| Description |
|
| The title page of this generously illustrated study of designs for heraldry drawn by the German artist Hans Baldung (d. 1545) bears the inscription: "Vom Verfasser als Geschenk erhalten. Juli 1895." Koetschau thus noted that the author had given him the book as a gift. At that time, he was not yet the Director of the Ducal Collection of Art and Antiquities at the Veste Coburg (1897-1902), where these drawings by Baldung are preserved. This rare edition is in few libraries in North America.
