Vogt, Carl & Friedrich Specht The Mammalia in Word and Picture. London: Blackie & Son, 1887-1888. 2 volumes, folio.
Bound uniformly in original terracotta red cloth boards with a black and gilt embossed picture of a leopard and her two cubs to the front boards and lettering to the spine with a small vignette of a deer and her foal. The books are profusely illustrated throughout with numerous wood engravings and 15 full page illustration plates to Volume I and 25 full page plates to Volume II, all called for and all with tissue guards and each volume with a frontispiece plate opposite first text page. All edges gilt.
There is some minor foxing, to both volume's front and rear end papers and a little scattered light foxing to several tissue guards and to the periphery of a few illustration plates, not affecting the illustrations in anyway.
