Title A name given to the resource The Beauty of Original Boards Description An account of the resource The nineteenth century ushered in an explosion of technical works on the anatomy of fish. Works on comparative anatomy were popular, as were detailed works on single species of fish. Bakker’s contribution to the anatomy of fish, Osteographia piscium (1822), includes a large atlas of plates (shown here) and a small octavo text volume.

Title A name given to the resource In Boards as Issued Description An account of the resource It was not uncommon for technical works such as Bakker’s Osteographia piscium (1822) to be issued with a large atlas of plates and a small volume of explanatory text. Over time, it is not uncommon for plate and text volumes to become separated. Although I purchased these two volumes at different times, marrying them to complete the set, both are in their original publisher’s boards and make quite a nice pair. They are now housed together in a custom slipcase.

Title A name given to the resource As Issued in Wrappers Description An account of the resource William Harris’s The Fishes of North America That Are Captured on Hook and Line (1898) was a monumental undertaking. Harris reported traveling nearly 30,000 miles across North America with artist John L. Petrie, capturing and painting the “true to life” colours of fish immediately after they were removed from the water. In his advertisements for the book, Harris stated that up to 15 different lithographic stones were used to print the large plates and that the results were indistinguishable from an oil painting at a distance of 10 feet. The work was issued in 20 parts, each in wrappers, over the period of a few years, after which complete copies were available from Harris (who was also the publisher). Pictured here is a wrapper from Part III.
