Curtis’s Botanical Magazine wrappers

 Collection
Identifier: HIBDLIB-CurtisBotMag

Scope and Contents

Our Library contains all of the volumes of The Botanical Magazine / Curtis's Botanical Magazine from 1(1), 1787 up to the latest series 25(4), 2008, with scattered holdings after that date. The loose wrappers that we received from Wheldon & Wesley are not a complete set, but they begin with volume 1, number 1 (published in 1787) and end with volume 12, number 146 (published in 1839). We have photographed all of the printed text on the 405 individual wrappers, along with 45 printed inserts. We also have 17 duplicate wrappers, only two of which were photographed because they contain some different information on the inner or back pages.

For a more detailed description, see our Curtis’s Botanical Magazine wrappers page and our Bulletin article.
