[QUOTE="Ex Libris, post: 9561397, member: 14916"]Welcome to this forum! About your German book, printed in Frankfurt by the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matth%C3%A4us_Merian_the_Younger']Merian family[/URL]. I always try to look up the book in Google books to see if it is complete and it seems complete in your case: [URL]https://books.google.nl/books?id=tsxTAAAAcAAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=thumbnail&q&f=false[/URL] I can't find any editions for sale, but I see a facsimile edition from 1961, so there must be some (historical) value in them. [ATTACH=full]457511[/ATTACH] Your mystery pages seem some kind of 18th century advertisements of "medicines". A bit of the German version of snake oil in my opinion and quite funny. I can imagine they have some value for a specialized collector.[/QUOTE]
