Audubon Birds of America Vintage Illustration Pack 7, 14 Printable Plates

A themed pack of 14 printable vintage plates from John James Audubon's The Birds of America (Havell edition, London, 1827–1838), the great double-elephant folio of American birds, made for junk journals, scrapbooking, card making, collage, decoupage and paper crafts. Print them at home, cut them out and layer them into your projects. The files are full-size original scans, so they are also big enough to frame as wall art.

Plates included: Purple Finch (Plate 4), Bonaparte's Flycatcher (Plate 5), White-throated Sparrow (Plate 8), Selby's Flycatcher (Plate 9), Dark-eyed Junco (Plate 13), Prairie Warbler (Plate 14), Northern Parula (Plate 15), Bewick's Wren (Plate 18), Louisiana Waterthrush (Plate 19), Yellow-breasted Chat (Plate 23), Roscoe's Yellow-throat (Plate 24), Song Sparrow (Plate 25), Blue-headed Vireo (Plate 28), Eastern Towhee (Plate 29).

Print size: Full-size original museum and library scans, never resized: about 16,100–16,200 px on the long edge. Every plate prints sharp up to about 37 × 53 in at 300 dpi (based on the smallest plate; most go larger), and down to A4, US Letter or A5 with no loss. The shapes vary slightly because they're original book pages.

Files: 14 high-resolution JPGs, about 16,100–16,200 px on the long edge (740 MB total), delivered as one zip download.
