11ff. Reprints text of two love letters by Constant, the French author of Adolphe. According to the colophon, this is the second volume published in a series the publisher called "Biblioteca Minima," seven volumes of which can be identified through references and institutional holdings. The present work is known in a single such holding. Bound in what Spielmann describes as "fawn niger morocco" with a horse figure stamped in gilt on lower corner of front cover. Binding shows some soiling, otherwise nearly fine. (Spielmann 102A; Welsh 2009). (1 1/8 by 1 inch; 28x24mm)
