We are a group of the UK's largest and most dedicated collectors. We are always seeking to purchase only quality items of Victorian and Modern taxidermy. This Website is now the most comprehensive worldwide, and was established August 2004. Arguably this site represents a History of British Taxidermy, given the number of taxidermists represented. No other internet site has the same level of detail and content. Not a boast just a simple fact.

| Now there are Hutchings collectors and there are Hutchings collectors. This chap is perhaps the largest. These images are just a sample of what is in the collection. Most people do not have 40 cases by Hutchings let alone 44 foxes by one person. Also an additional 33 cases of foxes by other makers, so nearly 100 in total. Add that to the additional 1200 other quality cases and this is quiet a collection. That said we are always interested in buying more of the same. Just click on the Dragon below to see more images. |

153 individual pages. The most comprehensive website dedicated to this subject. We will buy everything of quality you have for sale, no exceptions. To coin a phrase made recently, we collect dead people's dead things. We are now entering a new phase in this site's development, more to follow.
 Impressive Little Tern and chicks display by Charles Thorpe of Croydon (Ex Andy Henry collection). It appears that this image has excited a few people and rightly so for it is a lovely and desirable case. Go on, "borrow" the image if you must, we have had the exclusive anyway. Latest offer on this case is £2000, so its going to be expensive to own, that shouldn't be a problem.
 Snowy Owl by Peter Spicer. Copywrite Mr Sailor. Many thanks for its unrestricted use. We have been looking for a suitable image to create a limited edition free print from for a while. Close ups of this image to follow on the Peter Spicer page.
![Redstart20Cooper [640x480].jpg](Redstart20Cooper [640x480].jpg) Redstart by John Cooper & Sons. Another recently acquired case. Cooper was princpally a fish taxidermist and this is both a rare and interesting example of his work.
 And they say that taxidermy collectors are a weird bunch. Just don't get it!!!!!!!. Apparently it says Rowland Ward underneath and fresh to the market.
 Historical view of the British Natural History musuem, preparing a Gorilla.
 Andean Condors by Small of Edinburgh
 Ptarmigan. Nicely posed and detailed. Interesting subject matter and case compilation.
 Ptarmigan. This is a case by Peter Spicer, the quality is obvious, well to the relative experts that is. When victorian mounts age they develop a charm all of their own. Apparently this site is going downhill. Don't think so, it is the largest resource on the internet and free to all.
 Hobby. Interesting subject matter and case compilation. You might want to go to the Spicer page on this site and see what Spicer Hobby's should look like.
 Purple Sandpipers. Acquired in the Shetland Isles circa 1890. Unknown taxidermist.

Additional 68 Featured Historical Taxidermy pages within this site from the 144 pages packed within information on this subject making it the most comprehensive globally.
This "website" has consulted with and has been
critically reviewed by European Regulatory Authorities / Defra, monitoring
the sale of taxidermy and representatives of the UK Guild Of Taxidermists
to ensure that it complies with Current Guidance / Licencing on the
ownership and display of Taxidermy Specimens here in the UK. You are more
than welcome to check, the link(s) to Defra and The Guild's legal expert
are located half way up this page and within the site in general. In so far as is both reasonable and practical, we understand that all the modern items of taxidermy shown on this site were are informed by their owners to have the appropriate licences and documentation. Sooooooo no need to go running as we are regular contact. Perhaps it is you that should be worried?.
With reference to "Modern" examples, those produced after 1947,
we are interested in purchasing these also, but must have relevant and
appropriate Defra and CITES licences, when appropriate.
Cases without such information shall be declined. We suggest you make your
own investigations in this area to avoid confusion. Further information can be obtained at www.ukcites.gov.uk, www.defra.gov.uk/wildlife-countryside/index.htm and www.eu-wildlifetrade.org
