This unique volume, titled 'Catasto Agrario 1929 - VIII. Compartimento della Venezia Giulia e Zara, Provincia di Trieste', is a specialized statistical publication issued by the Istituto Centrale di Statistica in 1935.

Published in Rome by Libreria dello Stato, this folio-sized book contains ten pages of introductory text, fifty-three pages of content, a large colored map, and numerous statistical tables regarding various localities in the province. The item is particularly notable for its bespoke red cloth binding, created specifically for the Italian monarch. The front cover features the large gilt-stamped coat of arms of the King of Italy (11 cm high), accompanied by the I.P.S. of Rome stamp.

The back cover displays the engraved 'Littorio' bundle of rods (6.5 cm high), an emblem of the Italian Fascist era. The spine is smooth and stamped with the title. This copy originates from the private library of the Kings of Italy.
