Bobins IV, 1367; Tooley 53; Schwerdt I, p.22 ('rare, well-drawn and beautifully coloured’); Siltzer, p.69 (later issue).



Oblong quarto (280 x 385mm). 7 hand-coloured etched plates. (Some mostly marginal soiling and spotting). Printed portion of the original front wrapper window-mounted in modern paper wrappers, another original front wrapper loosely inserted; modern green cloth case, the upper side with gilt morocco label.
