| Item Description: | Caption title. Niall Kenny description: This sheet was printed to accompany a model of the horse’s foot in paste-board. It had been assumed that no models had survived but one has been found in the RCVS collection (Jan 2013) in its original box. Although the text is signed “B.C. 1820” it makes mention at the bottom of another Clark item as being published in 1822. However, there were at least 2 issues of this leaf as the W and BL copies are clearly different from my own one. Therefore there may be one issue in 1820 and another in 1822. The issues have slightly different titles with the apostrophe in the BL and W copies being “horse’s” rather than as above. In addition some of the terms in the text, referencing the labels on the paste model are different. The text terms in my copy match those found on the surviving model, so is it possible there was a second issue of the model with altered labels which matched the text leaf in the BL and W?
