Limited facsimile edition of 500 numbered copies, of which this is number 431. Includes the two loose proof plates as called for (plate 9 Crested Thrush and plate 22 White-Breasted Honey-Sucker). Attractively bound by Dove Bindery, Melbourne. Grained calf with two raised bands and a gilt title to spine. Housed in a tan cloth clamshell case. Top edge gilt. A total of 26 colored plates accompanied by a page of text. Very minor wear to inside and to edges of the case, but otherwise a nice clean copy with no previous owners' names or other defacements. Please expect the possibility of additional postage for foreign orders as this is a large, heavy book.
