Volume 3 Language: English Pages: 384 Volume 3.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. First edition (xxxi, 480) with two engraved plates (System of Botany, Elevation of Greenhouse). Octavo, in modern brown three-quarter leather over marbled paper covered boards, five raised bands, gilt lettering and titles to spine, matching endpapers. The breathless title relieves me of the responsibility of summarizing the contents of this scarce book by a 'Nusery-man of Glocester'; Fussell (More, 68) makes passing reference, noting the nursery, at least, did well enough and was still being carried on by a daughter into the 1820's. A handsome modern binding and a clean text. A very nice copy indeed of a scarce work.

VOLUME III ONLY of a three volume set. Paged as [2], 401-549, [1-102] plus unpaged b/w plates (pagination in succession to preceding volumes). Hardcover: H 23.5cm x L 14.75cm. Contemporary full calf leather; some staining and rubbing to boards with light scuffing at edges and light bumping to corners; slender scuffing along joints and at spine ends; spine decorated with four fractionally raised bands although lacking title label but scuffed black "Vol. 3" label still present. Mild foxing to endpapers; occasional light foxing to interior leaves; old two-line black ink stamp "Patapsco Library. | Ellicott's Mills." near tops of title leaf and page 401 with slight associated smudging onto opposing versos; interior pages are otherwise fairly clean. Binding is firm. Still an attractive antiquarian copy. Book's plates are all b/w with none being hand-colored. Rear unpaged leaves feature "A Dictionary of Botanical Terms," a cumulative "General Index," and, upon the final page, an "Errata" and "Directions to the Binder." The Patapsco River settlement Ellicott's Mills was the forerunner to Ellicott City, Maryland; the fairly unobtrusive presence of the aforementioned stamp would seem indicative of a personal library (one of the Ellicott brothers perhaps?? as they had commercial interest in local agriculture and thus a botanical reference would be a logical possession) rather than an institutional one; book was obtained from a Tuscaloosa, Alabama estate with no further provenance known. A significant early 19th century botanical work by English draughtsman Richard Duppa (1770-1831) building upon the binomial nomenclature system and taxonomic work of Swedish botanist and zoologist Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778).

Three volume set with 240 fine copper engraved plates of which 237 are hand-coloured and three are b/w. (as published), with the Dictionary of Botanical terms and Index at end of Vol. III. 8vo. Hardbacks. AEG. Contents in near fine condition. Contemporary full, straight grain, leather binding, with richly decorated spines and borders, gently rubbed, o/w. nr. fine. A very pleasing set indeed. 'This work is intended to be a complete illustration of the Linnaean system of Botany'. It was published in both coloured and un-coloured issues.

Half-Leather. Condition: Very Good. Richard Duppa (illustrator). 1st Edition. A very good 3 volume set in part contemporary half leather binding with 240 plates of which 237 are hand coloured. Duppa (1770-1831) was draughtsman and writer who authored a wide range of works. The bindings have newer spines with raised bands and author and title labels. The boards are marbled and retain their original corners. The spines have become sunned but are sound; corners and edges with wear and varying degrees of surface loss. The books do not lie completely flat when opened. Internally the endpapers are marbled matching the boards. They have the bookplate of Gloria Rollinson. Contents: Vol 1: black and white frontispiece; title with part of old signature to top; intro pp iii-xxiii; systematical index xxiv-xxvii; text pp 1-196 with 85 hand coloured plates. Vol II: title with old signature to top; text in 3 sections 197-373, 376-379; 381-400 (with blanks inbetween), with 93 hand coloured and 1 black and white plate. Vol III: title with signature to top; text pp 401-579 with 59 hand coloured and 1 black and white plate. Contents are in very good clean condition with bright well-coloured plates. There is some offsetting, and the occasional light mark. Vol I has an old crease to the top of the fep and some marking to bottom page edges visible when the book is closed. Vol II has similar marking to bottom page edges and the final blank is attached to the rear free endpaper. Vol III has some damage to the fep.
