What Our Customers Say...

Description

Proof Copy, Very Scarce

In the publisher's original paper covers. 

A very scarce facsimile of the original proof sheets. 

This volume features the proof sheets for the United States Pharmacopoeia, a fascinating medical reference work featuring a compendium on compound medicines and medicinal plants. The work features the Latin names of the medicines, with notes on how to prepare them. This facsimile includes the original hand written notes from the proof copy, with a note to Dr Elisha De Butts, a founder of the University of Maryland School of Medicine.

Condition

In the publisher's original paper covers. Externally smart with slight sunning to the front, the slightest shelf wear and a very small closed tear to the head of the spine. Internally firmly bound bright pages with the odd spot and mark.

Very Good
