Extinct monsters and creatures of other days: a popular account of some of the larger forms of ancient animal life

Hutchinson, H. N. (Henry Neville), 1856-1927 · 1911 · New York, D. Appleton and company · 14 pictures

Hutchinson's 1911 popular natural history book, published in New York by D. Appleton and company, gives a general audience an account of large extinct animals. The pictures are black-and-white scientific line drawings of fossil skeletons and bones, plus a rhinoceros plate, drawn in careful detail with clean outlines and little shading, useful to designers wanting precise skeletal diagrams and archival engraved-style linework.
