SOLIS, Virgil (1514-1562). Biblische figuren. Frankfurt: David Zöpfel, Johann Rasch and Sigmund Feyerabend, 1560.

First edition of a series of biblical woodcuts by the prolific Nuremberg engraver Virgil Solis. These fine and popular designs, intended for non-reading members of the Christian public, went through an expanded second edition in 1562 and were copied in a number of later 16th-century bibles. This copy contains numerous interleaved annotations by a 16th-century priest. Adams S-1400; BL/STC German Books 819; USTC 616779; VD16 S 6973.

Quarto (191 x 148mm). Title printed in red and black, 147 half-page woodcuts by Virgil Solis, interleaved with old paper containing manuscript annotations (faint spotting and staining, 8 leaves with lower margins cut away and replaced at an early date). Early 17th-century red dyed vellum (lightly worn); modern green cloth slipcase, morocco spine label lettered in gilt. Provenance: Silberegg, Austria, Elias Habercet (protestant priest, d.1612; his ex-libris on title. The book was used as a stammbuch, with liturgical rites and other manuscript entries added chiefly between 1600-1603) – Furstlich Oettingen-Wallersteinsche Bibliothek (according to an inscription, sold at auction in Munich by Karl & Faber in 1936) – Schweinfurt, Otto Schäfer (monogram on rear pastedown).
