$a All plates are signed as drawn by Edwin Landseer (the last two, as painted by him), and as engraved by him or Thomas Landseer or J. (or T?) Landseer. Only plate [8a] does not carry the name of an engraver. The title-plate vignette is signed as drawn by Edwin Landseer and engraved by John Landseer. Each plate carries the publishers' imprint of P. and D. Colnaghi and the date (Nov. 8 1852). |
| 520 | 2 | # | $a The plates show some of the earliest drawings and etchings of Landseer - his signature on the plates sometimes being followed by the words 'in his 8th' [or '9th' or '10th'] 'year'.

Simpson', [[8a] 'A British Boar', [8b] 'A French Hog', [9] 'An Alpine Mastiff. The Largest Dog in England, brought from Mount St. Bernard, and now at Leasowe Castle near Liverpool ...', [10] 'A French Hog, The Property of Mr. Bacon of the Black Boy Inn, Chelmsford', [11] 'A British Boar, The Property of C.C.
