Die langst gewunschte Cur, des so furchterlichen, und von vielen vor unheilbar geachteten Schaarbocks, durch wenige, doch gewisse, sichere, und gar nicht kostbare Mittel: ... dem ist beygefuget eine kleine Schiffs-Apothecke, oder Labe-Doseabe-Dose
Ben Hertels sel. Frau Wittwe, Und Gleditsch in Commision, 1764. First Edition. Hardcover. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" Tall (tall thin). Good / No Jacket. Item #L057270
Good copy of this rare title. Patterned paper boards. Wear to extremities mainly at the corners, edges and lower half of spine; previous owner's rubberstamp on front and rear attached endpapers; previous owner's color floral design and ink addition on front attached endpaper; few creases to few leaves at the corners and/or foredges; some internal uniform browning and/or foxing to the edges and preliminaries. 174pp. (incomplete, lacking final leaf). Text in fraktur German. Obscure late 18th century medicinal text, apparently related to cancer and its various forms and cures. Not located in NUC (volume 159, pages 689-90 list 3 titles by this author, none in the supplement) nor in BMC (volume 8, page 154, column 701 lists only 2 titles); apparently incomplete (page 174 ends with the catchword 'Freude'); still a fairly legible text, despite exterior appearance, and a very rare work in any event.
