NOTES
[1] W. H. Willshire, _Playing and other Cards in the British Museum_, 1
vol. 8vo. (1876).
[2] It is often called the Mazarine Bible, because a copy was discovered,
with notes written in it by the illuminator, in the library of Cardinal
Mazarin. It is very scarce. In 1884 Mr. Quaritch bought a very fine copy
from the library of Sir John Thorold, for which he paid £3,900.
[3] _History of Wood-Engraving_, 1883.
[4] An English version, neither faithful nor complete, was published in the
time of Queen Elizabeth, '_At London, Printed for Simon Waterson, and are
to be sold at his shop in St. Paule's Churchyard at Chepegate, 1592._' It
is extremely scarce. Many of the pages, as giving examples of costume, have
lately been reprinted by authority of the Science and Art Department.
There is a French edition of Poliphilo, printed at Paris by Kerver in 1561,
with illustrations in a late florid French style.
[5] In a recent Catalogue, Mr. Quaritch offers no less than seven different
editions of the illustrated 'Livre d'Heures' printed by Verard, at prices
varying from 60l. to 200l.
[6] It was printed, with descriptions in black-letter, at the Chiswick
Press, and published by Joseph Cundall, 12 Old Bond Street, 1840.
[7] It is now issued by George Bell & Sons, who also publish Holbein's
Bible Pictures.
