Each label gave the volume number, year and the list of illustrations contained with are described as life-size. The four folders were labelled Tenth, Eleventh, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Fasciculus. The plates for the twelfth and thirteenth may have been added to the eleventh as only plates XXX-XXXII were listed on the label. For some items the caption on the illustration differs from the label and this is indicated in each entry. They were printed by W West chromo-lithographer, Hatton Garden, London. |
