Fredrik Christaan Rynhard (…)’, dated to 1783 and signed by the publisher Gisbert Timon van Paddenburg. The complete set counts 18 books. The set looks very appealing due to the uniform leather bindings, the books show some pencil marking and have considerable water damage but the construction is solid. NB: in the first volume a signature is missing (pages 29-32). A modern copy has been made and added to the book as an inlay. The twelve volumes of the actual periodical all have an engraved title page: C.Geelen inv., Iz. de Wit Jansz. sculp. (I), J. Buijs inv., Iz. de Wit Jansz. sculp. (II-IV), J. Buijs inv. et del., C.Brouwer sculp. (V-XII). Handwritten ownership signature in first volume F.D. 't Onstein (?).
