Sobre este artículo
Champante and Whitrow c.1790. Culpeper's Herbal (replete with hand-coloured full page plates), BOUND WITH "A Key to Physic, and the Occult Sciences...". A testimony to the art of restorative binding, this book arrived with us without boards or spine. We consigned it to the care of Michael O' Brien (now of Oamaru) who gave the book an appropriately aged re-binding using contemporary endpapers and materials. WELL WORTH REQUESTING PHOTOS IF INTERESTED. Weighing just under 3.5 kgs, this will require extra shipping. Imperial octavo, frontispieces, xvi + 256pp/395pp, gilt lettering to title plates on spine, ex-libris plate to verso of frontis., occasional handwritten notes in ink (possibly from original owner)
