Those who really want chromolithographs may be able to buy
a copy of the whole book (1886) for $250 (with 15 chromos.)
Because this book is out of copyright, it was reprinted in
Japan (by Tuttle) in 1968, in the USA and recently, it seems,
in Australia. * Plates in these reprints are of course half-tone
photo reproductions, not chromos.
