Zt. with gold stamped title (with weak remnants of Bible signs). ==References== Zunkel, 1726. ==References== Volumes of Leupold's "Theatrum Machinarum Generale". In the 19th century, however, Leupold differs in particular by the systematization of the representation. Leupold proceeds from the description of the individual basic elements for the treatment of the functional connection. It is above all this stronger rational penetration that distinguishes Leupold from his predecessors." (H. Hilz: Theatrum Machinarum p. 114). Part 1 deals with weight art and scales in general, part 2 about watercars (hydrostatics), part 3 about barometers, thermometers, hygrometers etc., part 4 about horizontal scales (theatrum libellationis).
