Evidence description: Livros antigos portuguezes, 1489-1600 da bibliotheca de sua majestade fidelissima, I, 1489-1539 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press and London: Maggs, 1929).
Notes: Manuel and Margery Withers were working on this book in 1927 in preparation of the essay that would go into the catalog. (See note on footprint indicating Manuel's ownership.) Elkan Nathan Adler as viewer is more speculative-- Ettinghausen (Rare Books and Royal Collectors, p. 91) reports that Adler reviewed Manuel II's essays on the two Hebrew incunabula in his collection. It seems very likely that Adler would have wanted to pay a visit to see the books themselves as well.
