PHANTASTICUS REMUNDI. Paris: 10 April 1499, by Jehan Petit (printer's brand) and Guiot le Marchand. 4th. 85 pages. Figures and diagrams in the text. Very short margins affecting the marginal notes. Nineteenth-century encyclopaedia, with the spine restored, in leather with golden irons framing the planes, and on the edges and eyebrows, water-based wallpaper. Nice exlibris 'Thos Gaisford'. Good state of preservation. Second printing only four days after the first one (April 6th), with the misprints corrected, slight variations and the mark of the printer-bookmaker Jean Petit.
