This engraving, titled "Prize Pigeons at the Show of the Philo-Peristeron Society" takes us back to a prestigious event held in Freemasons Hall. The image showcases an array of exquisite birds that were showcased and admired by enthusiasts from all walks of life. The scene is bustling with excitement as visitors marvel at the stunning variety of prize pigeons on display. Each bird exudes its unique charm and elegance, representing different breeds such as magpies, jacobins, brunswicks, carriers, turbits, pouters, and fantails. Their vibrant colors and intricate feather patterns are a testament to their breeders' dedication and expertise. Amongst the crowd's favorites are Mr. Wicking's Magpie pigeon with its striking black-and-white plumage and Mr. Harrison Weir's White Fantails known for their graceful tail feathers. Notably present is also Mr. Haynes Carrier Cock who stands tall with his regal appearance. The atmosphere within Freemasons Hall is electric; conversations filled with admiration for these avian wonders can be heard echoing throughout the grand hall.
