NO COPY CITED FOR NORTH AMERICA. 8vo., 8p., disbound, a near fine copy with just the faintest traces of age. The British Library is the only other Library that reports holding a copy. This was the fifth in the series of yearly published challenges with attendant awards in the fields of Agriculture, the arts, sciences, manufacturing, mechanics and so forth. It makes for fascinating reading ¿ the awards are surprisingly large ¿ the challenges [harpoon throwing guns, for ten reams of useful paper from raw vegetable substances, for an account of destroying the smoke of fires belonging to large works, for preventing dry rot in timber¿] often of great interest. My copy is complete without flaws, disbound. ESTC T62357. Codice inventario libreria 028420
