Osborne; Margaret [SHIEL] — The Collie – First published in 1957
as ‘The Popular Collie’, and still regarded as ‘the classic
work’ on the breed, this publication ran to ten editions, the last
revised by Aileen Speding [ANTOC] in 1986, and countless reprints
making it the longest running publication on the Rough Collie.
Illustrated with black/white photographs and line drawings, it is
Miss Osborne’s unique assessment of principal lines and families together with the comprehensive appendix of post war Challenge Certificate winners, unfortunately curtailed to Champions in the two most recent editions, which enables this book to retain its position as a giant in terms of modern breed literature — 1957/1986 – Hardback – Out of Print – UK/English
publisher: Popular Dogs, London
