Title: Arcanorum Status Libri Decem, 1725-1734
Author: Franz Albrecht Pelzhoffer
Publisher: Francofurti, Apud G.C. Weberum
Condition: Very Good
An extremely scarce early 18th century edition of Pelzhoffer’s Arcanorum Status, a series of treatises on politics, in ten parts, broken down into four volumes, bound into two books. That sure is a fair bit.
Worldcat records eight existing copies of this complete edition in libraries.
These volumes bear the stamps of the dissolved Franciscan monastery known as the Church of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, in Miltenberg.
Four books bound into two vellum volumes in quarto, (16)+548+(38); (8)+443+(28), (16)+766+(18); (8)+445+(14)
These volumes are in very good shape, with minimal rubbing and some old staining to the bindings. There is some worming to the first few and last few leaves of both volumes, mostly affecting the inner margins, but obscuring a few letters. Several leaves are dogeared. There is some foxing and staining throughout.
