Tables of the Skeleton and Muscles of the Human Body, By Bernard Siegfried Albinus. Translated from the Latin. Edinburgh: Printed by Balfour & Smellie, For Andrew Bell Engraver. 1777 (second title page dated 1778). Second title page reads: Tabes of the Human Muscles, By Bernard Siegifried [sic] Albinus. Part Second. Containing The Muscles of the particular Parts separated from the Body. Edinburgh: Printed for Andrew Bell Engraver. 1778. Folio atlas in later quarter brown leather with brown cloth over boards. Raised bands and title label with gold text on spine. Ghost impressions of some writing on leather. Other minor scuffs. Corners bumped. New end papers. Two title pages and address to Alexander Monro. Variably foxed (greater on front and rear leaves, less so through middle of book), but involving plates.
