Merchants State Bank, Boston, MA, 1880, Original Plan. George Snell

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the facade of Merchants State Bank, Boston, Mass.  HAND-COLORED.  George Snell, Architect(s).  From the American Architect and Building News, February 14, 1880.

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 8.25 by 11.75 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.
