    Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. D. Junii Juvenalis Ey Aulii Persii Flacci Satyrae. Birminghamiae Typis Johannis Baskerville MDCCLXI [John Baskervile. 1761] Hardcover. 240 pages. Full leather binding. Brown leather with gold borders. Raised cords, spine label maroon with gold lettering. An early binding but I doubt it's the original binding. Marbled endpapers. Foreedges marbled. Name signed on blank side of marbled endpaper dated 1876. Book measures 9 x 12 inches. Wonderful wide margins and large type, distinctive traits of Baskerville's best work. Text in Latin. Some light foxing towards the end, but nowhere very aggressive. It seems that Baskerville may have used a different paper for the final 25 pages, as I have seen 2 other copies of this book with foxing beginning in the exact same place, after page 215. Binding tight and attractive with slight wear to the hinges. A very fine copy of a imprint that is instantly recognizably Baskerville's work.
