Catalogus Historico-Criticus Librorum Rariorum...

One engraved headpiece. 16 p.l., 735, [1] pp. 8vo, cont. half-vellum & speckled boards (some wear, several leaves with minor marginal worming). Hamburg: C. Herold, 1747. Third augmented edition of an important and early book on book collecting. There were several 18th-century German bibliographical compilations of rare books and this is the best known and most successful. It is based largely on catalogues of private libraries and is intended to serve both scholars and dealers. Vogt adds remarks about the rarity of each book and its nature. Archer Taylor considers this to be a forerunner of Brunet and Graesse and has pointed out that it still can give us valuable information. Good copy. Besterman 907. Taylor, Catalogues of Rare Books, pp. 17-19.
