The only complete printing of Audubon’s original 435 plates have been
the Amsterdam Edition in 1972 and the Abbeville Press Edition issued by
the National Audubon Society in 1985. Both Ariel and Princeton are
reprints of selected plates. Princeton has limited each reprint to 1,500
copies. Ariel originally was limited to 250 copies of 40 plates, but
numerous reprints have occurred since it was first issued in 1972. The
Abbeville prints are limited to 350 sets and have an embossed watermark
along the print edge. Since they are limited and a complete reprint, the
Abbeville prints sell for more than the Ariel or Princeton reprints, but
generally less than the Amsterdam which were issued earlier and limited
to 250 sets. Listed below by plate number you will find a select group
of each of these series.
