1850287457London: Peter Jackson Late Fisher Son & Co. The Caxton Press 1850. Half Leather. Very Good binding. Wright and Buckingham's historical descriptions of various places in Belgium the Rhine Italy Greece and the Shores and Islands of the Mediterranean with engraved illustrations by various artists. Complete with two volumes bound in one. Vol. I is complete with all 73 plates called for in the 'Contents' though "Great Canal and Antique Gothic House" or "Ghent" is bound in at Vol. II p. 58 and "The City of Catania and Mount Etna" is bound in near Vol. II p. 152. Vol. II is lacking pp. 25-32 and pp. 49-56 and also lacks the eight plates that would have been in those two signatures. This is quite possibly a binder's error as there does not appear to be any explicit damage to the textblock at those locations; the binder also misplaces a number of plates though most of these errors are simply a few pages off. Vol. I with all 73 plates. Vol. II with 73 of the 81 plates. Altogether with 146 of the 154 plates which includes the frontispieces and additional title pages engraved. Some foxing to the plates; previous owners' names on the front pastedown and recto of the initial frontispiece lacking front endpaper. Surface wear to the joints spine and corners of the boards. Some soiling to the cloth covered boards. Half brown leather with designs in blind decorative gilt rules and gilt lettering and gray cloth covered boards. Very Good. Very Good binding.
