which represents Celtes presenting his book to the Emperor; the figure of Philosophy,
which bears the artist's mark (a D within an A); and the one on the last page of the

General Index to the Handbook and Collections (1867-1889), by J. G. GRAY. 20s 1893
IN THE PRESS.

A new volume of Mr. Hazlitt's Bibliographical Collections and Notes, representing
the gatherings of the last eight or nine years, not only from the sale rooms, where so
many remarkable libraries have in this interval been dispersed, but from further
labours at the British Museum and at the numerous collections deposited at Oxford and
Cambridge. The result of these manifold researches has been to bring together some
thousands of titles, among which are numerous items of the first rarity and others
derived from fragments of works hitherto and otherwise unknown.

The impression of this new addition to the Hazlitt Series will be most strictly limited
to one hundred and fifty copies, all of which, it is estimated, will be required for public
institutions, so that any private buyer, desirous of possessing the volume, should
forward his name and address to me as soon as possible. The price cannot be
exactly fixed, as it will depend on the cost; but the sole object will be to avoid
actual loss.

Roy. 4to., title, pp. 47, and 2 plates of facsimiles; sd.

Privately printed, 1901

The author sets the printing of his Catholicon down to 1445. He cites two books dated 1448 Innocent III's De Miseria humane Conditionis " Hain.. No. 998" (destroyed at Strassburg) and “Chiromancie du Docteur Hartlicb" (evidently in French) in the Bibl. Nationale,- -as genuine impressions of that year. One hardly needs to read further, except just to glean the assurance that the "Mazarine Bible" was not printed till 1470.
