After being startled that there's a book on How to Sharpen Pencils, my brain immediately started noting interesting features:

  *   Translation of a Latin work into French published in Germany
  *   Title page in red and black.
  *   Engraved image on title page.
  *   Engraved initial leaf.
  *   Bound in leather, possibly contemporary, edges possibly gilt
  *   Autographed by an English-speaking female owner (of a book in French published in Germany) ding ding ding   ding ding ding
