Provenance: Francis Douce (1757-1834); armorial book-plate. Bequeathed in 1834. This item was stolen from the Bodleian by Bruno Pagano (b. c.1942), using the name ‘C. B. Poli' on 12 June 1978, and was recovered on 14 Sept. 1978. The valuation ‘£3200' was pencilled in on the front pastedown by the thief. The ink-written shelfmark ‘Douce 92' has been bleached from inside the upper cover, as have the impressions of the circular Douce stamp from both the title-leaves; the paper shelf number has also been almost completely removed from the foot of the spine. The site of the Douce book-plate has been covered up by pasting over it a copy of the anonymous [Trotter] book-plate, which does not belong here. Now restamped; a new Douce book-plate has been inserted.

SHELFMARK: Douce 92(1).
