Traite d’anatomie chururgicale et de chirurgie experimentale [vol. 2] : Preservation Lab Treatment Report

Abstract

This item is the second of a 3-volume series received by the lab requiring storage. It is a dark blueish-green leather half binding with a dark blue, grey, tan, and brown marbled paper covering the boards. The textblock features a trimmed edge. The text is in French and is printed in ink on smooth wove paper that is sewn through the fold onto three recessed cords. The leather spine features four false raised bands, with the title of the volume appearing in gold tooling. Part of the leather spine is torn off completely, with the remaining part partially detached along the joints, exposing a strip of tattle tape on top of a green wastepaper spine lining featuring printed English text. The section of the leather spine that is completely torn off is inside the front cover inside a small polyethylene baggie. The inside of the front cover features a Cincinnati Hospital Library bookplate. This item arrived without housing
