 of delineation, fidelity to detail and accessories,

For a sportsman's dining room, and no more beautiful and appropriate gift could be found for the 

 lover of nature than one of these. The constantly increasing scarcity of this work makes these 

 large plates each year more valuable. Some of the plates are double and can if desired be cut in
