FOREST AND STREAM. 



[Jan. 5, 1888. 



AUDUBON'S 



Birds of America 



We have obtained and now offer for sale singly a number of the plates of this magnificent work. 

 These plates are the originals of the edition of 1858, and represent the birds as life size. The sheets 

 are elephant folio, and tbe paper heavy. The drawings were made from nature, and for accuracy 

 of delineation, fidelity to detail and accessories, 



Aududon's Birds have never been equalled. 



Any of these plates if framed would make a 



S-u.x>ex-l> Ornament 



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 

 two and put in small frames. ' 

 There are represented many species of Ducks, Gulls, Grouse, Snipe, Heron and small birds 



almost without number. . , „, . , , 



These plates are so large that they cannot be sent by mail without danger of being crushed, and 

 best method of sending them will be on rollers by express.
