This listing is marked SOLD and is no longer available


This is a very rare book, a catalogue of Turin's Royal Armoury. It is chock full of pictures (almost 40 color pictures and almost 400 black and white) of swords, rapiers, daggers, armour, firearms, and artwork from the Turin collection. It includes the famous Turin St. Maurice sword. All items pictured in the 390 black and white pics get descriptions that include some measurements. Yes, all the text is in Italian, but translating apps making reading it a cinch. This is the same publisher as Armi Bianche and other great Italian references. There were only 2,000 of these printed; this is number 1085. A great reference and a rare title. See this
Bookfinder search for some current prices on this book.

This copy is in very good condition. There is a bump to the bottom of the front board and minor bumping to the corners, consistent with a book in its 40th year. The dust jacket shows minimal shelf wear. It also comes with an original plain cardboard slipcase. Some of the seams needs to be reinforced, but it's done its job protecting the book for decades.

Asking $235 or best offer plus shipping. Payment via Paypal, please.
