This copy of Traité des délits et des peines by Italian philosopher Cesare Beccaria is a gorgeous book, with marbled endpapers and edges.

Glancing at the title page, you might assume this book was published in Philadelphia. It was actually bound in Paris, where it had been banned for its condemnation of the death penalty. The publishers gave it a false imprint to evade punishment.
