Some pale damp tide marks at the beginning, some pages foxed with variable dark browning to the printed area but text still quite readable and paper still supple. Some marginal short lines to call attention to the passages by a reader and about a dozen line numberings with 7 or 8 leaves with ink underlining of text. Occasional ink spots & a few X marks in the text. Some early commentary to a few margins. *Valles was an internationally respected professor of medicine and chief physician to Philip II of Spain. He wrote extensive texts on Galen, Aristotle, Hippocrates and medical and philosophical controversies. Reprinted in most European countries long after his death all 16th century texts are scarce and sought after."..angesehendsten Arzzte seiner Zeit wieder der Hippokratischen Medizin zu der verdienten Anerkennung verhalf"
