Eiffel Tower, Paris, France, 1885, M.G. Eiffel, Architect, Original Plan

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Eiffel Tower, Paris, France.  HAND-COLORED.  M. G. Eiffel, Architect. From the American Architect and Building News, February 21, 1885.

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 8 by 12 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 12 by 16 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with light browning along the edges and some light crinkling.
