Two works bound as a set of 11 volumes, consisting of the seventh (final) Octavo Edition of The Birds of America in 8 volumes and the fourth (final) Octavo Edition of The Quadrupeds of North America in 3 volumes. Complete texts present: Audubon for The Birds, Audubon and Bachman for The Quadrupeds. Brief biography of John James Audubon, written by George R. Lockwood, included in Volume I of The Birds. Tinted, hand-colored, black-ink lithographic plates, 100 of birds and 31 of mammals, printed on thin cotton-rag paper. Please note: Only 100 of the originally issued 500 plates of birds, and 31 of the originally issued 155 plates of quadrupeds, are present. The remaining original plates were not included in this bespoke binding, a single plate having been selected from each original 5-plate Part. Plates placed in sequential order by Part number, proximal to respective text entries. Drawn, after art by J. J. and J. W. Audubon, by W. E. Hitchcock, R. Trembly, and others.

Marbled endpapers to match boards. Fore-edges of plates showing some original gilt. Bound with heavy paper stock in lieu of tissue guards. Incompletely trimmed pencil markings at upper right edge of some plates as an artifact of the binding process (indicating placement in the text block). Stiff binder's blanks added to some volumes, affording greater uniformity of spine width across the set. The Birds: 8 v.

John James Audubon and his sons, John Woodhouse and Victor Gifford Audubon, used a camera lucida to reduce the original double elephant folio images to a large octavo size to produce the lithographs for the royal octavo edition of The Birds (referred to by Audubon as the "petit edition" and "The Birds in Miniature"). The same method was employed by the sons to produce the images used for the royal octavo edition of The Quadrupeds. The text for the octavo Birds was adapted by John James Audubon from his "Ornithological Biography," which had been offered separately in association with the original Double Elephant Folio. The text for the octavo Quadrupeds was written mostly by John Bachman with contributions from the aging John James Audubon and the assistance of Victor Audubon. The seventh edition of the octavo Birds and the fourth edition of the octavo Quadrupeds were the final editions produced, as, shortly after they were published, the lithographic stones were destroyed in a warehouse fire. The octavo editions were sold partly through subscription in 100 5-plate Parts (500 images), loosely bound and delivered, plus the original texts, in brown paper covers. Subscribers having received a volume worth of images and text would often have the Parts unbound and then trimmed and rebound as sets, sometimes The Birds and The Quadrupeds together. The octavo editions were also issued as many complete, bound sets. Ref: Steiner pp. 93-94, 108, 148; Clark/Bannon pp. 41-43, 73-76. The volumes offered here could have been issued either in Parts or in publisher's original binding, then broken apart and selectively re-bound.
