Volume one containing the first printing of ""Der Grosse-Cophta"", ""Des Joseph Balsamo, genannt Cagliostro, Stammbaum.""Volume two containing the first printing of ""Reineke Fuchs"".Volume four containing the first printing of ""Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre, Drittes - Viertes Buch.""Volume five containing the first printing of ""Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre, Fünftes - Sechstes Buch.""Hagen 14: 1, 2, 4 and 5.Probably due to the book-description on the half-titles of Wilhelm Meister (Drittes Buch etc.), the title-pages of volume four and five have been confused with those of volume five and three, thus volume four is with the title-page of volume five, and volume five with that of volume three.
