Title page, [ii], 100 pp.; one engraved map of the Nürenberg area and one peculiar engraving showing a crossbowman on a beehive with two coats-of-arms: one of Crenan, Leidlarius, Eschanson and Butigul, and one engraved initial letter. Wonderful medieval-style contemporary parchment binding decorated with blind-tooled roller stamp decoration of hunting scenes including deer, birds and lions. Edges red.

Description:
Tokyo, (circa 1881-1882). Two volumes (of three). Japanese stitched binding (24.8 x 16.5 cm). With 67 coloured woodblock prints and text in Japanese. Original stitched wrappers. A very pleasing collection of Japanese birds, many of them waterfowl. "This was Kono Bairei's first kacho, for in spite of the title it may be so classified, since many of the pictures emphasize the plants as much as the birds. The illustrations in these volumes are in black (with dilutions to grey), orange-brown (with dilutions), and vaguely perceptible tinting of the grays with green or blue. Being printed from the same block... the effects are extremely life-like and pleasing" (Barlett and Shohara). Complete copies would comprise three volumes, with 100 plates. Some 20 plates are double-paged. In fine condition. OCLC reports a complete set in the New York City Metropolitan Museum of Art only. Barlett and Shohara, Japanese Botany, p. 529. Not in any western bird bibliography.

Description:
New York, NY, The American Museum of Natural History, 1930-1942. Eight papers in eight. Large 4to (31.1 x 24.0 cm). 770 pp., 361 text figures, portrait of Bashford Dean, 47plates (seven in full colour). Uniform original printed wrappers. An important series of contributions, by Bartram G. Smith, J. Leroy Conel, and the editor, on fossil, and Recent "primitive" fishes (e.g. sharks), published by the American Museum of Natural History. The first well-illustrated article is about Bashford Dean (1867-1928) himself, who was quite a colourful character. One of his major claims to fame is, of course, his Bibliography of the fishes which was published in three volumes between 1916 and 1923, and still remains the major ichthyological reference work. Another is his work on effective body armour for soldiers fighting in trenches, and pilots of war planes. One issue has plain paper wrappers only, one has printed wrappers only; the others have a double suite of blind and printed wrappers. Copies in…

Original blind-stamped green cloth with gilt title and gilt ornaments on the spine, and gilt title on the front board.

Remnants of a bookplate on the front pastedown; bookseller's blindstamp in the top margin of the front free endpaper, a few spots but generally in a very good condition.

A rarely seen monograph on diseases of parrots in captivity, by an ornithologist from Berlin. The preface is by the German ornithologist Oskar von Riesenthal (author of, e.g., Die Raubvögel Deutschlands und des angrenzenden Mitteleuropas), and dated 1897. Next to nothing is known about the author. A pencilled note, 'Sehr Selten', on the last text leaf, is very true. We have never seen another copy. OCLC reports only two copies in libraries (in Denmark and Germany). Front wrapper chipped at lower inner and outer margin, otherwise very good. Not in any major bibliography.
