Panckoucke: Crocodile - CJP 07
The Encyclopédie méthodique was a monumental encyclopedia divided into subjects spread over 40 scientific dictionaries. It was launched by subscription in 1782 by the bookseller Charles-Joseph Panckoucke, in Paris, where he had managed to create the first journalistic empire of the time. The publication lasted for half a century ending in 1832. This enterprise, which was attended by several hundred authors, resulted in a set of 206 volumes comprising more than 125,000 pages and nearly 4,500 engravings from which we offer a small selection. The 5 x 7 card is blank inside and comes with an accompanying envelope - shipping is free.
