla xilografia sono visibili delle ossidazioni dovute alla presenza al verso del foglio d'una cornice e d'una iniziale a stampa miniate con un colore verde che col tempo ha ossidato la carta. Nel 1482 Lienhart Holle pubblicò ad Hulm una edizione della Geografia di Tolomeo basata sulle carte di Nicolaus Germanus (c. 1420 - c. 1490) che aveva prodotto a Firenze una serie di magnifici atlanti manoscritti su pergamena negli anni 60 e 70 del Quattrocento. Il modello sul quale furono esemplate le carte di Hulm fu l'atlante manoscritto che Nicolaus aveva offerto al papa Paolo II e che pare fosse stato inviato appositamente in Germania (senza essere mai più rispedito a Roma: è conservato allo Schloss Wolfegg). L'edizione di Ulm è il primo atlante pubblicato a Nord delle Alpi e il primo con le carte impresse in xilografia (i due incunaboli precedenti della Geografia di Tolomeo - Bologna 1477 e Roma 1478 - recavano carte incise in rame). L'incisore delle xilografie fu probabilmente Johann Schnitzer di Armsheim (il planisfero reca la sua firma). Una delle mappe più ricercate della penisola indocinese, la terza in assoluto, in ordine di tempo, che sia stata impressa in un atlante a stampa. Per quanto riguarda il Tolomeo stampato ad Ulm cfr. Gof P1084; HC *13539; BMC II 538; IC.9309; Schreiber 5031; Sabin 66472; Nordenskiold Collection II, 199.Sheet of "Ptolemy of Ulm" (first edition, July the 16th, 1482) bearing the geographical map of the Indochinese peninsula printed in double-page woodcut on one side and the relative descriptive text, printed on one page of the other side. The sheet measures mm. 401x523; the image measures, to the external fillet of the woodcut, mm. 380x300 (at the shortest point in width) and mm. 380x372 (at the longest point in width). Original hand coloring. On the woodcut you can see some oxidations due to the presence on the back of the sheet of a frame and of an initial illuminated with a green color that over time has oxidized the paper. In 1482 Lienhart Holle published in Hulm an edition of Ptolemy's Geography based on the maps of Nicolaus Germanus (c. 1420 - c. 1490) who had produced in Florence a series of magnificent handwritten atlases on parchment in the 1460s and 1470s. The model on which Hulm's maps were patterned was the manuscript atlas that Nicolaus had offered to Pope Paul II and which seems to have been specially sent to Germany (without ever being sent back to Rome: it is kept at Schloss Wolfegg). The Ulm edition is the first atlas published north of the Alps and the first with the maps printed in woodcut (the two previous incunabula of Ptolemy's Geography - Bologna 1477 and Rome 1478 - had copper engraved maps). The engraver of the woodcuts was probably Johann Schnitzer of Armsheim (the planisphere bears his signature). One of the most sought after maps of the Indochinese peninsula, the third ever, in order of time, which has been imprinted in a printed atlas.

253 pages. Reveals the astonishing story of a young Air Force pilot named Lance Sijan whose valor, dedication to duty, and indomitable spirit were tested under the most extreme condtions. In 1967 Sijan was ejected from his fighter-bomber into the jungle of Laos. Although disable, he dragged himself for six weeks until his capture. He escaped, but upon his recapture was tortured, and revealed no military information. He died in Hanoi. His gallant struggle galvanized other American POWs to resist torture and brainwashing and Sijan was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
