Edited by Lotte Kurras. Two Volumes. Facsimile of first edition originally published in 1615 limited to 500 copies. Contains both the facsimile (German) and the commentary volume (French). Signed in the colophon by the Prefect of the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana Mgr. Alfons M. Stickler. Superb facsimile of the manuscript "Tournament Book" created by Imperial Herald George Rixner in 1615. The lavish manuscript records aristocratic lineage of a south-western German family and depicts the accoutrements and pageantry of the tournament. Please see photos.
