Description

London, The Zoological Society of London, 1944-1956. 14 volumes in one. Thick 8vo (20.2 x 13.5 cm). 1,148 [31; 27; 47; 44; 88; 88; 117; 115; 138; 139; 70; 88; 74; 85] pp. Contemporary black half calf over yellow marbled boards. Spine with gilt print (the years covered). Original printed wrappers bound in. = Covers the 11-year period of 1943-1954, but includes some earlier publications not previously recorded. Up to volume 89 the Reptilia and Amphibia were combined into a single volume; from volume 90 onwards both had a separate volume (sections XVIA and XVIB). Smith was responsible for the first three years, the last together with Swinton who did the fossils of all the other volumes. The recent herpetology was done by Battersby until the split, at which point Grandison took over the Recent Amphibia. All wrappers with the small stamp of Dr. Mario Guerra. A good, complete run in an attractive binding.
