BIG GAME HUNT IN JAVA

[Leiden] , 1884. 8vo., publisher's yellow wrappers. Printed in Leiden in Javanese, the work deals with a big game hunt in Java. There are four double-page color lithographs (signed in the stone P. J. Mulder) that help tell the story. They are printed in green-brown-red-blue tints and depict (1) The campsite; (2) The hunter and his guide in thick cover aiming at a tiger at close range; (3) The hunter holding his rifle watching the dogs flush out a wild boar; and, (4) Two groups of hunters and their guides, one group carrying a recently killed deer.An interesting combination of exotic letterpress text and color lithography. Undoubtedly uncommon.  FOUR DOUBLE-PAGE COLOR LITHOGRAPHS OF HUNTING
