[Joslin Hall Rare Books, Ephemera & Photographs]

A pair of early books on pheasant farming, offered as a lot for $60.

“Pheasant Farming”

By ‘Gene M. Simpson.
Published by the Oregon Fish and Game Commission in 1914.

Eugene Simpson and his wife were pioneers in the field of farming 
pheasants, and his first booklet on the subject was published around 
1906, with a second edition in 1908, and then this version, which was 
written and published after he became a game bird specialist for the 
newly-formed Oregon Fish and Game Commission.

Softcover. 6.5”x9.5”, 50 pages, black & white illustrations. The covers 
have some light wear and some soil. The book itself has some minor wear, 
an "Oregon Bird & Pheasant Farm" stamp on the title page, and some 
period ink-written notes about raising pheasants on a rear blank page.
