This antique printing block (along with others we currently have listed on eBay) comes to you estate-fresh from an old Brooklyn, New York brownstone that we recently liquidated.  Found packed away in the old basement workshop they most likely haven't been touched in several decades if not more.

This one depict the entire R. Hoe & Co. factory in New York City.  The large building reads "R. HOE & CO." on the clock-tower.  The smaller building (lower right) reads "R. HOE & CO. - APPRENTICE SCHOOL" (all in reverse as can be expected). 
Metal on wood construction.  Measures 4-3/8" by 3" by 7/8".
Overall nice antique condition w/ a century's worth of light general wear.

Check out the other blocks we've got listed.  Buy several and save on combined shipping.

Cheers!
