| Antique Print Cocker Spaniel Dog ArtBeautiful, high quality sepia tinted book illustration of a dog breed photo by one of the most famous dog photographers of his day - Thomas Fall "This little fellow probably took his name from the fact that he was the most suitable type of Spaniel for working coverts when woodcock shoots were in progress. He is the smallest of the race of Spaniels and, known in this country for over a century, is undoubtedly a most popular breed, not only as a pet but on the show bench. Although the original type was red and white, those of our time (1930s) are black, blue, roan, red and golden, the blacks being the most fashionable.' (1934) |
