Cichorius plates

[richsc]

I ordered this way back in Feb from Amazon and am still waiting. I think the concensus back when was it was worth it, but maybe this waiting makes me wonder. Has anyone seen this new version? Any comments?<br>

It's sitting on my shelves here. But it's not really new as in 'printed 2004'. The Cichorius plates were published somewhere at the end of the 19th century. Lepper & Frere republished them in 1988. Quite possibly a case of Amazon-optimism :-D. Have you tried Addall or Abebooks? <p>Greets<br>

As Jasper says, it is quite literally a re-printing of the original Cichorius plates from the 1890s. It has the added value of an English-language commentary, plus notes on various related aspects.<br>
Indispensable for TC research; less so, for general interest.<br>
(The sub-title is "A New Edition of the Cichorius Plates", although, as Jasper points out, it appeared in 1988.) <p></p><i></i>
