The complete six-volume first edition set of Rudolph Marloth's magnum opus.
Volume I: published in 1913 and contains 36 coloured & 30 monochrome plates.
Volume II: published in 1925 (in two sections) and contains 52 coloured & 28 monochrome plates.
Volume III: published in 1932 (also in two sections) and contains 50 coloured & 20 monochrome plates.
Volume IV: published in 1915 and contains 42 coloured & 18 monochrome plates.
The bindings of all the volumes are solid and internally they are clean. The green cloth boards are very bright and clean - as a result of having been protected by the jackets for over a century.
The jacket of volume I has suffered some significant loss on the spine and corners but is still very uncommon in any condition. The cloth has faded on the spine on the areas where the jacket has paper loss.
The jackets of vols. II & III (four parts) are in very good to near fine condition.
The jacket of volume IV has been significantly reinforced from the inside.
4 volumes in 6 parts (volumes 2 & 3 each in two parts or "sections"), 180 colour plates, many plain plates, and numerous text figures (figure 59 in volume 4 missing as usual), original green cloth.
