Large thick folio title page dedication page preface two pages author's tributes ten pages then ii 1734 but actually slightly less as there are several errors of pagination illustrated with over 2100 woodcut figures lacking the extra engraved title page the 20-page addenda at the rear and the errata leaf but otherwise complete and very sound. The contents are extremely clean and tight there is the odd crease and an occasional tiny corner missing but overall in impressive condition.
