First edition of Redslob's revision of Flügel's text, first published in 1834. The orientalist Gustav Leberecht Flügel (1802-70) edited numerous Arabic texts; his Qur'an edition remained the standard for European scholarship for a century.
A good, clean copy of one of the earliest scholarly Quran editions conforming to modern standards.
