Uncolored Octavos from the
The Birds of North America

These uncolored octavos are test sheets from the time after the first edition 
as work started on the second edition. These represent an interesting piece of history. 
Most are uncolored but two have some coloring.  There is some staining which 
is visible in the pictures. Some are better than others.
