Peter Spicer was a true naturalist with vision, an artist and a totally competent taxidermist (taxidermy is in reality art in a case). This ensured the highest quality work, but of course there was a price to pay and the taxidermy of P. Spicer & Sons was expensive in its day. However, finding customers who appreciated the quality and were prepared to pay doesn't seem to have been a problem. A glimpse at some of their patrons listed in their various publications is testimony to this. The cases today are highly sought after and as in their day, can be expensive.
