Schwerdt. "Three hundred copies only of this book have been printed and all plates have been destroyed. This copy is no. 99. [Signed] C.F.G.R. Schwerdt." Some of the frontispieces, plates, portraits and facsimiles are colored, some folded and some mounted. V. 1-3 were published in 1928 and v. 4 in 1937. Limited first edition, of this beautifully decorated catalogue of the collection of Charles Francis George Richard Schwerdt, on hunting, hawking & shooting, catalogued by H. Collmann and others. The volumes are hand numbered 238 (of 300), except for volume 4, which was published 9 years after the first 3, but it, like volume 1, is signed by the author below the limitation statement. Schwerdt (1862-1939) was a passionate book collector who first started collecting books on all sports and later narrowed his collecting down to the sports of hunting, hawking and shooting, resulting in the collection displayed in the present catalogue. After his dead in 1939, the collection containing printed books and manuscripts, was sold in four auctions at Sotheby's in 1939, and two more in 1946. In fine condition, with the pages untrimmed and only a few very minor marginal stains. The binding very good, with only the corners a bit worn. No. 289 of the beautifully illustrated catalogue of Schwerdt's collection on hunting, hawking and shooting, bound by Kelly & Sons.

The rare first edition of one of the most beautiful books on horses, the present copy being the only one in contemporary colour to appear on the market since 1975 (according to ABPC). "Un des plus beaux ouvrages qui aient paru en France sur le cheval" (Mennessier de la Lance). An outstanding collectors item by virtue of the paper, composition, and the beautiful engravings by Parrocel. The engravings in charming colour show horsemen, bridles, saddles, horseshoes, the horses skeleton, etc. Differing collations provided by various bibliographies are due to the fact that the illustration "Allures naturelles", here a double plate, is usually divided into two parts. Slightly browned, with occasional dampstaining. Margins and corners occasionally reinforced. Signatures: ã⁴ A-2M⁴ 2N². Illustrations: Added engraved title-page; 23 engraved plates; 3 large engraved equestrian head-pieces; engraved arms of Prince Charles de Lorraine heading dedication; engraved tail-piece; woodcut initials. Engravings by Laurent Cars, Jacques-Philippe Le Bas, Nicolas-Dauphin de Beauvais, Jean Audran, Nicolas Henri Tardieu and others after Charles Parrocel.
