Paris: Raymond Mazieres, 1707. Three volumes of homilies by the Curé of Saint Sulpice. 4th Edition. full leather binding with 6 panels, 2 leather labels to the spine with title and volume. The bindings have some nicking and chipping to them. The surface area is quite pitted. Still attractive. Each volume has vignettes and historiated initials to the beginning of each homily. Each homily has its own title page and date. These were obviously printed as separate homilies and bound together here. Text in French. Vol 1. 1707 4th Edition. This volume has had damage to the bottom edge (looks as if perhaps mice before binding or similar?). As a result, the text block has been shaved to the base (not affecting text).
