It purports to be a 1530 edition. I have it on my watch list, but have
not yet bid on it (probably for the same reasons most of us haven't).
It's currently going for around $12 US, but that was an hour or two ago,
and I don't believe the unspecified reserve has been met. I hate that...
what ever happened to the old, "Bidding will start at $5000," ?
