Abbey erroneously states that the first three views are displayed in the title. In fact the title is the first listed and there are six further individual lithographs, as delineated in the letterpress.
First edition; folio (56.4 x 44.5 cm); complete with 7 stone-tinted lithographs including title page and letterpress leaf, extra illustrated with hand-coloured view of the interior of Crystal palace, and a woodblock showing one of the Chinese costumes exhibited in 1851, endpapers a little torn; original cloth backed printed boards, worn, back defective, very good internally.
