jects in life size. 4 vols., elephant folio, newly bound in half pig- 

 skin. London : Published by the Author, 1827-38 

 A HANDSOME COPY OF THE ORIGINAL EDITION. With very few exceptions, 

 the plates are in absolutely unspotted condition, and the coloring is very 

 brilliant. The first and last plates are on heavier paper than the re- 

 mainder, which has served to prevent the curling up of the end plates, 

 a blemish which so frequently occurs. 



Accompanying the set are the five volumes of "Ornithological Biog- 

 raphy" Edinburgh, 1831-39, royal 8vo, uncut. There is also included, a 

 copy of "A Synopsis of the Birds of North America," Edinburgh, 1839. 

 Svo, which is a companion volume to the foregoing. These volumes have 

 been bound uniformly with the above.
