    Description

    This is a set of 7 luncheon plates made by Alfred Meakin in London. These plates are based and reproduced from the Elephant Folio Edition of Audubon's Bird's of America. The back states this information along with 'Endorsed by National Audubon Society New York" along with the name of the bird feature. Below is a list of the birds included in this set and any issues (if any they may have). All of them do present crazing which is expected with age and some do have a little staining which I will point out and attempted to photograph. I originally thought that I had 8 of these plates and then noticed that I had a double plate (therefore the strange photographs). There are no chips or cracks on these plates.
    I do have 5 more of these plates (duplicates) listed on a separate auction (unless they have sold).
    Plate# 17 - Carolina Turtle Dove
    Plate#114 - White Crowned Sparrow
    Plate# 18 - Bewick's Wren (little stain area right above the top leaf on the left)
    Plate# 79 - Kingbird
    Plate# 367 - Band-Tailed Pigeon
    Plate# 168 - Fork-Tailed Flycatcher
    Plate# 43 - Cedar Bird
