4to, cont. calf (corners sl. bumped and rubbed), spine on 5 raised bands, red spreckled edges, [20]-340 ff. (outer margin of title and last page strengthened (stamps cut out), title sl. soiled, some stains, hole in margin of last quire). Only edition of this history of the County of Flanders up to 1476 by P. d'Oudegherst (Lille 1540-Madrid 1592), Flemish lawyer and historian, at one time in the service of Emperor Maximilian II, to whom the work is dedicated. The Biographie Nationale attributes part of the text to his father Jean d'Oudegherst (d. 1559). The text is preceded by a prologue by Fabio Masqui d'Urbino. Plantin had too much work with his famous Biblia Polyglotta and had a number of printing tasks done by his colleague Jan (Ver)Withagen. Woodcut historiated initials and ornaments. Mark on title and "Bibliotheca Eenamensis 1742".
