"Verscheide soorten van Hollandse vaartuigen," by Groenewegen,Gerrit & P. Dekker.
Although I cannot read Dutch, I believe this book is a reprint of this book with additional historical information, facsimile documents and other images: "Collection of the 7 series of ship etchings (1786-1801), bound together in one volume. Each series contains 12 etchings. Series A was issued in 1786, series B in 1787, series C in 1789, serie D en E in 1790, serie F in 1791 and finally a series without a letter was issued in 1801."
Even this reprint is relatively scarce and it may be one of the largest collections of historic drawings of sailing vessels. Remember, these are all from days when they needed to rely on wind power and had no engines or motors.
Zaltbommel, 1967. About 100 B/w. images. No page numbers, but looks to be about 160 to 200 pages. Hardcover. Fine book in Very Good dust jacket in protector. Dust jacket has some sun fading on spine and closed one-inch tear in front.
