Among the books of comparatively
recent date, if tho seventeenth century
can be described as such, is, az the Ell
2evir collector we'll knows, the famous
"PatiSsier Francois, small duodecimO
printed by Louys and Daniel Elzevir at
Amsterdam III 1886. A faulty and poor
reimprCssion of work of little value
issued in Paris two years previously,
this book has become the most sought
after of all he ElZcvir works, just be-
cause it is wrongly thought to be the
scarcest. 1t has fetched prices reaching
in France az high as 4, 900 francs. The
reason for tho supposed rarity is of
course that, instead of being placed OH
its first appearance on the shelves of the
curious or the studious, tho little vol
ume was thumbed to pieces by the
greasy hands of cooks and kitchen maids.
Genuine enthusiasts i'll the printers art
have hoped to sec the price diminished
in presence of tho revelations lately
furnished concerning it, Its market
value, however, shows no signs of dim
mutton, and that one copy, sold i'll
England during tho last seven or eight
years, fetched at Sothoby's on June 10,
1895, the salo being that of tho Earl of
Oxford, the prcpostcrous price Of 2l00.
