Description

Description:

This antique lithograph print from Cassell’s Poultry Book features “Psyche,” a prize-winning Dark Brahma Pullet, owned by Mr. L. Wright, which won First Prize at Birmingham in 1871. The Dark Brahma is a distinguished poultry breed known for its large frame, striking feather patterns, and excellent utility as both a meat and egg-laying bird.

Produced by Vincent Brooks, Day & Son, Lithographers, this beautifully detailed Victorian-era print captures the grace and strength of this award-winning pullet, set against a scenic rural backdrop. The print itself measures approximately 17 x 20 cm and has been mounted on black cardboard with a 2cm border, making it perfect for display or framing.

📌 Condition: This is an original late 19th-century print, not a reproduction. Given its age, there may be minor signs of wear, including light foxing, edge discoloration, or slight creasing, all of which contribute to its authentic antique charm.

A must-have collectible for poultry breeders, vintage print collectors, and admirers of historic agricultural illustrations.
