Cats. 8 and 17 were issued from Vienna (17 was the next-to-last from there). Cat. 8 comprised items from the library of Dr. Eduard Langer and "sold out within a few months" (A Rare Book Saga, p. 352, though it was not Kraus's first illustrated catalogue as stated there).

All the glories of western civilization, as evidenced in its print and visual culture, are within these pages.
A great resource and reference for cataloguing.

Item #1925.
