ETCHING: FLAMINGO HABITAT (AKA) by Hobbs, Brockunier & Company/Wheeling-WV (Company Operated:1845-1888), 1880s Introduced
NOTE: No. 77 and No. 53 blanks were used. The scenes change from form to form but always have storks (not flamingos) and a bamboo and arch element that appears somewhere in the etching. The sole exception to this is the salver where the arch is not present, just the bamboo.
