Note:
While Academica wypożyczalia dates this edition 1819, German copy of this edition can be dated 1820, hence this edition should be quite close to it. Carl Lissner was printing his musical editions in Leipzig. It looks like certain editions of Lissner sheet music have been plagiarized, at least the British Library possesses a copy of this collection published by Dalmas. Pages 13–16 are missing in RSL provided copy. Title page has the words Sixième livraison inscribed.

Transcription:
/books/gourdoux_daux_1823/transcription
Note:
Two different variants of Gourdoux' surname can be found. Early (published before 1823) books and book reviews give his surname as Gourdoux (or just J. H. G.), while his later publications [Gourdoux-Daux, 1823] and reviews give his name as Gourdoux-Daux. First names can be defined by comparing address of 1823 edition [Gourdoux-Daux, 1823] with this Ordonnance du Roi about giving the certificate pour un cheval mécanique to Jean-Henri Gourdoux. Should not be confused with Gourdoux-fils
