GREGORY XVI, Pope]. [VIDA, Marcus Hieronymus]. Cremonensium orationes III. Adversus papienses in controversia principatus . Cremona: [Johannes Mutius and Bernardinus Locheta], 1550. 8 o (140 x 96 mm). Collation: * 2 (blank, woodcut frontispiece, title-page) A-R 8 (text, errata). (Some very occasional pale spotting or browning.) 19th-century mottled sheep, sides with a gilt fanfare design with fleur-de-lis and leafy sprays in the compartments, WITH THE ARMS OF POPE GREGORY XVI, smooth spine gilt, tan morocco lettering-piece, red-stained edges (extremities somewhat rubbed). Provenance : Pope Gregory XVI (binding); J.J.B. Runei (ownership inscription on title-page, 1720); Oliver Henry Perkins (bookplate); Cortlandt F.
