Vol I: title; contents; preface; text pp 3-320 with 45 bird and 14 egg plates in colour and 6 black and white plates. There is a small top edge tear to plate 22; small loss from the side edge of p 119; and the text pp vary from white to toned with some spotting. Vol II: title; contents; text 233pp with 46 bird and 12 egg colour plates. Plate at p 45 lacks guard; plate at 86 has a creased guard; plate at 107 has a loose guard and there is a small paint run to plate at p214.
