Add to basketPhiladephia, PA, The Conchological Section of the Academy of Natural Sciences, 1865. 8vo. Three frontispiece portraits, viii, 387, [ii] pp.; numerous text figures, 27 plates of which 15 hand-coloured, and three tinted. Contemporary half calf over marbled boards. = The complete first volume of this rare journal, with a prospectus… for a proposed second volume. The portraits are of Isaac Lea, Augustus A. Gould, and C. B. Adams. The latter as an original daguerreotype, mounted. Some papers have many text engravings. The hand-coloured plates mainly show new fresh water bivalves. Board edges and spine rather worn, with the top spine end chipped and the rear joint detached. Internally, however, a very good, clean copy.
