A Definite Brag
At a tag sale today, for $3.50 I picked up the following
copy of the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius: The Emperor Marcus Antoninus. His Conversation With Himself. Together With the Preliminary Discourse of the Learned Gataker. As Also, the Emperors Life, Written by Monsieur Dacier, and Supported by the Authorities Collected by Dr. Stanhope. To which is added the Mythological Picture of Cebes the Theban, &c. Translated into English from the Respective Originals by Jeremy Collier, London, 1701, printed for Richard Sare. All calf or leather. Unfortunately, the spine cover is missing and the front and back boards are detached, but in good condition otherwise. The three sided gilt is worn. The binding of the pages is still tight. One of the best finds I have ever had. Francis A. Miniter |
