SAME ONE OF VERY FEW COPIES PRINTED ON PINK PAPER (2 or 3 copies only, unjustified). Common to all copies on plain paper, lithography and the form of title are printed on white paper, which is normal.

This joke begins with a note on the curious clocks, and gives the history of the Dijon, which contains Jacquemart, with the story of his translation of Kortrijk in 1382 and details of his restorations: the parts made in Burgundy his honor, etc..

We know that the Burgundian scholar was an avid bibliophile, author of the Manuel du Bibliophile, the first attempt in the genre literature intended for bibliophiles (1823), it was learned from his books a few copies of choices or on colored paper (often pink paper), or vellum. The latter, on pink paper, has undoubtedly been provided by the author to some friend of his entourage.

Magnificent binding Koehler, a former worker Thouvenin, who made his first exhibition in 1834 where he won the silver medal. He was recognized for the talent he brought to the implementation of short irons and ornaments ... "Mr. Koehler bindings are among the finest in Europe ... that we know well from the beginning he has no superiors." (Minutes of exposure to 1834). It was the favorite of Charles Nodier bookbinder. Its activity seems to have stopped to 1849. This binder is his first production to 1833-1835. The arms were later pushed on the binding, about 1870-1880?

A reference in pencil, no doubt from the late nineteenth century, says, "any scarcity. 300 -"

Provenance: This copy of the library of Count Mark Vesvrotte with his ex libris heraldic engraved, gold and weapons on the dishes (circa 1880?). Marc Vesvrotte was a distinguished bibliophile bouguignon the second half of the nineteenth century. He possessed unique books.
