Lyon, Antoine Tardif, 1584. 2 volumes in-folio of [8]-27 (chiffr. 1-6 et 11-31)-1bl-678-2bl.-[154]-2bl. and [28]-745-3bl.-[104] pages, ivory vellum (period binding). French translation by Antoine du Pinet. The Natural History is Pliny's only surviving work; it provides irreplaceable information on geography, zoology and botany in antiquity. The treatise on ancient pitch and measures is bound at the beginning of the first volume. The 2 tables have their own dated title, a few browned quires, otherwise a good copy. (Baudrier IV, 370, erroneous collation).
