tions, and a Swedish glossary. The work concludes with the ceremonial for receiving new members into the guild of printers, which is of interest in the history of Swedish printers’ organisations. It is surprising to see that the Wrst genuinely Swedish printers’ manual was not published until 1853. See Bigmore and Wyman, III 2 and Gaskell, Barber & Warrilow G 11 for German edition; not in Jackson Burke; uncommon. Taxes, TariVs, and Textiles 115 [TEXTILES.] TariVa Tassativa di tutte le qualità delle Pannine e Seterie tanto lavorate, quanto semigrezze, e grezze provenienti da fuori di Stato. Colle respettive Gabelle che si dovranno esigere per l’Introduzione nello Stato PontiWcio e nella Città di Roma. Roma, [30. Giugno] 1788. £1150 4to, pp. [iv], 82, [2] blank; seal of Camera Apostolica to title page; printed throughout within border in various columns; contemporary susanne schulz-falster rare books
decorative wrappers; spine a little worn, with some loss of spine covering at foot; throughout with mss corrections, reXecting the rate changes of 11 July 1788, as attested in the mss note on the Wnal page by Filippo de Felice, Stimatore; a very good copy. A fascinating document charting the taxes and import tariVs applied to all manner of textiles in the PontiWcal States. The tariVs apply to both manufactured and raw fabrics, and all manner of clothing, made out of every conceivable material and in all European countries. In alphabetical order more than a thousand textile products in diVerent sizes are listed, their value is given and then both import and export tax. Values and tariVs applied are printed for 30 June 1788, and then corrected upwards in manuscript for 11 July 1788, by the ‘stimatore’ Filipp de Felice. The textile products come from all parts of Italy, with distinctive price diVerences between similar sounding products from diVerent regions, but also from all over Europe, English wool and camel-hair, German felt, Dutch, French and Spanish products, but also Chinese silk. A fascinating document both of economic and textile history. Rare, KVK lists two copies in Rome, not found in OCLC; not in Kress, Goldsmiths’ or Einaudi. 116 [VALLARDI, Giuseppe.] Catalogo dei Libri d’ogni genere e in varie lingue in assortimento specialmente di quelli pubblicati dalla antica ditta Pietro e Giuseppe Vallardi. Milan, 1833. £380 8vo, pp. [iv], 360; contemporary full cloth, spine lettered in gilt; a good, tight copy. First edition of this detailed priced bookseller catalogue, produced by the Milan Wrm of Vallardi and prepared by Giuseppe Vallardi (1784–1861). The catalogue covers both antiquarian and new books, in the classical languages, Italian, and French, English, Spanish, German and Dutch. Over four thousand titles are arranged in subject areas, beginning with manuscripts, followed by incunables and early printing, classics in Greek and Latin, then books on Wne art in Italian and various other European languages, followed by miscellaneous scientiWc books again Wrst in Italian, then other European languages. A special brief section is devoted to Ebraica and Arabic books, followed by Aldine editions and books printed by Cominus. In each case author, title, year, format, number of volumes, number of illustrations are given, together with the price. Curiously a large number of sixteenth century books are listed and only very few seventeenth century ones. The largest proportion are of course nineteenth century books, with those published by Vallardi marked by an asterisk, for trade discounts. According to the preface an earlier ‘general catalogue’ had been published in 1823, and there is an even earlier record for 1819. The Vallardis were also dealing in prints. OCLC lists a copy at the Grolier Club and the 1823 edition at Georgetown University. catalogue fourteen
