Period 1/4 leather binding, raised bands, gilt compartments and title lettering, marbled covers. Binding well age worn, leather rubbed and stained but still supple, heavy old damp staining across the bottom of the book which has resulted in the deterioration of the boards with some softening to underboards and some loss along the edge of both covers. Bottom of text block shows some old damp staining as well, although it is confined mostly to the first and final couple leaves. Contents remain overall clean, book still sound and tightly bound as issued. Book is physically well over 100 years old and shows some signs of handling and time. Item is not new or in "new" condition. Scarce professional journal with detailed advanced articles. Monumental heavy volume with a profusion of diagrams, photographs and illustrations throughout, including at least one double page plate in every issue. Still attractive on the shelf.
