1776réf. 032975London: Printed for B White 1776 A fair copy complete with 50 hand coloured plates in contemporary binding which has been rebacked preserving the original spine. Classed as 'fair' because text leaf 109/110 is in facsimile; there are some paper repairs; and the colouring is not as detailed and careful as it could be. The binding has a relaid decorative spine with 5 raised bands and gilt compartments - the title is in the second compartment. Boards are marbled. There is scuffing and wear at the board edges surfaces and corners. All page edges gilted. New endpapers. Contents are complete with text in french and english on alternate pages and 50 hand coloured plates. Text 134 pp with 2 pp of index. Contents are generally clean with the odd mark or spot. There is long stain in the gutter of p 69 where an old sticky tape repair has been removed and the original tear professionally repaired. The stain is also lightly visible on the following 2 text pages. Plate 2 has professional repair in the gutter; Plate 36 has a professional repair and has a very small tear at the bottom edge. There is a small nick from the top page edge of Plate 23 and a small edge tear at the top of p 95. There is a small mark at the foredge from pp 110 to 129. Peter Brown was primarily an illustrator and the specimens were taken from the collections of Marmaduke Tunstall; Mr's Lee Yeats and Moon; the British Museum and the Royal Society.
