"A Very Rare Compendium Of The Whole Art Of Magic Systematized By The Most Famous Masters Of This Art
A Rare and Important Compendium Of Demonology and Magic, originally written as a single volume in 1775 by an anonymous magician by the name of Noli Me Tangere.
This eighteenth-century grimoire is comprised of more than thirty exquisite watercolours showing various demon figures, as well as magic and cabbalistic sigla. The full Latin title of Compendium Rarissimum Totius Artis Magicae Sistematisatae Per Celeberrimos Artis Hujus Magistros, roughly translates to "A Very Rare Compendium Of The Whole Art Of Magic Systematized By The Most Famous Masters Of This Art". The title page is adorned with skeletons and the warning of Noli Me Tangere (Do not touch me), signifying both the moniker of the author, as well as a recommendation that it remain secret, untouched, and that the reader remain untainted by its content.
Hand written in both German and Latin, and feigning the date of 1057, the author was both aware of its parodic provenance and had a keen insight of the goetic and theurgic predecessors from which it satirically borrows."

While this collection of images may be useful to the OP (provided the OP reads German), it's not the requested book. Thanks anyway!
