The tomes of the work are accompanied by the geographic atlas in good conditions but in a slightly different binding.

Contemporary calf, gilt spines, titles on spine label, red edges, marbled endpapers (light wear). Atlas complete of 50 plates (49 + 17 bis), double-page and one folding, 23 tables, some folding. A fine copy on strong paper. Contemporary half calf with gilt spine. (11)
