- paper
Folio (345 x 255mm.), 30 hand-coloured lithographed costume plates with captions in French, unbound, [cf.

Catalogue Note
This is one of the pirated editions that Blackmer suggests drove Stackelberg in 1831 to reprint his work in a German edition: Trachten und Gebräuche der Neugreichen, though Colas suggests a date of publication of c.1835.
