1p plus 27 colour plates. In original printed wrappers, all edges gilt. 8vo. Covers are heavily worn and rubbed, brittled loss around edges, scuffed and crumbling on spine, soiled and toned, with some flat creasing. Binding brittle and loosening with wrappers almost detached. Area of loss over rear leading corner. Internally, pages heavily toned in margins. Previous owner's name on front free endpaper, along with a stamp saying 'shipped'. Some edge and corner wear to pages, curling on corners. Pencil marks on last page. The blessing is that the colour plates remain in tact and almost bright.
