This is an original lithograph over 150 years old, drawn by J.W. Audubon and colored and printed by J.T. Bowen of Philadelphia. There are two thin lines in the right margin that will be obscured by the matt and barely noticeable. They do not extend to the image which is crisp and beautifully colored. It is Plate 123 of the octavo quadrupeds and an excellent picture of the beaver in its normal environment. The price leaves plenty of room for professional framing of this important early American art form.

Store Description

I am a retired physician who has collected antiques, antique steins, prints, lithographs, and books for many years. Over the past few years I have begun to downsize my collection through auctions and on-line resources. I also have a booth in the Mississippi Antique Galleria in Gulfport, Mississippi, but work primarily out of my home in Gulfport. I have donated about 300 books to my county library system, and youth groups. I plan to list at least 100 prints (Audubon original octavos, Amsterdams, others, and 100 books. No textbooks, paperbacks, or medical. The books are primarily vintage.
