A popular description by pen and camera of the delights and beauties of the open air.
Complete six volumes. Illustrated with 36 tipped-in colour illustrations by famous artists, 24 full-page blackboard outlines and about 1,500 monochrome photographs. All printed on quality paper.
And last but not least, each book with beautiful anatomical models.
Original maroon/gilded hardcover fabric covers and extensive gilded decoration on the spine.
All six books are firmly bound, without inscriptions and are in very good condition (as good as new).
The large multilayered coloured diorama models in each volume are curious and stunning.
The first one, the mouse has a few loose pieces, maybe one or two are missing, difficult to check.
Please see the more than one hundred photos.
