I rarely get to post about books on the forum so didn’t want to waste a chance to post from my oldest “sports” book John Potter’s Antiquities of Greece published 1697. Containes a very early history of the original Olympic Games

For a fascinating investigation into rare book forgery, that reminds me of some of the trimming investigations, try Carter and Polkard, Enquiry into certain nineteenth century pamphlets, a definite classic. There are also many follow ups.
I second the Newton,Rosenbach etc recommendations. There are many more, I have actually been rereading some during the quarantine. |

I assume that's one of your favorite collection pieces. Nothing like really, really old 'firsts'.
