Society of Medalists Issue No. 1, Hunter and Dog - Grouse, 1930
[b] From the collection of John Birks[/b]

[i]Numbers Issued:  3,235 bronze, 125 silver[/i]

[b]From the Artist:[/b]

I chose the hunter with his dog because it presented the opportunity of telling a story embodying a human and animal element.  It has been studied as to correctness of detail so that it should have an appeal to those who are interested ion out-of door life.  The ruffed grouse forms the reverse.  It may be considered as a national game bird and is distinct in character and very decorative.
