I am going to list them over the course of the next few days, together, to facilitate an interested buyer finding them among my many listings.

The first collection of American big game trophies of which we have record was made by Queen Elizabeth during the 16th Century. Her officials in the transatlantic colonies were commissioned to send back to England the finest specimens obtainable in the new world. As a result, five great moose heads were shipped to England and found a place of honor in the Great Hall of Hampton Court Palace over the dais where a succession of British sovereigns has dined on state occasions. The present day visitor will recognize them with some difficulty for the officers of the Queen's household evidently had little faith in the taxidermists of their time and no scruples against nature faking. The horns were affixed to carved wooden replica of Cervus elaphus, the European red deer, the game animal with which the English wood carvers of the day were most familiar.
