Description
The Editio Princeps, the First Edition of the Works of Plato in Greek. Folio (312 x 194mm), beautifully bound in its contemporary limp vellum binding, with hand calligraphy to the spine panel, yapp edges. 15 unnumbered leaves, without leaf 16 blank; 502 pages, without the final blank; 439 pages. Aldine anchor device (Fletcher f4) to title-page and verso of the last leaf. A superb copy in excellent condition. Very rare thus, in its original binding, some leaves with very sophisticated, very sympathetic expert re-margining at the bottom outside corners where loss occurred at some time. The restoration has been brilliantly accomplished and is nearly imperceptible.
