HURST'S 



Stereoscopic Studies 



OP 



Natural History 



For Object Teaching in Schools 



AND 



PARLOR ENTERTAINMENT. 



We are prepared to furnish the first- sixty numbers 

 of the first series of 



To these will be addel a second series of foreign speci- 

 mens, and various Animals and Birds in grotesque at- 

 titudes, never however violating their natural instincts. 



We offer these views not as pictures only, but as 

 studies from nature. One of the great moving ele- 

 ments in our modern system of education is object 

 teaching. The unerring fidelity of the stereoscope 

 transfers the animals and birds from their natural 

 habitat ro the rooms of the student and the fireside of 

 our homes, where they cannot fail to leave a lasting 

 impression of the form, color, habits, and locality of 

 each specimen. 



An experience of more than twenty-five years as 

 Taxidermist of the New York State Cabinet "of Natu- 

 ral History, and in gathering his large collection of 

 native and foreign specimens, enables Mr. Hurst to 

 combine in every view the locality of the specimen 

 with its appropriate rocks, woods or water, and color- 

 ing from the originals.
