Johnson (Theophilus) Personal Recollections of the Zoo: during a period of Fifty Years, 62 plates of original drawings, of which 35 are fully coloured and 27 are monochrome, plus 20 vignettes in text, occasional spots and minor stains, original green cloth, gilt lettering to spine rubbed, 8vo, [Dartford], Privately Printed, 1905.

⁂ Extremely rare. This copy perhaps of a later issue since the loosely inserted 4pp. on the Walrus are numbered, whereas other copies are known with them unnumbered. Johnson (1836-1919) was born in Tottenham and became an amateur naturalist and artist, privately printing many natural history titles and illustrating them all with his own watercolours and drawings. The examples in this volume are particularly striking and the colours extremely vibrant.
