Encyclopaedia of Aviculture. 3 Volumes.

1970-1977. Reprinted from 1979 to 1984. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 350, 308, 241p. Three volumes. A very good set, however the d.j.s. have stuck to the covers in places due to water (in some places the residue of the covers have blemished the covers and in other instances we have left the d.j.s. stuck to the covers, rather than detaching them), 2 vols. have minor wear along the bottom edges, and vol. 1 has a half inch dig in the cloth on the front panel at the bottom, in very good d.j.s. that have a few small tears and a chip at the bottom of the front panel of volume one. Even though there was water damage to the covers and the d.j.s. there is absolutely no smell. All volumes are tight and exceptionally clean inside. There are 87 full page color plates and over 400 black-and-white illustrations. The original edition was published in the Dutch language in 1964-68. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
