Item description from seller

Published in conjunction with the Boston Medical Library in the Frances A. Countway Library of Medicine. No. 156 of a limited edition of 325, printed July, 1985. Type set in San Francisco by Mackenzie-Harris Corp., printed on Arches mould-made paper from France, and bound by Gray Parrot, in Easthampton, Mass. The type used here was designed by the celebrated Giambattista Bodoni, and the sidepapers are reproduced from a 19th century Italian paper. 10 x 6.5 inches. Medium green, quarter leather spine, lightly sunned, and with patterned paper boards in orange, green and cream, with a small flower repeat design. Pristine medium brown title label to spine, with crisp gilt-stamped lettering. Unbumped spine head and tail, and the corners are sharp. 87 numbered pages. The fore edge and the bottom edge moderately deckled to a handsome effect. With 10 B&W full-page illus. Translated by Joan Bond Sax and with an introduction by Robert M. Goldwyn, M.D. The book is immaculate, inside and out. The text block is very solidly attached to the binding. Almost certainly unread. No DJ [as issued?]. A Near Fine copy, downgraded from Fine due solely to the lightly sunned spine. 15.4 oz. The first edition of On Grafting Animals (Degli Innesti Animali) was printed in Milan, Italy in 1804 and was apparently the first book on skin transplant. A German language edition was issued in 1819.…

Store description

Welcome to the books platform of Marc Sena Carrel. I operated a professional book business between 2003 and 2017 in the San Francisco Bay Area, including via AbeBooks, and I am now a private party selling off fine books from my personal collection. I carry a choice selection of books, prints and ephemera for the discriminating customer. I focus on scholarly and antiquarian books, with a special emphasis on art books. From time to time I also offer original prints, including but not limited to antique Japanese ukiyo-e prints. Additionally I go in for occasional ephemera. Currently on offer via Abebooks are select titles. My selection is more eclectic and off the beaten path than mainstream and predictable. Please e-mail me at marcsenacarrel@gmail.com if you have any questions or concerns. I will be happy to be of service. Thank you.…
