Vol. 3: TP, 49, (3) pp. and listing of plates 1-108. Vol. 4: TP, 55 (1) pp, plates 109-205. English translation by Paul C. Sinding. Very uncommon found together in all four volumes for some reason. VG-, some ancient dsampstaining to extreme lower corners of some pages, sothing extending into the plates. Some pages brittle, first feww pages of volume 1 are loose and brittle, few short tears, altogether a very acceptable copy in ugly buckram. For the user, not the collector.
