I.F.F. nr 61 to 67. Complete set of seven plates. Very good impression of the only state (?). Small foxings on the edges to some, one laid down on old laid paper contrecollée, one shot corner to another. Thread margins. Ex collection L. Bongard (the stamp showing slightly on the back of the letter). According to Mariette, the distant would be engraving by Abraham Bosse, wich seems very likely.
