(Anonymous). Le Louis d'or politique et galant. Cologne, Marteau, 1695. In-12, red morocco, wide gilt lace framing the boards, ornate smooth spine, gilt edges (later binding). Rare. Anonymous first edition, often confused with "La Pistole parlante ou métamorphose du Louis d'or", by Samuel Isarn in 1660. A piquant satire against Louis XIV, seen through the experiences of a talking louis d'or, the author severely criticizes the great king's political actions and private morals. First cover spotted, inside fresh (Brunet III, 1187- Techener 2024 - Drujeon, livres à clefs, p. 552).
