Pp. 215, 50 full page fine color plates. Polished gilt-decorated half morocco over green suede-covered boards, a.e.g., folio. This work features 50 finely executed paintings of the rarest bird species by noted Sydney artist, Blake Twigden. The limitation page states this edition was limited to 2000 copies but given volume's scarcity, it is likely that less than 1000 copies were actually printed.
