CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. - COLLECTION... - Lot 42 - Rossini
CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. - COLLECTION of the Constituentoix of the English Colonies, confederated as the United States of North America. Philadelphia, Et se vend à Paris, Cellot&Jombert, 1778. In-12, marbled calf, cold-lettering, decorated spine, blond title coin (contemporary binding). Sabin, number 68448. First translation into French, by the Duke of La Rochefoucauld, of the founding texts of the Constitution of the United States of America. The Loix that I have gathered together seemed to me one of the most beautiful monumens of human wisdom; they constitute the purest Democracy that has ever existed; they already seem to bring happiness to the Peoples who have submitted to them (Epistle to Benjamin Franklin). Pleasant example, despite a restored corner and a small snag in the headdresses. A few slight freckles.
