About This Item
London: Collins, 1960. Book. Very Good. Paperback. First Edition. 8vo. pp. [xiv], 260, black and white illustrations, 200 maps and diagrams with key to larvae by A. E. Gardner. Original printed card covers very good with slight wear only, corner tips a little bruised, spine very good without creases. Contents clean and tight, no inscriptions, no foxing, very small mark to the first page. A very good to fine copy. This reprint of the 1960 first edition was intended to be "affordable" and so the original colour photographs were reproduced in black and white, but it proved so popular that it sold out within a month - though the print run was just 1500 copies. Scarce..
