Lugduni Batavorum [Leiden]:: Ex officina Elzeviriana [Elzevier], 1634. Hardcover. Good. 24mo. Contemporary vellum. pp. [16], 310, [34] + Engraved title page by Duysent (spotted; contemporary ownership signature at top). Scattered stains, mainly to margins and outer portions of the page, primarily at the beginning and right at the end; some contemporary underscorring. Text in Latin. Copinger 4054; Willems 412n. Edited by Marcus Zuerius Boxhorn (1612-1653). This printing is one of Bonaventura and Abraham Elzevir's famed pocket editions of Latin classics, initiated in 1629 during an expansion of the press. The aim was to ensure wide circulation of accurate texts for everyday use, and the books were printed with engraved title-pages, narrow margins, and a distinctive font of type, cut by Christoffel van Dijck, whose influence on subsequent typographers endured well into the 19th century.
