Beschreibung
[8],208pp. Without the portrait of Ferdinand V, not issued with all copies. Small folio. Original plain green wrappers, later paper spine label. Front wrapper detached but present, wrappers chipped at edges and lightly soiled. Very clean internally. Very good overall. Untrimmed and partially unopened. The Thomas W. Streeter copy, with his pencil notes on the front free endpaper, though it was not included in the Parke Bernet sale of the Streeter collection. Streeter's note refers to the portrait, presumably issued with some copies: "Smith's introduction mentions a portrait of Ferdinand, husband of Isabella, but Roland Tree [of Henry Stevens Son & Stiles] tell me he has never seen a copy with it." Of the two copies we have handled previously, one of them did have the portrait. From an edition limited to 500 copies. "Among the 33 documents assembled are many of the highest importance on De Soto, Coronado, Cabrillo and other early explorers in the southern portions of the present Republic, from the Atlantic to the Pacific" - Howes. "This important collection contains thirty-three documents relating to the discovery and exploration of Florida, New Mexico, etc., dating from 1516 to 1794, and mostly taken from the archives of Simancas" - Sabin. Early explorations of California are covered as well. "Although bearing a London imprint the volume was published in Madrid by José Rodriguez" - Cowan. HOWES S576. SERVIES 4231. SABIN 84379. GRAFF 3866. PALAU 315194. COWAN, pp.591-92. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers WRCAM58604
