Folger-specific note
From dealer's description: "First Edition very rare of this uncommon book printed in the city of Baeza in Andalusia. This is a virulent criticism of the trendy hairstyles: tufts, fringes, wigs, toupets, and moustaches, considered as reprehensive signs of masculine vanity that the author attack with an enjoyable panache. The author, Jimenez Patón (1569-1640) was a Spainsh humanist, friend of Lope de Vega and author of numerous scholary works on various subjects, some of them very curious. At the end of the book (8 pages), we can find a poem by the great Quevedo who was a defender of a reform regarding the costums of the Spanish court, as well as a letter by Lope de Vega addressed to his friend, the author (1 page). Ancient manuscript annotations on an endpaper. Browning. Juan de la Cuesta was the son of the main printer of Baeza Pedro de la Cuesta, cf. Herrera Morillas."
