The rare first edition of this history of the Spanish conquest of South America and the Caribbean Indies in which Castro’s, a relatively unknown conquistador, meeting with Monteczuma II and Fort Tucapel in Chile is vividly described. Only very few contemporary sources describe Don Henrique de Castro’s exploits. In 1617, in what is regarded as being the first novel to be set in Spanish America (Historia tragicomica de Don Henrique de Castro, 1617) a, mostly fictive, knightly romance between Don Henrique and Princess Elisauira set in Chile was published. Not in Barbier.

1923-1924 Four parts in four. loose-leaved (14.0 x 9.0 cm), each with one text leaf, and five full colour (post)cards, and one pictorial envelope.In 1922, the British Museum (Natural History) started issuing a series of postcard and greetingcard sets; in the early years usually consisting of five full-colour cards relating to one zoological subject, and some descriptive text. This series was continued at least to the year 2003, when the 299th set was published. Because of the ephemeral character of these attractive and scientifically correct illustrations, these early cards have become quite rare. Of the Exotic Butterflies, the envelope is present. The other two sets are without envelope, and preserved in transparent maps. All cards are nice and clean.
