Atlante Nautico di Battista Agnese 1553. Presentazioni di Giandomenico Romanelli - Introduzioni e Commento di Marica Milanesi. Riproduzione in facsimili dell'esemplare Conservato nel Museo Correr di Venizia

Venice: Marsilio Editori, 1990. Hardcover. 24p., followed by XXXIII fullpage doublespread facsimiles in full color, a large atlas (plates 16.5x11.5 inches), the doublespreads separated by blanks. The handsome text-block is in fine shape, from the preliminary blanks through terminal plate and abbreviated colophon. The hard binding (blue-grey papered boards lettered white) has a badly split tail (one-inch gaps both sides) and a much less severely split top rim, plus continuous light abrasion to all extremities and corner-tips - damage perhaps owing to poor packing of this gigantic tome. A good --good only-- copy, much better than "reference" copy. Laid (truncated) in is a large high-gloss brochure advertising the next available facsimile in this series. (Inventory #: 275846)
