Unpaginated. A charming facsimile of The Tulip Book, which the Rijksmuseum reports as the possibly the only fully preserved 17th-century tulip catalog, compiled during the Dutch tulip craze of the 1630s. This particular book was owned by Dr. Nicholas Tulp, and the facsimile reproduces his bookplate. Bound in paper over boards replicating the binding of the original. (2 3/8 by 1 5/8 in.)
