BUFFON Count de
Natural History General and Particular. Illustrated with Above Six Hundred Copper Plates. The History of Man and Quadrupeds Translated with Notes and Observations by William Smellie Member of the Antiquarian and Royal Societies of Edinburgh. A New Edition Carefully Corrected and Considerably Enlarged by Many Additional Articles Notes and Plates. etc. Complete with all plates present
London: T. Cadell and W. Davies 1812. Hardcover. Good - to Very Good . Octavo 20 volumes complete with all plates present. In contemporary full treecalf with gilt spines morocco spine labels gilt borders and marbled endpapers. The volumes range from about good to very good or better condition. Most of the spine ends are worn and there is general but shallow wear to the corners and fore-edges of many volumes. The front board of Volume I is detached but present and some other volumes share a similar but happier fate with the front board hanging on by the stitching. The stitching is thick rope so while the outer joints are no longer holding the rope is keeping the binding together more images upon request. The plates are overall in lovely condition with as many as a few dozen affected by mild to moderate foxing or age-toning mostly in the birds section and mostly within Volume XII. Still the overwhelming majority of the plates are bright and clean without so much as a single spot of foxing. Happy to provide any images of any specific plates upon request. The text leaves opposite the plates are partly age-toned as is to be expected but all other text leaves are bright and clean with only the most scattered foxed leaves. Some faint and shallow dampstains to a few volumes hardly affecting any plates. Plate III in Volume I a folding plate has a thumb-sized chip at one corner not approaching the image. There were a few binding/printing mistakes but all in the positive or at least neutral direction - there are two copies of plate 254 bound in right next to each other and plates 46-54 in Volume XII are all in the wrong order but all present. A few spines are just about split but holding. Some minor and seemingly incomplete repairs to a few spine labels they were not re-titled in gilt - see images but this is otherwise a completely original set with no other evident repairs. Though external condition makes this decidedly not a fine set in terms of condition the plates are overwelmingly in lovely shape and the whole set is mercifully complete. Bookplate of Joseph Neeld appears in each volume. Neeld was a Solicitor in Middlesex England around the time of publication and this could have belonged to him or his son of the same name who was soon after an MP for Gatton Surrey and later Chippenham Wiltshire. A desirable set. T. Cadell and W. Davies hardcover
