5 volumes. First editions. With 318 superb engraved plates by Lilian M. Medland with captioned tissue-guards, 2 full-page anatomical woodcuts printed in red and black, and 2 coloured folding engraved maps. Large 4to, bound by Bumpus in contemporary three-quarter green morocco over green cloth covered boards, the spines pleasantly toned to honey-brown, spines with tall raised bands ruled in bind, lettered in gilt in two compartments, t.e.g. A handsome set, there is some extremely minor toning or spotting almost entirely confined to the prelims and occasionally on the very outer edges of the margins but otherwise the books are internally fresh and clean, the fine Bumpus bindings with some general age rubbing mainly to the corner-pieces, the books are solid and firm and still very attractive.
