All prints are from the same first edition set. Print size is 9-5/8 inches x 7 inches. All prints are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity (COA).  Original text will be included on a first-sold basis. We guarantee authenticity, and will be happy to include a photo copy of the title page upon request.  Prints are listed below in order of plate numbers. To see full-size scans, click the thumbnail.  Scans give only a general idea of condition, exaggerating some flaws (toning and staining), and minimizing others (e.g., tiny tears and nicks).  Scans may also obscure the sharpness of the print and beauty of the coloring.  Please contact us for a detailed condition report.  Your browser may be set to shrink all photos to fit the browser window; if so, click on photos to see them at full size. 

Visit our ordering page to read about our guarantee, and for information on sales tax, shipping, and forms of payment.  And don't forget our fine selection of later edition and "single" first edition octavo animal prints.
