18. Antverpiae ( Antwerpen ), Guilielmum Lestaenium , 1639, in-4°, 30 x 19 cm, (8) nn pp + 523 pp + (18) nn pp ( index), (complete), bound in contemporary full calf over wooden boards, raised spine with gilt title, with two copper clasps ( in working order), both covers extensively blind tooled. After a very carefull examination one can find that the book has been rebacked. This has been done in such a way that it is hardly discernable. Provenance: With the manuscript ex-libris of the Brussels' Jesuit College, dated 1640. On the verso of the first fly leaf is written '' Dono admodum Rd. D. Auberti Miraei Decani Ecclesia D.V. Antverpiae '' (Ex-dono from the reverend Aubertus Miraeus, canon of Our Lady's [cathedral church] in Antwerp). Tipped in just before the title a broadside, printed on the recto side only. ''Roma, July 1637, no printer, author Faminianus Strada, title :Ivdicivm de Cronico Belgico V.CL. Auberti Miraei''. ( a laudatory letter by Strada on this publication by Miraeus). Alo with the manuscript ex-libris of L. De Rooren, with a note in French on the author (19th c.). Very fine copy of this esteemed chronicle of Dutch history. The laudatory letter by Strada on this publication was probably inserted by the author himself.
