What Our Customers Say...

Description

Colour Plates, Folding Plates, Illustrated

Containing 63 plates, of which 49 are hand-coloured, 11 are black and white, and 3 are black, white and sepia. Plates date from 1863 to 1883 and most are from the Journal des Demoiselles, with the eight remaining plates being from La Poupee Modele. Many plates are double-page or fold-out. Two of the coloured plates appear twice in the book, and one double-page black and white plate appears three times. This is a valuable resource for those interested in Eighteenth Century costume.

Condition

In a quarter calf binding with marbled boards. Externally, a trifle worn. The top portion of the backstrip is lifting. Internally, three plates detached but present with many further plates starting. Generally bright with occasional spotting and handling marks.

Very Good
