Original antique black-and-white print from Curtis's Botanical Magazine — Plate 7086.

Phajus pauciflorus

Orchid. Native of Java. 1880s.

Uncolored plate. Condition consistent with age of the sheet. Each print is a unique piece of botanical history.

This is an original uncolored (plain) plate from leftover publisher stock of Curtis's Botanical Magazine, printed in London. It was issued uncolored and never bound. We bought the holding at the estate of a Chicago rare bookseller. Labels and stock papers from the British dealer Wheldon & Wesley came with it. Library stamps, when present, are noted on the listing.
