ECHO Mushroom Plant. Troy, N.Y.

  • [Troy, N.Y. , 1895
By [Manuscript – mushrooms; Anonymous]
[Troy, N.Y., 1895. Octavo (19.5 x 12 cm.), 1-2, 59-134 pages. Index. References. Manuscript on printed blank account book. Thirty two pages of handwritten text and illustrations in pencil. An interesting mycological manuscript, in that it is focused on mushroom propagation and not identification. Descriptions of individual varieties are followed by growing specifications. Some of the descriptions are accompanied by pencil depiction of the mushrooms. Internally very good; some age-toning to endpapers. In textured brown calf, lined, and with a paper title label, hand lettered. Some wear to edges and rubbing to boards. Still near very good.
