George Simon Winters wohlerfahrner Pferde-Arzt ... nebst einigen, höchst seltenen für junge Fohlen vielfach bewahrt gefundenen Arznei-Mitteln ....

Northampton County: Kleckner, Rolf und Williams, 1841. Second Printing.. Full contemporary leather with a mounted label.. Good; binding somewhat "skinned" on the front board; joints wearing.. 12mo, 839, [1 - blank] pp. + 38 inserted woodblock plates.

A massive compendium, in three parts, devoted to the horse, its ailments, and cures. The text, according to the title, appears to contain remedies that have been added by Winter. There is a question as to the number of plates. Tucher (#2201) states 39 but OCLC lists anywhere between 16 and 41. The book has the appearance of being carelessly made up; the plates were separately printed (on inferior paper) and are generic rather than directly relevant to the text (there are a number of repeats). They apparently were added to enhance the appeal of the book at the point of sale and therefore do not form part of the collation. Unusual but aimed at profit not information. Scarce. Absent from American Imprints.
