rif. 49639John Murray London 1876 Sixth edition - eighteenth thousand with additions and corrections to 1872. . 8vo XV 458pp. Hardcover in publisher's original bottle green cloth with gilt title on a slightly softening spine plus bruised corners and fraying and chipping to top and bottom of spine with a tiny white spine abrasion as well and no d/w as issued plus a protective cover in clear archival material with top and fore-edges faded green Well loved now but overall the condition is still very good despite minor gutter cracking at a few points plus some hinge cracking with an abrasion mark to ffep and a small pencil ownership name as well with the half-title bearing a tiny tear to the head plus a binder's label to rear pastedown and a Glasgow bookseller's ticket to the front pastedown. The folding plate at pge. 91 remains attached and undamaged o/t peripheral spotting. This very good copy of the rare Sixth 'Eighteenth Thousand' Edition contains Darwin's final changes before he died including the first use of the term 'evolution' and the removal of 'On' from the title being also a cheaper popular edition with smaller format and type apparently. So this is the final text as Darwin left it being an issue of 1250 copies only thus being equalled only by the small printing of the rare First Edition. Very scarce with about 150 years of age patina too. John Murray London 1876 (Sixth edition - eighteenth thousand) with additions and corrections to 1872. hardcover
