Ten 24mo booklets. 154pp, continuously paginated. The whole reproduces Covarrubias Orozco's seminal dictionary, originally published in 1611 by Luis Sanchez in Madrid, and long the authoritative resource on Spanish etymology and lexicography. This facsimile reproduces the book in miniature, with nine of the book's pages (now approx. 1 3/4 in.) to one sheet. Each booklet staple-bound in self-wrappers. Mild soiling to outer wrappers, loss to upper corner of rear cover of final booklet, else near fine.
