‎Pantheum Mythicum seu fabulosa Deorum Historia . Hoc Epitomes eruditionis volumine breviter dilucidéque comprehensa.‎

‎"11. Amsterdam, Anthoni Schoonenburg, 1730, in-8°, engraved title + typographical title (printed in red and black) + (12)nn pp + 298 pp + (14)(index) ; with 27 copper-engravings. ( engravings signed in the plate: J. van Viaenen ). Bound in contemporary vellum over boards, vellum with gilt decoration andf central arms on both covers. Traces of ties. The arms are unidentifiable because they are worn ( perhaps the binder applied not enough pressure ?). There is a worm gallery at pages 260-284 ; mostly in the blank inner margin and thus rarely affecting the text. Still a fine copy in a handsome binding. (See De Backer-Sommervogel Vol. VI col. 975-978. Pomey ( 1618 - 1673) first published this very popular work in Lyon in 1658. This Amsterdam edition from 1730 is the first in the reworked version of Pitiscus. It was reprinted 6 times until 1741.."‎
