Home for Little Wanderers, West Newton St, Jamaica Plain, Boston, 1887, Original Plan Hand Colored

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Home for Little Wanderers, West Newton Street, Jamaica Plain, Boston, Massachusetts.  HAND-COLORED.  Keister & Wallis, Architect(s).  From the American Architect and Building News,  July 2, 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 approximately 12 by 8 inches.  It has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures 16 by 12 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.
