About this book

Preparing and mounting animals, birds, fish and reptiles at home is the subject of this guide by Albert B. Farnham, a working taxidermist. He begins with a short history of the art and the tools and materials needed, then explains preservatives, skinning, scientific skins and mounting birds from small to large. Later chapters cover tanning, fur rugs and robes, mounting whole animals, heads, horns, feet, fish and reptiles, skulls and skeletons, casting and modelling. The last chapters concern collecting for sale and prices for work.
