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.
