description:
18 fine coloured plates and 17 sepia photogravure plates by A. Thorburn and the author; etc. A somewhat sad copy of this fine production, re-bound in a very good quality quarter scarlet cloth, gilt titles and borders. The contents are very good apart from 3 colour plates which are very lightly marked - mainly in the margin. Two of the sepia plates are also slightly marked. The last 8 leaves of the text have been damaged on the lower corners, and expertly restored; all the text is present and readable. Limited to 550 copies, of which this is number 433.
