Carnegie Library, Allegheny, PA, 1887, W. S. Fraser, Archt., Original Plan, Hand Colored

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Proposed Carnegie Library, Allegheny, Pennsylvania.  HAND-COLORED.  W. S. Fraser, Architect.  From the American Architect and Building News, February 28, 1887.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 12 by 16 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 16 by 20 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with very light browning and some minor crinkling.
