About This Item
Half parchment binding with smudges and creases. Interior good, some minor foxing. Illustrated with 10 engravings (2 by J. v. Hiltrop by J.J. Bylaert). In this copy 8 extra engravings from other works (a.o. 2 coloured ones by P. Rosel v. Rosenhof after C.F.C. Kleeman and one by Cl. de Fessard after L. Reinold). The 6 parts of this book were published between 1767 and 1770, translated by P. Boddaert from Pallas' Miscellanea Zoologica or Spicilegia Zoologica. This copy is a title issue of the original 6 parts in which the first two leafs of each part have been replaced by a newly printed subtitle to present the whole as one publication.
