                                            Dealer Notes
                            Several indications of early ownership: engraved book plate Ex Libris Winston Henry Hagen to front paste-down of Volume 1, and his circular leather book label to paste-downs Volumes 2-4, earlier armorial book plate, to Volumes 2-4 of John Lyons Nixon with the moto “Spectemur Agendo” (“let us be judged by our acts”). Internally good examples. Please note that binding is rather worn, yet priced accordingly.
