LAVICOMTERIE (Louis). The Crimes of the Popes, from St. Peter to Pius VI. Paris: Bureau des Révolutions de Paris, 1792. In-8, 5 ff.-608 pp., speckled sheepskin, plain spine richly decorated, title label in burgundy morocco, marbled edges (contemporary binding). First edition illustrated with 9 engravings, including 3 by Ransonnette. Louis-Charles de Lavicomterie de Saint-Samson (1746–1809) was a deputy from the Seine department to the National Convention. According to Quérard, the work *Les Crimes des Papes* has become rare due to the zeal of individuals who bought up copies in order to destroy them (Quérard, IV, 638). Some signs of wear on the binding, wormholes on the spine, marginal water damage on the last few folios; otherwise a good copy.
