Bruce Burk GAME BIRD CARVING Eleventh Printing 1972
First edition, eleventh print hardback of GAME BIRD CARVING by Bruce Burk and published by Winchester Press in 1972.The book is in near fine condition (green cloth boards with gold lettering to spine) with some light creasing to the top of the spine. The dust jacket, which is not price clipped, is in very good condition with creasing to the top and bottom of the front cover, spine and top of the back cover. There are two small fingernail closed tears to the bottom of the front cover and top of the back cover. Internally, the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears and no inscriptions.
Game Bird Carving launches the beginner on a simple carving project almost immediately. Detailed instructions and step-by-step photographs take him through his first steps at shaping and painting, and as he progresses he is given additional projects to stimulate his interest and improve his skill.
The carver is then taught how to plan and execute original carvings by understanding bird anatomy, by adapting existing drawings and photographs, by making his own drawings, and by careful planning. He is led on to advanced carving and painting techniques - how to carve individual feathers, how to achieve the effect of iridescence - that can help him achieve professional results.
Magnificently illustrated, thoroughly researched, fully indexed Game Bird Carving is a must for amateur or professional carvers.
