Parts I, II, III and IV published in May and October, 1952 and in June and November 1953. In original paper covers - the covers are slightly larger than the text block so there is some creasing around the edges and the previous owner has noted the date and the volume number in pencil at the top left corner of the front cover. Brown spotting along and around the spines and the outer edges of each part. The page edges have very slight scattered brown spotting and there is some brown spotting to the first and last pages. The pages and plates are otherwise unmarked. Each part has 11 coloured plates. Part I has Tabs 176 to 186; Part II has Tabs 187 to 187; Part III has Tabs 198 to 208 and Part IV has Tabs 209 to 219. In each part the first plate is larger and folds out. Plates by Lillian Snelling, Stella Ross-Craig and Ann V. Webster. From the collection of Marjorie Powell, a botanist and yachtswoman who lived in Great Shelford, Cambridge. Several other volumes also in stock.

Terms of sale
Prices do not include postage and packing. Payment must be received before books are despatched. Cheques or Postal Orders should be made payable to Raymond Tait, and must be in UK pounds sterling (GBP). Please do not send money until we confirm that the book is available. If you are not satisfied with the description of a book, it may be returned within 30 days with prior notice, in the same condition as received, for a full refund. If you have particular requirements regarding the condition of books, e.g. concerns about odour, please contact me before ordering the book (if there is a strong odour this will generally be mentioned in the description but for some older books with a variety of signs of age this may not be mentioned specifically). Books will be reserved for a maximum of 7 days. I can be contacted by email at raymondtait@btinternet.com, by telephone on 07565 322789 or by post at Tower House, 39 New Market, Beccles, NR34 9HE, UK.
Shipping terms
Orders usually ship within 2 business days.
UK Orders: Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 lb, or 1 kg. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by £1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.
European Orders: Shipping costs are based on books weighing 800g. For European orders I have only quoted a price for air mail. Not all European countries have been added so your shipping may appear high. Please note that I will adjust the charge I make if this is the case and postage to Europe will be lower than the rest of the world. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by £1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.
Other overseas orders: shipping costs are based on books weighing 800g. I will generally use whatever method is covered by the standard postage charge but if you specifically wish to have it sent surface or airmail or anything else please ask and I will amend the charge accordingly. Please only choose the cheaper surface mail option if you do not mind waiting - the suggested upper time limit for this form of delivery is 60 days and it can take that long - and sometimes a bit longer. If therefore you wish to receive the book in 2-3 weeks then please opt for the more expensive postage option which will guarantee airmail delivery. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by £1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.
Books are usually wrapped in bubblewrap and then in cardboard. Please ask if you have any particular requirements.
