Contents include: Skinning Birds β Stuffing and Mounting Birds β Skinning and Stuffing Mammals β Animals Horned Heads β Polishing and Mounting Horns β Skinning, Stuffing and Casting Fish β Preserving, Cleaning and Dying Skins β Preserving Insects and Birds' Eggs β Cases for Specimens etc. Many of the earliest books on taxidermy, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
