| The Octavo
Editions, called THE BIRDS OF AMERICA from Drawings Made in the United States and its
Territories, was published in seven volumes by the author and J.B. Chevalier, New York and
Philadelphia, 1840-1844. Unlike the Havell edition, this was issued with text and was
considerably smaller--about 10.5" x 6.5". The plates, lithographed in color, measure, again, 10.5" x 6.5". They bear the same legend as the Havell edition except that in the lower right-hand corner, J.T. Bowen is shown as the lithographer. Subsequent editions in the smaller (octavo) size, again called THE BIRDS OF AMERICA from Drawings Made in the United States and its Territories, were published from 1856, after Audubon's death, onward to about 1871. They were printed rather than hand-colored. Underlined prices indicate that a picture of the print is currently available. Click on the underlined price to see the picture.
