JOSEPH BRAND, 



No. 12, CASTLE STREET, PHILADELPHIA, 



Teacher of the Art of Preparing Birds, Quadrupeds, 

 Reptiles, $c. 4c. 



AND OF THE 



Art of making Moulds and Casts in Wax, Plaster, 

 and Compositions. 



In addition to the casts taken from the originals of the Trilo- 

 bites, he has also a few fine casts of the bones of the Megalonix 

 Laqueatus, Harlan. Scaphites Cuvieri, Morton. Mosasauru3 

 tooth, and of several rare fossil American Plants; all taken from 

 the original fossils, in the Cabinet of the Academy of Natural 

 Sciences, &c. &c. These models are fac similes of the real ob- 

 jects, coloured according to nature. 



As the originals of the above are in the possession of different 

 public and private cabinets throughout the United States, I have 

 at great trouble and expense, taken from them exact patterns, 

 so as to accommodate museums and scientific gentlemen with 

 them on very reasonable terms. This practice is now used in 

 several parts of Europe ; and thus the curious are able to supply 

 their cabinets with rare specimens, often superior to the origi- 

 nals. 



JOSEPH BRANO having finished for us a number of models 

 of different objects in Natural History, we have no hesitation in 

 recommending him as an exceedingly skilful artist.
