ROYAL ALMANACH, year 1777. Paris, Le Breton,... - Lot 14 - Giquello
ROYAL ALMANACH, year 1777. Paris, Le Breton, s.d. [1777]. In-8, red morocco, triple gilt fillet, boards framed with gilt lace formed of various irons and masonic symbols (level in the corners, flaming stars, triple point, seal of David, and two linked hands), fleur-de-lis in the corners, delta point at the bottom mosaic of olive green morocco in the center, the middle hollowed out decorated with three flaming stars and the initial P, ornate spine, fleurs-de-lis repeated, interior scroll, gilt edges (Binding of the time). Remarkable Masonic lace binding executed for a mysterious companion: the lace is of an elegant design and includes Masonic symbols. Masonic bindings are very rare. It can be compared with the Masonic binding reproduced in the catalog of beautiful bindings of the Gumuchian bookshop (pl. XCVII, n°235). Spine faded, traces of rubbing to the binding with small lack at the tail.
