The deluxe large-paper second edition, issued about eight years after the original issue. Small 4to. 6pp + cl plates. Cloth-backed boards with marbled paper-covered sides and a somewhat toned paper spine label. Some rubbing and wear to the boards at the corner tips and extremities. The title page and text (i.e. advertisement) leaves spotted, and with some further spotting to the margins of all of the plates, but the engravings themselves almost entirely unimpacted. Plate 77 is absent and has been replaced with a laid-in photocopy. Gift inscription inked in English to the front free endpaper, and dated 1847. A good copy of the deluxe large paper edition of Dumoulin's superb suite of captioned 'Robinson Crusoe' engravings, now widely considered the precursor to the modern graphic novel. Exceptionally uncommon.
