An exceptionally rare and historically significant Dutch legal and commercial handbook, Regtsgeleerd, Practicaal en Koopmans Handboek, authored by Joannes van der Linden in 1806. This work served as a comprehensive guide for judges, practitioners, merchants, and anyone seeking a broad overview of legal knowledge in the early 19th century.
Van der Linden was a prominent legal scholar whose works influenced Dutch jurisprudence and commercial law. This edition is particularly valuable for its authentic connection to the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek (Z.A.R.), evidenced by the library stamp inside, making it a piece of both European and South African legal heritage.
Binding: Original dark hardcover with gilt lettering on spine.
Pages: 588 pages, complete and intact.
Ownership Marks: Previous owners name handwritten inside, along with a Z.A.R. library stamp.
Interior: Pages show age-related toning, with some writing, but remain legible.
Overall: A solid copy, well-preserved for its age (over 220 years old), with typical wear consistent with historical use.
This book is highly collectible due to:
Its age (published in 1806).
Its importance in Dutch legal and commercial history.
The Z.A.R. stamp, which ties it to South African heritage.
The completeness of the volume (all 588 pages present).
