Book excerpt: "This copy is missing many of the original 31 plates: that they were never bound in indicates that the firm was running short on their first print run of these pictures. This copy includes 6 of the collotypes produced for the 1872 American edition. These plates are direct copies of the Heliotypes in the English first edition... These collotypes bear a strong resemblence to Rockwood's work. When magnified 60x the pattern and crazing of the ink looks very similar... No printer is identified in either the 1872 American or in this edition." -- Hanson Collection Catalog, p. 50.
