Description

Land Mollusca of North America

(North of Mexico)

by Henry A. Pilsbry

No ISBN, published in 4 parts 1939, 1940, 1946, and 1948 by The Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, PA.as Monograph #3, bound in buckram hardcover bindings, 2 volumes each in two parts, 6.6 by 10.25 inches, about 16.5 by 26 cm., 1113 pages total include 1164 figures in text, drawings, and black and white photographs.

I consider this set of books to be the "holy grail" for all people interested in studying and collecting the terrestrial mollusks of North America. It is difficult to find a complete set of four books today. They were not many copies made. This is a used set of the original paperbacks that have been bound in hardcovers. They show some very slight signs of shelfware but apart from that almost appear to be new. I did find two or three penciled notations named by the book's original owner on a handful of pages in the text. The owner's name is written inside the front cover of 2 of the books. There is some slight foxing inside the covers and on the front flyleaf pages. This set is only the second one that I have ever offered for sale.
