Review: Butterflies of the World (Franklin Mint)
A review of the complete set of Butterflies of the World by the Franklin Mint (mid 1980s). These are not models or toys, but rather porcelain figurines produced as collectibles in the mid-1980s (I think most were released 1985-1986). I think the way they were originally sold, is you subscribe to the set and you get one a month for 15 months. I have always thought about acquiring this set and finally decided to go for it.
There are 15 figures, all but four of them have not been made yet in toy form to my knowledge (and of those, one only as a larva), so it’s a good way to get several new/unique species! I have to admit--pics on line to NOT do these figurines justice. Holy cow, they are NICE!
I have supplied the Latin names for both the butterflies and the flowers on which they are sitting, based on the common names provided. I am not a botanist and did not feel like researching to see if the butterfly and its corresponding flower actually occur together in nature (for a couple of the North American species I know they are matches!).
