Dictionnaire Portatif de Bibliographie, contenant plus de 17,000 articlesde Livres rare . ..

Paris: Fournier Frères, 1805 First edition of Fournier's rare book bibliography, which, according to Brunet, is based on Fournier's 1796 abridgement of Cailleau's DICTIONNAIRE BIBLIOGRAPHIQUE (1790), entitled ESSAI PORTATIF DE BIBLIOGRAPHIE. Fournier's expansion of that early effort, first printed here, is itself an important predecessor to Brunet's own later CATALOGUE DU LIBRAIRE ET DE L'AMATEUR DE LIVRES First edition. 8vo. [3], viii, 404, [2] pp. Fine contemporary mottled calf, gilt-rolled border, red leather spine label, marbled endpapers, edges stained red. Slight browning to text, otherwise a handsome copy. Bookplate of U. Proose (20c bookplate) on pastedown, and discreet stamp on title page. Brunet II 1360
