Kay, J.E. De
Natural history of New York. Zoology of New-York, or the New-York fauna; comprising detailed descriptions of all the animals hitherto observed within the State of New-York; with brief notices of those occasionally found near its borders: and accompanied by appropriate illustrations. Part V. Mollusca. Part VI Crustacea.
1843 [8], 271, 70 p., 40, 13 hand-coloured plates, original embossed and gilt pictorial cloth (with large gilt Pecten on front cover). A few small holes (cloth covering missing) on the lateral (joint) sides of the spine, else still a good binding. The bindings of this series were delicate and most copies encountered were or rebound or quite worn.Important contribution to the Mollusca of the northeastern U.S.A. with the inclusion of several new and rare species. This is the hand-coloured edition (40 plates for the Mollusca section) which is less common than the plain edition. Gilt vignette still very good. The title-page and first few pages with some scattered foxing. The plates clean although some are age-toned.
