1872 vintage finely engraved print by D Appleton & Co from a painting "City of Cincinnati" by A C Warren. This item does not quite fit on my scanner; the actual page will be slightly larger. Any shading at the edges of the margins is due to light entering my scanner, the paper is consistent throughout. Landscape image: (8.8" x 5.3") Page: (11.9" x 8.7") Printed on a heavy bond paper. Tiny ink flaw in the clouds at the left top, two tiny dents in the sky just above the left suspension bridge tower, a few small light creases in the margins. Blank on the reverse (with the exception of a few marks which do not show through on the front). Steel engravings do not scan well, sometimes producing artifacts (wavy lines, crosshatching) that are not in the print. I have included some cuts to show detail.
