HORSES] WINTER, GEORG SIMON. [Wolefahrner Ross-Arzt-engraved title]. Hippiater expertus, seu Medicina equorum absolutissima, tribus libris comprehensa ... [BOUND WITH] WINTER, GEORG SIMON. [Neuer Tractat von der Sutuerey oder Fohlenzucht]. De Adlersflügel Tractatio nova et auctior de re equaria, complectens partes tres. The first work Nuremberg: Wolfgang Moritz Endter (and heirs of Johann Andreas Endter), 1678; the second Nuremberg: Wolfgang Moritz Endter, 1687. The two works bound together in period vellum. 13 1/8 x 9 inches (33 x 20.5 cm); [16, including engraved title with portrait], 490, [10] pp., with numerous engravings in the polyglot text; the second work [24, including engraved title with portrait], 223, [1] pp., with a folding table, polyglot text. The plates include an unnumbered folding plate of a riding academy, plates 1,2, 4-34 (27 and 28 on a single leaf), with the following bis plates: 12 A, B, C; 19 D, E; 21, E, F; and three unnumbered plates with page references, two of which are bound at the end i.e. 43 plates. The binding is worn, stained, and has been restored. The first work has some toning; the second is missing the flap to plate 10, and has some staining to the top margin towards the end. Because of the variable collation of the second work (see below), sold as is, not subject to return. Both of these are rare works, and the first is especially interesting from the aspect of veterinary medicine. OCLC does not indicate plates beyond the engraved title, present here. The second work, which has some exceedingly bizarre plates on horse breeding, exhibits a variable plate count among the copies on OCLC; the Huntington Library example appears to have 48, but many institutional copies have considerably fewer plates. There is no evidence of excised plates (beyond the missing plate flap), and it may be that the full count of bis plates was not issued in all copies. The engravings in the first work are by Cornelius Nicolaus Schurtz and in the second by Peter Troschel. The first is Krivatsky 13055; the second is Huth Works on Horses and Equitation 24. C
