Default Mathesis Juvenilis - J C Sturm - Collation/Info required

So, a recent eBay purchase, for no rational reasons (dont you find these are
often the most satisfying, was this:

Johann Christopher Sturm - Mathesis Juvenilis - 1711 - Nuremberg - Hoffmann

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...tem=6940729347

The listing was badly done - this latin book with roman type was described
was 'German black letter'.

Meant to be in two volumes, I beleive mine to be the first, but its a
weighty tome, and would like to see a colation of the full set - here is a
description of mine.

Half title,
Title page,
5 leaves of 'Generosa prosapiae pariter ac indolis adolescenti carolo
nutzelio'
1 leaf of 'Praemonitum ad Lectorum'
14 leaves of 'Benevololectori Salutem & Obfequia'
884 numbered pages.

So, can anyone help? I cant find a copy in the BL, nor any of this specific
edition on Worldcat - am I being dense? Googling provides one example of the
same edition, described in two volumes, but goes no further in its
description.

Cheers,

Tom L-M

OCLC reports 3 copies: Michigan, Princeton, NY Public Library.

I've sent you the details offline. Are you starting a mathematics
collection? If so, highly commendable.
