[School prizes] 3 Zeeland prizes: (1) Leerzame vertellingen en deugdlievende voorbeelden

voor kinderen. Benevens eenige merkwaardigheden uit het rijk der dieren. Met zes gekleurde plaatjes. Derde druk. Leiden, P.H. Trap, 1817, 84,(3) p., with 6 hand-coloured, engraved plates, bound in strictly contemporary printed cardboard with the vase from the arms of Vlissingen inside a laurel wreath with bow on front board, small 8vo.

An exceptionally well-preserved copy, in part due to a contemporary chintz paper cover, probably applied by the first owner, S. van Dijcke. Before the title a printed school prize filled out by hand from the Schoolcommissie Vlissingen to Van Dijcke, dated 9 September 1817. On the reverse of the title page P.H. Trap has, as with both earlier prints, approved the copy with his signature. The first edition appeared in 1809, the second in 1810 and the seventh in 1860. With two Middelburg school prize bindings around a Dutch (1818, in cardboard, ex library copy but with the prize) and French version (1780, in vellum, lacks prize and 3 ties) of Martinet's Kleine Catechismus (total 3 Zeeland prize bindings).
