Sobre este artículo
London: Printed for J Harding A very good complete copy, bound as a single volume with 144 hand coloured plates - plate 11 serving as the frontispiece. Undated but is the scarce edition from circa 1810, which has a new title page and additional sections at the beginning of the work. This copy has been recently rebound in quarter calf with marbled boards. The spine has gilt ruled lines and title label. Contents: frontispiece; title (undated); advert 6pp; dedication 2 pp; preface 2pp; authors quoted 4 pp; explanation of terms 6 pp; text with 144 plates; and index 6 pp. The contents are clean and in very good condition with the occasional spot or mark. The pages slightly differ in length, with some bottom edges being untrimmed, and there is occasional spotting at the margins. Plate 92 has a small mark in the gutter not affecting the image. There is a small repaired bottom edge tear to a text page associated with Rhinanthus. The paper is quite thin and dark colours show through to the other side of the plates. Please enquire if you would like to see additional images.
