Peter-Gilmont, Bibliotheca Calviniana, III, 65/8. Rare octavo edition of Calvin's famous work, actually printed in Geneva one year after Calvin's death and with a false place "Lyon" stated on the title page. The half-page woodcut on verso of the title-page with an allegorical woodcut portrait of the 'True Religion' which is actually the printer's stamp of P. Haultin, in which one of three folio editions appeared in the same year (see Baudrier III, 98). Peter and Gilmont assume that the actual printer was Jean II Frellon, a friend of Calvin. - Visit our website for additional images and information.
