Confirmed as London: J. Smith, 1832. Yale records the full imprint at 1 Bouverie Street, Fleet Street, with 8, 72 pages and 5 folded leaves of plates; Google Books metadata reports 80 pages. Modern references vary between the author forms Maceroni and Macerone; the authority is normalized here as Francis Maceroni, with title-page/formal catalog variants noted.

Quality phase 101a: physical extent recovered from the existing bibliographic note.

Quality phase 186: city corrected from Madrid to London. Yale records five folded leaves; another collated first-edition copy reports six folding plates, five coloured. The discrepancy is preserved.
