Milano, Fratelli Dumolard, 1886. Gelli notes 65 zinc figures in the text and a dedication to Adriano Bonsechi and Count Gian Pietro Porro. Earlier Thimm-aligned local data had preserved an 1885/54-figure witness; the public record now preserves the witness conflict without splitting the work.

Quality phase 477: corrected the imported date from 1886 to 1885; Thimm confirms fifty-four figures in the text.
