This is an original period intaglio-gravure print. This print has a full-page description on reverse (may not be shown).

This print is from an issue of The Mentor magazine, which was first published in 1913 (thru 1931) by The Mentor Association, "Established for the Development of a Popular Interest in Art, Literature, Science, History, Nature and Travel". The Mentor Library was vast and covered a wide range of interesting topics. Many of the covers themselves (especially the later color ones) are all very artistic and fine works of art, and are highly collectible!
