Item description from seller

2 volume set. Both bound in maroon cloth with gold lettering on covers and spines. Both volumes in very good condition. Volume 1 has 435 pages, dated 1905 on title page. Illustrated with plates, including a frontispiece portrait with tissue guard. Volume 1 has engraved bookplate on inside front cover with elaborate coat of arms and the name Louis C. Tiffany. Volume 2 has 464 pages. This volume has a few discolored speckles on the back cover and a small smudge on the front cover. Also included is a receipt from ABAA member Kentucky bookstore delivering this set to Thomas Lovejoy as his suburban VA address. Lovejoy paid $550 for it. This is the first edition of Wallace's fascinating autobiography. This volume comes from the collection of Dr. Thomas Lovejoy, who was a passionate book collector as well as a renowned biologist. His collection recently came to auction near Washington DC, as we were fortunate to purchase a portion of it, which we're proud to offer here. Please email with questions or to request photos. If you see a photo beside this listing, please be aware that it s an ABE Stock Photo (whatever that is) and not a photo of this book. Oversized and overweight books will require extra shipping for safe delivery.…
