PEREZ DE VALENCIA, Jaime. Expositio in Cantica Canticorum Salomonis . Valencia: Lambert Palmart, 19 May, 1486. 2 o (295 x 217 mm). Collation : A 6; a-m 8 n 6 o 8. 115 leaves (of 116, lacking the first blank). 41 lines and headline. Gothic types 2:142 (text of the Cantica Canticorum, headlines) and 3:104 (expositio). 2 columns except on leaf 6 (here at front). (Worming at gutter mostly repaired, gutter margins of A, m-o completely renewed.) Disbound, remnants of old wrapper on several gatherings. A RARE PRODUCTION FROM THE FIRST PRESS AT VALENCIA.
