6666. It Is In Fine Condition And Complete, Notwithstanding What The Sobolewski Sale Catalogue Says To The Contrary (No.

1730):

It is a small 8vo ff. 84; each quire containing, as is indicated by the register, eight sheets, except quire 1, which has but four.

Grenville added to his copy the following note: "This appears to be the first edition printed in the original Italian. - The Abbe Morelli who sent me this book from Venice had found great difficulty in procuring a copy for the Library of St. Marc. - Panzer III. 396, refers only to the mention made of it by Denis. Supp. I, p'e 415. I know of no other copy in England...."

Lazari, p. 460, says: "Prima e rarissima edizione del compendio veneziano. Un capitolo che parla di Trebisonda, tratto dal viaggio di Fr. Odorico, precede il testo del Polo mutilo e scorrettissimo: quel capitolo non forma pero parte d'esso, come nelle molte ristampe di questo compendio."

See Odoric de Pordenone, par Henri Cordier, p. 9.

Ternaux-Compans (29) mentions an edition of Sessa of 1486, which does not seem to exist.
