Farquharson Sharp, Catalogue of a Collection of Early Printed Books in the Library of the Royal Society (London, 1910); de Ricci notes that in 1873 the Royal Society sold books to Quaritch; this disposal might account for why this book is not in the 1910 catalogue, nor in the Sotheby's sale catalogue of 4 May 1925.
