Italy. Lombardia. Gnecchi, F. & E. Le monete dei Trivulzio descritte ed illustrate da Francesco ed Ercole Gnecchi. Milano; Fratelli Dumolard, 1887. 4to., pp. title page printed in red and black, xxxviii, (2), 73, (7); 5 + 8 superb photographic plates of coins pictured against a black background, each with tissue guard. Rather crudely bound in later red quarter morocco and marbled boards with the original wrappers preserved, the spine lettered and decorated in gilt. Heavily rubbed and worn, particularly to the joints, the upper board loose, the backstrip chipped and mostly missing. The contents lightly browned as usual else internally very good. An important work, limited to an edition of just 100 copies, of which this one remains unnumbered, rare thus.
