Framing Information

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of Westinghouse's Atmospheric Brake for Railway Cars.  HAND-COLORED.  From the 1884 edition of "Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary" as "PLATE VII".

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 15 by 8 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 19 by 12 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.
