About This Item
London: The London Printing and Publishing Company, Limited, 18??. Hardcover. Good. Vol. 1 ONLY (of a 2 vol. set). 624p. 28 cm hardcover binding. 20 semimonthly parts with individual covers bound together. Spine missing. Boards and binding otherwise intact. Collection of journals bound together with foxing to pages. Pagination ends abruptly at p. 624 mid-sentence so some pages missing. Some penciling, and a few damaged issue wrappers. Most pages clean and unmarked.
From the title page: "With practical information on all that relates to modern farming, gardening, shooting, angling, etc., etc. Illustrated with numerous engravings showing the anatomy of the horse; his teeth, mode of shoeing; sporting scenes, etc.; by Sir. E. Landseer, B.A.; A. Cooper, B. A.; B Herring, B. A., Etc." Subscription book on veterinary medicine, targeting landowners and farmers sold in 20 separate semimonthly parts, bound together by a previous owner in Nov. 18, 1926 as per an inscription on the cover of part 1. This collection ends mid-sentence on an article about the water buffalo in parts "19&20" issued as a single volume. It suggests that the volumes may have ran to a 21st issues since many end mid-sentence and begin in the next issue where the sentence left off.
