<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ex Libris, post: 10362942, member: 14916&quot;]First the book with the title Tractatus de Effectibus et Defectibus Clausulae Codicillaris. It is printed in Torino, Italy in 1609. (<a href="https://www.google.nl/books/edition/Tractatus_de_effectibus_et_defectibus_Cl/fN5GAAAAcAAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.nl/books/edition/Tractatus_de_effectibus_et_defectibus_Cl/fN5GAAAAcAAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=0" rel="nofollow">Google Books</a>). I cannot see on the photo&#039;s if it is a vellum or paper binding. The publishers normally sold the book with a simple paper binding (called a publishers binding). The customer brought the book to a book binder to let it bind to their own taste. </p><p><br /></p><p>The title on the book seems for us in an unusual place, but that was quite common for early modern books. It was called a fore edge title. This was done because sometimes books were placed on the shelves as we call now backwards.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]521395[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]521396[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
