These beautiful chromolithographs were skillfully
executed by one of the very finest of later artists of
natural history, Sherman Foote Denton. The Fish and
Game of the State of
New York Annual Reports
1895-1909, included 99 fresh and saltwater fish
as well as several other subjects, including lobsters,
oysters, Ring-Necked Pheasant and the Virginia deer.
They were published both in books and unbound in a folio
set, and it is the prints from the folio set that we are
pleased to offer at this time.
Each print is approximately 9 1/4 inches by 12 inches
with bright, vibrant color on quality, slightly creamy
paper that is generally unblemished. There is no
descriptive text, but a copy of the title on the folio
box will be provided. These beautiful prints have
become an enduring tribute to the extraordinary man who
painted them & as much a part of Americana as the
Audubon & McKenney & Hall which preceded them. We are
very pleased to offer them in such pristine condition.
