The three folding lithograph diagrams at the end of the book, show the motion of the piston, corresponding with each 1 degree of motion of the crank, when the connecting-rod = 4, 5 and 6 cranks.

Spotting to page edges but very clean inside. Rear diagram pull outs have some additional creasing due to regular unfolding.

Very good example of this book
