(Celestial Hemispheres- Zodiac- Globes- Solar System- Planets & Planetary orbits- Night Sky- Telescopes).
Issued London, 1802-20 by Longman, Hurst, Reese, & Orme. Engraved by Milton & Wilson Lowry.
Excellent lot of nine (9) early 19th century antique engraved celestial related prints. All are attractive and well-preserved examples, appropriate individually or as a group for display.
Short video captures condition much better than words. Please watch prior to purchase to ensure a clear understanding of the lot. Nicer lot than typical for the type.
Minor light spotting or age toning as typical for printed images of this 200+ year old vintage, perhaps small minor paper flaws, one with old embossed institution stamp in lower blank margin corner, but to our eyes and for most people, all remain entirely acceptable and nice looking examples.
Sheets measure c. 11 1/4" x 8 3/4".
