A rare limited edition signed by Moser and Maclean, with fourteeen wood engravings by Barry Moser. Handbound in full golden-tan leather and presented in a magnificent linen clamshell case which is quarter bound in the same leather. Enclosed is an additional suite of the engravings in a pull-out chemise, each signed by Moser, and one of the original flys hand-tied by George Croonenbergs (who taught Maclean the art of fly-tying) which were used for the engravings. One of the most beautiful and rarest Pennyroyal Press editions.
