Sobre este artículo
London: Richard Phillips, 1805. First Edition . Full Leather. Good/No Jacket. 4to. 487 pages, plus 20 hand colored plates. Early leather covers, very nicely rebacked with polished leather, raised spine bands, and gilt stamped lettering. Marbled end leaves. Original boards shows wear along edges and scattered scuffs. Recent spine covers remain perfect. End leaves are chipped along edges, and show general wear. Book plate on front paste down has been torn out and there is a small book plate at upper corner of same page. Offsetting and scattered light foxing, mostly affecting first ten leaves. First couple plates with some darkening and light foxing, but retaining good image and color. Remaining plates are bright, though show some offsetting to opposite text leaves. Volume remains tight and contents are otherwise very clean.

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.
