Note 1622 — Chapter IX
Reading edition
All three of these editions are in the Lenox Library, and the first two are in the Carter-Brown. Cf. Harrisse, Bibl. Amer. Vet., nos. 122, 123, 124. Leclerc priced the Cologne edition at 500 francs, and the Rome (1523) at 350. Bibl. Amer. Vet. nos. 376, 377. Dufossé (nos. 11,003, 12,348) puts the Cologne edition at 500 francs, and again (no. 14,892) at 380. The Court Catalogue (Paris, 1884) shows the Cologne edition (no. 220) and the Rome (1524) edition (no. 221). Brunet is in error in calling the Roman edition the earliest. A Cologne copy in the Murphy sale (1884) brought $75; Catalogue, no. 2,519. One in F. S. Ellis’s Catalogue (1884), no. 188, is priced at £42. Cf. Sabin, xi. 47,038-47,042; Carter-Brown, no. 75; Graesse, iv. 451; Ternaux, no. 129. It was also inserted in Latin in the Novus Orbis of 1537 (p. 585), and of 1555 (p. 524), and in Johannes Bœmus’s Omnium gentium mores, etc., Antwerp, 1542; in Italian in Ramusio (i. 347); in Spanish, in Navarrete (iv. 249, dated October 5, and not 24). The narrative in Hulsius (no. xxvi.) is taken from Ortelius and Chauveton. Cf. Panzer, vol. vi., no. 375; Stevens, Nuggets, no. 1,868; Bibliotheca Grenvilliana, p. 454; Ternaux, nos. 29, 30; Graesse, iv. 451, 452; Bibliotheca Heberiana, i. 4,451; ii. 3,687; vi. 2,331; vii. 4,123; Leclerc, no. 69; Bibl.
