Sobre este artículo
London: Edmund LLoyd, 1813. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition. A large paper copy (external dimensions 43 x 36cm). pp. xviii,[2], 359; frontispiece plate, 2 plans, 18 further plates and 14 in-text vignettes, all in accordance with the list of plates. Many additional blank sheets interleaved. Later tissue guards loosely inserted adjacent to the plates. All edges gilt. Bound in full red morocco, extensively gilt decorated, five raised bands to spine, elaborate inner gilt dentelles, very good with a little marking and rubbing to extremities. Contents good and tight, marbled end papers, variable foxing/spotting to the plates more pronounced at the edges, a few of which with damp stains. Private bookplate to the front end paper. [Bibliographic note. This was a lavish production in an expensive tooled binding: Lowndes lists a Large Paper atlas 4to but with plates in Proof on India Paper. This copy is as large, but not on India Paper. Unfortunately the plates were printed on paper that is highly susceptible to foxing, spotting and staining, and all copies appear to suffer from this problem to a lesser or greater extent.] This large paper copy with its additional blank interleaves is particularly heavy and a small postal surcharge might apply..
