[Help] Sigil·lografia catalana (Catalan Sphragistics), by F de Sagarra. Early Medieval to 19th Century Seals

Does anybody know if there's a digitalized copy of this book anywhere? It's the most complete compendium of catalan sigillography ever made.

I would like to look it up for a reserch I'm doing and I've only encountered so far a loose volume that doesn't have the information I'm lookin for.

As an advanced thank-you gift here's a link to a paper that has a couple of seals from the book (pages 4 & 5): Here
