Plate 32 with P9783L in the upper right-hand corner, this engraving depicts a male Horned Grebe and there should be a female Horned Grebe to the right, if the illustration was complete; the female has no tuft like the male does here; see John James Audubon's first octavo edition of "Birds of America" published from 1840 to 1844 for the original illustration of this plate; we have not been able to find this illustration of the male Horned Grebe anywhere, at least not all by itself, and we believe this plate was created after the original plate was printed; the plate measures 23 1/2 x 17 5/8 and the image measures 17 1/4 x 13 3/8 in wide, to benefit the Sarasota Audubon Society. Please note that all sales are final. No refunds will be given under any circumstances.
