PLEASE LOOK AT PHOTOS
Good Condition. This is a wonderful double-sided lithograph that is hand-tinted and displays the patent history of TYPES OF NAILS & SPIKES, and (on the other side) SCREW MAKING MACHINES. This is an original litho from The Growth of Industrial Art, Washington DC Government Printing Office; edited by Benjamin Butterworth. Measures a very large 19.5 x 15.5" - would look great framed! Some chipping at very edges, but this can easily be covered with matting. Will ship well protected in poster tube. NOTE: The image I have added is in grey scale so it is clearer, but this litho is actually hand colored in areas. I have included an FYI example of the hand coloring that was used.
