AMERICAN WATER and GAME BIRDS. By Austin L. Rand. Silhouettes by Ugo Mochi.
1956 1st edition. Large 4to (232 x 310mm). Pp239. Colour and b/w photographs by Allan D. Cruickshank, Eliot Porter, Helen Cruickshank, Cy La Tour, Eric Hosking, b/w silhouettes by Ugo Mochi. Blind-stamped silhouette to two-tone green paper-covered boards.
This is a detailed account of North American sea- and fresh-water birds (not just quarry species) and game birds, with full-page photograph plates, and many engaging silhouettes of bird scenes by Ugo Mochi. All of Mochi's silhouettes are cut from a single piece of paper, and are remarkably instructive, particularly as exercises in composition.
