"Alpomado Falcon" Hand Colored Bird Lithograph from USPRR Exploration
Survey
Located in Alamo, CA
This striking hand colored stone lithograph of a "Alpomado Falcon" was created by John Cassin (1813-1869) and is Plate 1 in the "USPRR Exploration and Survey Report", published in Washington, DC in 1859.
