    Period age toning and handling wear
    This is an original
    1899
    print rescued from one of the many books published of the History of the United States and its role in world history.
    Photographs and illustrations in these books have exceptional detail. They often depict people or scenes from a different perspective than usually seen in more formal prints and may no longer exist after over the century.
    It is a piece of the past.

    The Nature of Prints & Engravings
    : It was not until the 20th century that prints were commonly produced for the
    print
    itself. Prior to this, virtually all prints (and engravings) were produced as
    illustrations
    to be included in a manuscript, book, newspaper, or pamphlet. Therefore, a vast majority of original prints have been over the years removed from these original sources. Prints are produced using many different techniques:
    relief printing
    (woodcut & wood engraving),
    intaglio printing
    (steel & copper plate engraving, drypoint, aquatint, etc), and
    planographic printing
    (lithography, serigraphy, inkjet, laser, etc.).  While the commercial value of a print depends on such factors as age, rarity, and condition, the real value of a print is its tie to its history and/or its esthetic beauty.
