| Summary: | Niall Kenny description: Pages in volume 1 watermarked 'V * F 1797', plates 'J Whatman 1794'; Pages in volume 2 watermarked 'TH' and '1801' (but this is likely to be 'SMITH' '1801', as seen from the large paper version in Edinburgh); coloured plates watermarked '1794 J Whatman', outline plates 'R & E 1799' or 'R & E 1801'; the errata has been stuck onto Kk2v, but is clearly how it was originally; oddly the indication of volume number on the title page of Vol. II is misprinted Vol. I (Edinburgh copy is printed correctly therefore assume is the 2nd printing). Glasgow copy has a very odd collation on-line, as the preliminary pages are all misbound. Dedication signed: "Edward Coleman. Veterinary College, May 1, 1798." Printer's imprint: Vol. I: "T. Gillet, Crown Court, Fleet Street." on half-title; Vol. II: "T. Gillet, Salisbury Square" at bottom of title page. The collation in Dingley for volume I is incorrect as that copy lacks the author's advert leaf and the directions to the binder. |

Each volume contains a duplicate set of plates; in the first volume four numbered plates are fully engraved, with the duplicate numbered set engraved only in outline; in the second volume the fifteen unnumbered engraved plates are hand colored, with the duplicate unnumbered set not colored. |
