Currier & Ives Northern c.1860's Female Beauty Jewelry earrings antique print

The Northern Beauty

(Beauty- Youth-Lovely female- Jewelry- earrings- head dress)

Issued NY, ca. 1860-70's by Currier & Ives. 152 Nassau street

Fine original antique lithograph print. With nice original hand color.

Sheet shows signs of age which include toning, faint old dampstaining, blank margins trimmed down, small scattered tiny age spots, etc- various signs of being old. The overall visual appearance remains high, the sheet has developed a nice patina and will look fine once framed.

Short edge split closed on back, some toning [likely from 100+ years against old wooden frame], the printed area is actually rather clean & well preserved- should be possible to mat/ frame this nice image so it looks pleasing.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The photos are a major part of the item description. Please examine them closely, as what you see is what we will send you. [note: we grade conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws.].

Condition is carefully considered in arriving at our price.

Still, a great old color print entirely worthy of hanging for display.

A depiction captured in a manner entirely unique to this era.
