Een goedt Advijs, opt Stuck vande Vrede ende Oorloghe in dese Nederlanden. [Antwerp?, copy imprint:] 1584. 4to. Title-page with decoration built up from braces and a letter O. With a band of cast arabesque fleurons as a headpiece, a cast interlaced initial and a woodcut plain roman capitial. Set in textura types.
(14), (2 blank) pp. Belg. Typ. 1283 (3 copies); Knuttel 706; Tiele, Pamfletten 284; Karlsruher Virt. Kat. (3 copies); cf. Typ. Batava 2119 ([Delft] 1584 ed.); V.d. Wulp 603-605 (other 1584 eds.); not in V. Alphen; Bibl. Belg.; Broekema; Machiels.Pamphlet on the Dutch-Spanish war by an unknown Dutch author (sometimes erroniously atttributed to Marnix van St. Aldegonde) arguing against peace with Spain. It first appeared at Antwerp in French in 1584. The form of the imprint in the present edition ("na de copie, ..." that is, "after the copy, ...") implies that it follows an earlier Dutch edition published in 1584, but the text ends with a statement that it was written at "N." on 20 September 1584, information not to be found in the French original or the edition believed to have been printed in Delft in 1584. The interlaced capital in the present edition comes from a set cast in matrices that originated in Antwerp, where Willem Silvius used it in 1569 and Plantin in 1581. Silvius may have brought a fount to Leiden when he moved there in 1577 and Thomas de Vechter brought matrices there in 1584. We find no evidence against a 1584 date of publication. The paper is watermarked (reading from the mould side, at least in the two sheets of the present copy): -- = 2-handled pot topped by grapes and bearing initials "MD" (joined so that the two letters share a vertical stroke). Briquet and Heawood provide no close match.A very good copy, with most of the deckles intact and including the final blank leaf. Disbound, but with no damage to the folds of the quires. An interesting pro-war pamphlet.

Über uns
ASHER Rare Books celebrates its 175th anniversary!
In 1830 Adolphus Asher (1800-1853) in Berlin established the firm that still bears its name. He quickly became one of the main agents supplying antiquarian books to the British Museum as well as to eminent nineteenth-century scientists such as Alexander von Humboldt and Charles Darwin.
In 1933 the company was forced to leave Berlin and relocated in Amsterdam. From 1946 onwards the company has issued numerous catalogues in the fields of natural history, science and travel and voyages. After the retirement of Nico Israel in 1995, the new owner moved the company to its present location in IJmuiden, about twenty kilometres west of Amsterdam, where it now operates under the name of ASHER Rare Books. The management is formed by Michael J. Roos and Julius W. Steiner.
