In good condition consistent of the age. Slight foxing in places of the wide margins. The table of contents with a somewhat stronger brownish stain in the center of the upper margin. The lower corners of each sheet minimally scuffed, the table of contents with a tiny paper loss and a tiny tear (2mm) in the right margin. The illustrations in clear, strong impression.

The portfolio with signs of wear. The cloth partially broken at the spine. Corners somewhat scuffed. Several superficial paper tears. Two rubbings extend into the image of the title woodcut, where there is a small surface fissure in the center.

Overall, the appearance of this rare portfolio is only slightly impaired by these traces of wear.
