AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This small 12mo edition of 74 pages (plus epistle) is a rare counterfeit published in the same year as the original edition of the famous tragedy by Thomas Corneille, in Amsterdam, at A. Wolfgang. It features the characteristic Quaerendo vignette on the title page. Its pretty bradel binding is in half-percaline, with gilding (including the title on the spine). The covers and the spine are rubbed and the corners slightly worn (see photos).
