You are bidding on a huge original antique Engraving from a 1900 illustrated journal.

 

It depicts a lively dance with two handsome American sailors on the deck of a ship. Men and boys cheer.

It is very large (double folio size), measuring approximately 21.5 x 15.75 inches (54.5 x 40 cm). The picture fills most of the page, with a caption below. The back of this print has unrelated text/photos on the back.

The print has a fold in the middle, where it was folded into the magazine long ago. Note that the fold line is clean and undamaged, because it was "tipped" into the binding. This was a luxury binding technique of that era, because the double page prints were free of binding holes down the center.

The page is in excellent condition for its age EXCEPT for a tear along the top fold line that just touches into the top of the picutre area. It could be repaired on the back with archival tape. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.

This print will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
