[Hospital History]. HOSPITAL (The) general of Paris. In Paris, by F. Muguet, 1676. In-4, [1] f. (title), [2] f., 123 p., contemporary brown calf, spine ribbed, title-piece, gilt mark in the centre of the boards, speckled edges (binding rubbed, spine gilt, 2 corners dulled; some light browning, some soiling to title). Work containing the history of the establishment followed by rulings, orders and royal decrees. Two leaves seem to have been removed (before the title and before page 1), yet the copy conforms to the one described in the BnF. It even seems to contain 2 additional introductory leaves which contain the list of the directors of the hospital with the dates of their reception. Attached is a Déclaration royale touchant l'Hôpital de Paris, dated 15 May 1758 (Paris, Simon, in-4, 3 p.). Provenance: gilt mark on covers, "Hospital général" with fleur-de-lis; Maurice Ducoté, Rouen (20th c. bookplate).
