This collector's edition book from 1884, published by GPO in Washington D.C., contains detailed reports on diseases of fruit and agriculture, as well as color and black and white plates and maps. The book features engravings by various illustrators and is a true Americana piece, perfect for any outdoor and nature enthusiast or collector of antique books. This first edition book is in its original form and is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of North American agriculture.


The cover is worn but still decent for its age. Some pages inside have browning due to newspaper book marks or clippings being inside for 100years. Plates are intact ...look at my photos. The fold out are still fabulous in my opinion. Buy book as found as is with no returns...it's from 1884 so it's not mint or pristine but it's remarkable in its own way...thanks for looking!
