Item description from seller

4to, with 103 hand-colored costume plates. Plates are numbered 1 to 186, so this is not a complete compilation of the full run of plates, but there is no evidence that any plates were pulled or torn out of this copy, which is soundly bound. Wrap covers are bound in the quarter calf over marbled boards binding. Plates 122 to 126 have a small tear and/or hole, not affecting image, now repaired with archival tape and not too conspicuous. Otherwise, plates exude charm, and the costumes are suffused with color. Original paper or card spine label is preserved and mounted onto the calf spine, but many will find this touch not attractive.
