Les Chiens de Chasse
'Édité et Imprimé Par La Manufacture Français D'Armes et Cycles de Saint-Étienne (Loire).'
28th Fevrier 1931
Some background Information about the prints
These delightful prints are accurate representations of various breeds of dogs and would make the ideal gift for any dog lover. They normally come with comprehensive text (in French) which outlines various aspects of the breed depicted.
The English names of the dogs are translated from the original french in most cases in the list below. Those translated have the French equivalent listed alongside the English names.
There are two artists who have illustrated this book: P. Mahler and F. Castellan. There is a very slight difference in the styles of each of the artists mentioned, Mahler's images are more solid than Castellan's. However, without comparing them in great detail, it is only the signature on the print which distinguishes the author.
The book also has adverts which are set out in the same way as the prints, they have the same borders. These adverts are for books, guns and the factories that manufacture the guns and published the books.

Before retiring, we supplied picture framers and antiquarian map & print dealers
for over 25 years. The inventory
encompassed examples of the
cartographer's art from the 16th to the 19th century, along with
topographical engravings, lithographs and etchings by
leading artists of their generation. You can Search
my wife's eBay Store Database for historic maps,
views, and engravings on virtually every subject,
including Vanity Fair (Spy) Cartoons. All our offers are genuine
old and historical items on a wide range of subjects.
All are
suitable for framing by Art Galleries, Shops and Fine Art Retailers.
Do visit my wife's eBay Store,
JULIE'S ANTIQUE PRINTS.

prints, engravings, maps and books.
SOME GIFT IDEAS FROM JULIE
FOR THE HARD TO BUY FOR,
perhaps a map or print of somewhere important in their lives. For example, where
they were born, got married, went on honeymoon etc.
A general search should find that, I do have a wide selection
of topographical views and historical maps.
America's,
UK,
Europe,
Asia,
Africa,
Australia,
The World, Etc.
Or do a search for their last name, you will be surprised
what you might discover.
This of course applies to anniversaries, graduations, births etc. For
example some friends of mine are soon to celebrate their Silver Wedding
Anniversary, so I am having the SILVER BIRCH FLOWER
FAIRY matted & framed for them.
Or for the little person in your life, the Cicely M. Barker Flower Fairy
Alphabet makes a wonderful keepsake if you buy the letters to spell their name.
For instance, the letters below spell M A R
Y !
