Descripción

Ex-library bound in stiff paper wraps (library binding). The original dark green paper wraps from the Smithsonian (U. S. National Museum) are present. Library markings include pencil call numbers on the original Smithsonian wraps, library stamp on the verso of the library binding, color pencil underlining on Smithsonian wraps, penciled middle name of John B. Smith on full title page, and the remnants of a removed pocket on the verso of the rear library cover. 194 pages, plus 24 black and white plates, plus 7 color plates. The 7 color plates are bound with a Smithsonian note that states the color plates were originally intended for a separate publication to be issued by the Department of Agriculture, but that publication was never issued and the plates were transferred to the Smithsonian (U. S. National Museum) and are included in this publication by request. Text and plates clean and bright. The authors, Dyar and Smith, apparently did not like each other and apparently enjoyed changing each other's taxonomic nomenclature and went so far as to mockingly name species after each other. Book now protected in an archival plastic bag. Ships same or next business day very well protected in a box. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 194 pages. N° de ref. del artículo 81393
