    Description

    [Martial] Marcus Valerius Martialis. Epigrammaton. Libri XIIII. Venice: Ottaviano Scoto, [1542]. Krown & Spellman retail: $500. Folio. A-B8,C6,D-Q8,R10. [4],cxxxviff=270pp. Old vellum, new labels, front hinge split, large marginal repair to t.p. (minor loss to imprint and printer's mark); corner dampstain and worming with repairs (minor text affects). Printer's device on t.p. [Donna sale su un albero di melograno per coglierne i frutti che getta ad un'altra donna seduta ai piedi dell'albero. (A102 - V467 - Z828)], historiated initials. From the Krown & Spellman Collection.

    More Information: Martial (ca. A.D. 40-ca. 104), Roman poet of Spanish origin, is best remembered for his epigrammatic depiction of daily human life and the wit of his satire.  He was a close associate of Frontinus, Juvenal, Silius Italicus, Quintilian, and Pliny the Younger. Despite the date on the spine and in an old hand on the t.p., we believe this is the 1542 edition and can find no trace of a Scotus 1506 ed. EDIT 16 CNCE 33519. Schweiger II,595. BM STC (Ital.) 420.

    The pre and post sales experience was wonderful and flawless. Heritage has the best in-house operation I have ever seen and their people are not only professional but fun to work with, especially Steve C.

    As for Heritage's online system… Yes the interface is more complex than what we are used to with SAN but what is behind that interface is amazing for sellers and buyers alike. It is real time and for a real serious auction buyer there is nothing better in the auction industry, bar none.
