BLANC (Antonin)] Memoir on the possibility of establishing in Bordeaux a sufficient number of fountains. Bordeaux, Michel Racle, 1787. In-4: 79pp; illustrated with one plate out of text and three large folded tables in fine and one large folding map with small colour highlights "Plan géométral de la ville et faubourg de Bordeaux - London, 1787". Light stain in the margin at the corner at the head. Contemporary boards, cover paper missing on spine. In addition to the very interesting hydrographic content, one will notice the typography in round type used by Racle for the introduction and the tables. Well completed with the large folding map which is rarely found.
