Had to buy a copy of that, a modern printing, for a college course, cost over $300.! Back in the 1990s. I gifted it to a professor who was a dear friend and linguist.

“Nahua elders, grammarians, scribes, and artists worked with Sahagún to compile a three-volume, 12-book, 2500-page illustrated manuscript, modeling its content on European encyclopedias, especially Pliny the Elder’s Natural History,” all of which has been digitized, translated, and made available at the Getty’s web site.
