Framing Information

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Lithograph of Entrance Feature of the Building of the Massachusetts Historical Society, 1154 Boylston St., Boston, Mass.   EARLY PHOTOGRAPH.   Wheelwright and Haven, Architects.  From the American Architect and Building News, August 19, 1899.

This picture is extremely hard to find.  The American Architect and Building News had a very small circulation during this time and these original lithographs only appeared in a very limited number of issues that were distributed to a few prominent architects. It measures 13.5 by 16 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole picture measures approximately 17 by 19 inches (with border).  Extraordinary detail in this early photographic print.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with browning around the edges and light crinkling. Columbia U. Library stamp lower right corner.

This is a highly unusual, scarce item.  See our other auctions for more original pictures from this era.
