    8vo. Five separate publications bound together, each with its own title page. There are 60 card leaves with captioned mounted albumen photographs, each followed by a descriptive letterpress leaf. The albumen photographs are richly toned and only a few have the usual fading at the edges; generally all are in fine condition. The letterpress leaves of the final title, ENGLISH CATHEDRALS, YORK AND DURHAM, are deeply toned, printed on a different stock than the other titles and the albumen photographs are mounted on the same stock rather than the card stock used in the other titles in this series. The binding, which is rubbed and scuffed, is a full red morocco, with the spine in six compartments, is elaborately decorated in gilt, as are the boards. In all, a very good collection. George Washington Wilson, born in Aberdeen 1823, began his professional career as a portrait and landscape painter. By 1852, he had opened a photographic portrait studio in Aberdeen, which thrived, and in 1860, he was appointed as the photographer for Queen Victoria in Scotland. He was a prolific landscape photographer of the British Isles, selling his work in great quantities to the tourists and others. From 1865 - 1868, he published, PHOTOGRAPHS OF ENGLISH AND SCOTTISH SCENERY, a series of 12 books, each on a specific area or village, and each with 12 mounted albumen photographs. This bound assemblage of five titles are first editions, with the exception of, THE TROSSACHS AND LOCH KATHERINE, which was initially published in 1866, with a second edition in 1868.

    First Edition. First edition of a rare artist's multiple from an enigmatic 20th century American artist. Collection of five 10" vinyl LPs with colorfully designed labels sans text in original, unlabeled paper sleeves, housed in generic stiff manila sleeves. Near Mint albums with no discernible wear, essentially as new. Unsigned by the artist, unlike some examples. White paper sleeves a little worn along the seams but otherwise bright.
