Very rare series of ornamental patterns by Ernst Friedrich Bussler (1773-1840) after mostly antique motifs. The catalogue of the Berlin Ornamentstichsammlung ( 3944) lists three further booklets under number 3944. Almost all copies I could find in libraries are incomplete.
Almost without exception clean and fresh, in strong prints.
