An appealing, uncommon and interesting antique print produced in late 18th century America which could readily be collected on it's own merits, displayed or given as a present.
In Fair to Good or better antiquarian condition, mostly clean overall, scattered spotting, foxing or age soiling as clearly seen in scanned image, overall the sheet remains clean and still entirely attractive --
