MONOGRAPHS
Ravel, Oscar. Les "Poulains" de Corinthe. Monographie des Statères Corinthiens. 2 volumes: Tome I (de 650 a 415 av. J.-C.), Basel 1936, 134 pages, plates I-XXIII, neat pencil notes on some plates, laid in "Notes et Documents" RBN 1949, p. 123. Tome II (de 414 a 300 av. J.-C.), London 1948, 310 pages, plates XXIV-LXXVIII, reviews in pocket affixed to inside back cover. 8vo (16x24cm), terracotta three-quarter leather, spines with 5 raised bands, ruled and gilt letters. Spines slightly rubbed. Fine. CS 2545, Daehn 4278
A note from BCD: Volume I of this fundamental piece of scholarship is almost unobtainable in its original form. This particular copy belonged to Willy Schwabacher and has his added penciled notes. The three reviews in the pocket of the second volume reveal that there is a lot more to be learned on the subject of Corinthian staters.
