Excerpt from Collection the Emblem Books of Jurisconsult: In the Library of George Edward Sears

The work of Mr. Green is so complete and thorough, that very little is likely to be added in the future, for the benefit of those who may be interested. By receiving careful returns from all the public and private libraries in Europe, he was enabled to accurately collate over 150 separate editions; to give a very correct idea of their comparative rarity and value, together with the most important features of each volume coming under his inspection.

M. George Duplessis of the Bibliotheque Nationale of Paris, has also issued a very neat pamphlet, of the most desirable editions, with a few fac-sim'iles.

To the above, and to the enterprising dealers in rare and curious books, throughout Europe, whose valuable catalogues are so helpful, and so generously distributed to collectors, sincere obligations are felt.

These are the chief sources through whose aid, during several years past, has been secured the gathering recorded in these pages.
