Full Leather. Condizione: Near Fine binding. 8vo; rebound in a most handsome period binding; unpaginated; with some writing on the first leaf. ~~According to a loose leaf laid in the book, there is no title page because these were printed to be put in the Geneva translation of the Bible as a concordance. There are several editions. This was printed by Christopher Barker [Printer to her majesty the Queen], and not one of his deputies. Therefore would have had to be printed by or before 1599 when Barker died. All editions until 1615 have the date 1578 on the second leaf, as this copy does. ; title label says "Hervey's Tables" rather than "Herrey's Tables" Near Fine binding.
