    HathiTrust Digital Library (catalog record) provides full view of two copies, one from Harvard U with original cover and generally better image quality (but no "Illustrated end-papers").   The printed interiors are nearly identical. That from U Virginia contains no half-title page or frontispiece, perhaps simply missing. Its copyright page lacks the very small footer: "Robert Drummond Company, Printers, New York".   The Virginia copy contains color illustrations that coincide with the text, stamped? For instances see page 6-7.
