These were printed with the "tipped-in" method.This technique involves lightly applying adhesive to a small area (usually the edges) of the print and then carefully attaching it to a designated page in the book. Tipped-in plates are commonly used for illustrations, photographs, or artwork that are printed separately from the main text pages, often on different paper. This method allows for the inclusion of high-quality or color illustrations in a book, enhancing its aesthetic and informational value.
Dimensions: Approx. 19 x 21.5 cm (7.67 x 8.46 inches)
Condition: Paper toning in accordance with the print's age. Marks/stains as per scan. Wear around the edges and minor losses to paper might be present in some prints.
