Sherman f. Denton. This is said to be
the most beautiful hand work ever
published. 1t is in two volumes, per-
fectly printed and with more than 400
illustrations in the text of all the moths
and butterflies Of the United States
east of the Rocky mountains.
The ordinary edition is textbook
throughout the world. But this is the
special limited edition in which there
are added fifty-six actual transfers OF
butterflies from life to paper. That Is
the wings of the butterfly or moth are
actually mounted on the plate, The
bodv could not be thus treated with
out "sduashing," so 1t is photographed,
engraved, printed in and colored by
hand. But these transferred plates
are without doubt the most extra
ordinary hand work ever done in the
Illustrations of a book of nature.
Mr.. Denton has long been known as
the foremost authority in America on
butterflies and the proper collecting
and preserving of them. He is the in
ventor of the methods used in all i'm
nortant museums today and for the
preservation of collections OF lapldop-
terra. These wonderful plates are all
made with his own hand.
These two volumes Will be put IN
the glass case at the library at once
and turned plate by plate daily, so that
the largest number of visitors may see
them in the shortest time.
