Note

"Sonoui aggionte 29. Figure che fanno in tutto Fig. 78"--Colophon. In addition to the 78 full-page labelled diagrams of palms, there are a t.p. vignette of a scholar, a cut on t.p. verso of a teacher (signed I.C.), a printer's device of a bull at the colophon (signed with a cross), and representations of various palmar markings within the text.
"Apparently a reprint. The preface of the author is dated 1635, but this is probably a misprint for 1535. The appearance of the book points to the end of the sixteenth century"--BM.
Imprint from colophon.
