Bound in full percaline with Art Nouveau floral decoration, the red colour is a little faded, discoloured and stained but the interior is in very good condition. I almost have the impression of having been the first to open the anatomical body and to lift the organs one by one!
Consisting of 20 pages and a fold-out anatomical plate with the various cut-outs superimposed. The text pages, after the introduction, explain each of the plates that make up the final plate, with numbers to help locate them.
Good condition
Size: 29.5x20.5cm
