300x220 mm. 15 pp. One lithographic plate, showing the ‘tromemetri economici’. Diagrams and illustrations in text. Original printed wrappers, slightly browned. A very good, unopened copy. On upper cover De Rossi’s dedication to Alessandro Serpieri (‘Al Chiarissimo P. A. Serpieri omaggio affettuoso dell’Autore’).
The present copy offers a good evidence of the close relationship among the Italian seismological community in the second half of the 19th century: a paper on the tromometer invented in the early 1870’s by Bertelli and perfected with observations by De Rossi, and sent to a third Italian scientist, Alessandro Serpieri. Offprint from: Atti dell’Accademia Pontificia dei Nuovi Lincei, xxviii (1875).
