A propos de cet article

Loose folio leaves of fragile semi-alkaline paperstock, each leaf measuring 13x9.5 inches; all are somewhat toned throughout, we have hand-counted (laborously; and confirmed with item's printed numerals) seventy-six engraved plates under a rubricated titlepage, good copies pace a few tiny corner-tip creasings to terminal leaves, all enclosed in a printed cardstock folder with red linen backstrip and old ribbon ties. Folder is stained and frayed and rather dirty, but still serviceable, even the ties. Usable, handleable set, complete. Comment: we have in hand 76 unduplicated plates in perfect series, whereas cover text and titlepage call for only 66. We note that other dealers have met the same peculiarity.
