Description: Original decorated paper cover, 4°, 22 x 16 cm. B10034Historial pamphlet on 1394. Albert I, Duke of Lower Bavaria (German Albrecht, 1336-1404) was a feudal ruler of the counties of Holland, Hainaut and Zeeland in the Low Countries.This rare pamphlet is a reprint of the original older edition as mentioned on the titlepage 'Na de eerste copye van Amsterdam by Willem Jacobsz. Engelenborgh'. This is Willem Jacobszoon, working in Amsterdam from 1548-1568. The legal rules are dated between 1387-1521/ Special sections for Diemen, Loosdrecht, Weesp and Abcoude. The words 'ende Zeeburch' are a bit out of order, they should have been put after 'Aemstellant ende Goylant'. This 17th century pamphlet is rare and of great historical importance.The pamphlet is also mentioned in the catalogue of the literary legacy of Jacobus Koning (1770-1832) in 1833. Jacobus Koning was a bookseller, book colleter and published some works on Dutch history. He as also a registrar at the municipal court of Amsterdam in 1811. Member of the KNAW, Koninklijke Nederlandse Academie voor Wetenschappen. See our number B10035 for this item. Rechtsregels voor Amstelland en Gooiland. Herdruk door Van Poolsum van een veel oudere editie, gedrukt zoals op de titelpagina is vermeld: 'Na de eerste copye van Amsterdam by Willem Jacobsz. Engelenborgh'. Dit is Willem Jacobszoon, werkzaam te Amsterdam van 1548 tot 1568. De rechtsregels zijn gedateerd tussen 1387 en 1521. Speciale alinea's betreffen Diemen, Loosdrecht, Weesp en Abcoude. De woorden 'ende den Zeeburch' in de titel zullen wat verschoven zijn en behoren te staan na 'Aemstellant ende Goylant'. Ook de hier aangeboden 17de- eeuwse druk is zeer zeldzaam.
