Sobre este artículo
London: N.p.. Hardcover. Good. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Cooke and Davenport. Quartos. [303] pages in two volumes. Contains 146 of 148 plates (possibly as published). Absent are the last 2 plates in Volume II ("Before and After"), which were frequently left out due to their showing a couple just prior and after sex (still fully clothed). Otherwise collates complete. Hardcovers bound full publisher's cloth with cover designs embossed in gilt. The bindings are worn and bumped and are now housed in clear mylar or acetate dust jackets. The front hinge of Volume I is cracking and a type of flexible glue appears to have been applied to prevent separation. Text blocks are sound. All edges gilt. Undated, but appear to be from the 1840s-1850s. The title pages are printed in dark blue and red. Most, if not all of the engravings have their tissue guards. There is no tissue guard at the page describing the final plates of Volume II, "Before and After," and their is no evidence of plates being removed.
