* The only translation into Dutch of this curious
fantasy novel, first published in 1919. Jacket with a long text: an
extensive, high-and-mighty tongue-in-cheek description. Fine binding
design by Johan Briedé: a frog on the Holy Cross. The printer's mark,
a busy dung beetle (!) was designed by Briedé, too. Exact translation
of the title: "Jurgen. A History of Justice. Translation by J.A.
Sandfort". Very rare!
