[Antique title page, 1718-1740] COMOEDIA VETUS of BOOTSMANS PRAATJE Door Eenige Aentekeninge opgeheldert en vermeerdert, published ca. 1718/1740, 1 p.

Engraved frontispiece of an eighteenth century edition of the political pamphlet 'Comoedia Vetus'. Though anonymously published, it is commonly accepted that the author was Willem Meerman (?-1612), a seafaring man.First published in 1612, the year that Meerman embarked on a voyage to America, from which he never returned. In this pamplet, Meerman uses maritime expressions as an allegory on the political situation in Holland. The pamphlet is written in a clear and witty style. It attacks the protestant clergy in Holland as being little better than their Catholic predecessors. Hence the title, which translates as the old game. The illustrated titlepage print shows prince Maurits, seated at a table with seven other gentlemen. He holds a stick, a man with a head shaped like church pulls at the other end of the stick. At the front of the scene, several sailors are approaching and watch the scene in surprise. At the foot of the title are the words Eij Maat, siet is 't lant vol gekken Oom wil mijn Heer de stock ontrekken.Several reprints were issued in the eighteenth century and this impression might come from one of these [1718, 1730, 1732 or 1740]. On the verso collector's mark: Gemeente Museum of The Hague (L. 1096); here are also pencil scribbles.[NL] Titelprent van het pamflet Comoedia Vetus, voor het eerst in 1612 uitgegeven. Bovenaan prins Maurits gezeten aan een tafel met zeven heren. Hij houdt een stok in de hand waarvan een man met een hoofddeksel in de vorm van een kerkgebouw aan het andere eind trekt. Op de voorgrond komen enkele matrozen aan land en wijzen in verbazing naar het bovenstaande tafereel. Met onderschrift van 2 regels in het Nederlands. Etching and engraving on paper, with some little margin; plate mark: 158 x 103 mm; total: 164 x 110 mm; traces of previous mounting on the verso; some glue passed through the paper above on the right.
