Elliot; a single bird plate after J. Wolf, and the two plates depicting eggs after William S. Morgan (very occasional dust-soiling or very pale water-spots, first and last plates in vol. 4 cracking at gutter margins). Original green pictorial lithographed boards (sympathetically rebacked, edges and corners showing, some minor wear/staining, mostly to part 3). Custom solander box, morocco spine label.
