Sobre este artículo
Philadelphia: D. Rice & A. N. Hart, 1855. Third Edition, Thus . Full Leather. Good+/No Dust Jacket. Royal Quarto. Originally published in folio between 1836 and 1844, the three volume set was first reissued in royal octavo from 1848-1850. This is the third octavo edition, with 120 hand colored plates produced by J. T. Bowen whose lithographs were used in all four of the first octavo editions. The lithographs are based upon the original paintings of Charles Bird King, which were destroyed by a fire in 1865 at the Smithsonian where they were exhibited. Original full Moroccan leather covers with blind stamp, and gilt lettering in two of the six spine compartments. Raised spine bands. All edges are gilded. Leather is a bit rubbed and scuffed along edges, mostly lower, and show a few scuffs and light rubbing on joints. Corners are a little worn. Light smudges and foxing scattered throughout all volumes, though contents and plates are generally clean. Tissue guards are intact, with an occasional small tear or misfold. All three volumes remains tight.

Sobre Lloyd Zimmer, Books and Maps
With more than 25 years of experience buying and selling out-of-print, collectible, and rare books, maps, and ephemera, I am now doing business from my home at 60 Poplar Heights Rd.; Chanute, KS 66720; U.S.A. by appointment only. I offer a selection of more than 5000 books of all genre, as well as more than 1000 maps ranging from 15th century to early 20th. All inventory is hand selected and believed to be of significance for the collector, the reader, the historian or the general book lover. Historically, I have specialized in Kansas and regional history, but also maintain quality collections of Natural History, Theology, Americana, Railroad, Travel and Exploration, Medicine, Art, and Psychology, Neurology, and Psychiatry. Fine bindings, plate books, signed and inscribed items are an important part of my collections. Smaller, though intriguing collections of other genre are also a part of my holdings. Appraisal, consultation, and collection development services are available. Please come and browse, talk books, and have a cup of coffee in a relaxed and book friendly environment. But for the convenience of both of us, please email or call first. Trade terms available and dealers are welcome.
