We found proof that there exist other copies of this work with the same "defect"), "Editio ultima, juxta exemplar Parisinum, quod nonnullis accessionibus auctius factum & ab auctore recognitum", includes indexes, 16cm., contemporary full vellum binding (intact and in very good condition), text in Latin, text clean and bright, [This work is an abridgement of Petavius' "Opus de doctrina temporum" of 1627 which is considered to be "a fundamental contribution to the study of ancient chronology" (Dictionary of the Christian Church)], Ref.
