Description
Published by Sampson Low, Marston, Searle & Rivington, London, 1882. Five volumes offered here as a set, all folio (over 15 inches). All pages and plates are loose as issued, colors remain bright with some plates showing very little to no foxing. Some plates have toning, some have damp stains, with some chipping here and there. Acid toning on first pages throughout, age appropriate wear as expected. Cover boards are only fair as shown.
A pencil notation on the inside front folder of volume one states this is a complete set in nine (9) sections. Overall a substantial amount of paper with beautiful plates in full color, apparently chromolithographs. A rare and (possibly) complete set. Ex-US Army Japanese Area Language Course property (WWII), as stamped on title page and other pages.
