century Lyonnais imprint in what was once a very nice calf binding, with gold
tooled medallion stamps on the front and back covers. There are also narrow
(.75 cm.) gilt banners (scrolls?) above and below each of the medallion stamps.
On the back covers these banners read "Lutetiae" and "1566

are the former owner's first and last names, although most of both of those
have been thoroughly scratched out. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
