All volumes are bound in the original brown-black embossed cloth, with stylized gilt vignettes of fossil assemblages on the front covers and spines as well as gilt titling on the backstrips. Typically, most covers show only a trace of rubbing to the extremities and spine ends; some volumes have seen little handling. The gilt lettering and decoration on the covers is bold and bright. Most joints and hinges are fully intact, bindings firm. Original backstrip relaid on vol. III, plates. Minor foxing in volumes one and two, but otherwise the texts and plates are near pristine: fresh, clean, and bright. ***PROVENANCE: Most volumes in this set were purchased years ago from Donald W. Fisher, the noteworthy New York State Paleontologist from 1955 to 1982; free endpapers bear his inked signature. The only evidence of other previous ownership is an old bookplate and a small, paper spine label in volume I. It is most unusual to find these volumes in nice condition. This is a splendid, sound set of a now scarce treatise, all bound in the original publisher's cloth. I could find no complete sets online. Prime 30-31. BMNH 1423. Shipping extra, but only at my cost.…
