Gorgeous Victorian Leather Photo Album, Chromolithograph Pages Animals

This one of the most fantastic albums I have ever been able to purchase. It is leather bound with an embossed cover. There are fleur-de-lis in each corner. It has the initials M. H. in gold. The cover has minimal wear with a clasp totally intact. When opened, the nine chromolithograph pages are breath taking. There are lovely landscapes with various animals_ deer, elk, highland cattle, rabbits birds, mountain goats, etc. The first colored page is the front page; the remaining eight have openings for cabinet size photographs. Totally, there are 12 double-sided pages for cabinet size photos, 3 double-sided pages for carte de visite (CDV, 4 each side), and 1 double side page for smaller photos (6 each side). Many of the protective tissues are remaining. The pages are all in very good condition. The album measures 9" x 11 3/4" and weighs 5 1/2 lbs.
