A pencil signed print from near the end of his long and productive life, by the noted American caricaturist, ALBERT (AL) HIRSCHFELD (1903-2003). The work, in his typical black and white for which he is famous (although he did also work in color), features a family portrayed in the popular Fox TV show "Party of Five", which aired from 1994 through 2000. It is numbered 40/100 at lower left and pencil signed by the artist at lower right...

An offset limited edition pencil signed print of St. Michael's Church in historic downtown Charleston, South Carolina, pencil signed by the artist, Charleston's long time fixture VIRGINIA FOUCHE BOLTON (1929-2004). The 13 1/2" by 20 3/4" print (22 1/2" by 29" framed) is numbered near the signature at bottom center 622/2000...

A highly attractive, eye-catching contemporary lithograph for home or office, circa 1970's or 1980's, featuring black horses in profile in a very decorative design of white and bright pure yellow, 19 1/4" by 26 1/2" in side the mat, 27 1/2" by 34 1/2" framed, pencil signed at lower right and numbered LXI/CXXV (61/125), by the well-known and highly sought after French artist ANDRE BRASILIER (1929-)...

Miro lithograph, "La Danse de Feu", ("The Fire Dance"), 1963, Mourlot 273, the sheet 15" by 22" (17 1/2" by 23 1/2" as framed), numbered in pencil 39/90 at lower left and pencil signed at lower center. The work is printed to the edges with no margin, and there is text on reverse, as shown. There is a soft center crease as issued with 1/4"-1/2" short tears along that pronounced crease at the very bottom and top due to the weakness from having been repeatedly folded...

This larger (19 3/4" by 36") work "GRAVITY -- Commission Ellwood Kieser" dates to the year 1973. The message, reading "gravity-like, He draws us lovingly into that deep dark center which is Himself. Ego dying. Soul reborning. Meaning revealing. Psyche healing. Shackle bursting. Mind spreading. Love empowering. Ellwood E Kieser" is placed in the rich green area. This colorful print is by SISTER MARY CORITA KENT (1918-1986)...

Etching of a young woman in dreamy sleep, 11 1/2" by 8 1/2" (14 3/4" by 11 3/4" simply framed), titled in the plate "Die Rosen", signed in the plate and again in the margin below in pencil by the German-born artist OTTO GOETZE (1868-1945). The artist's name is also sometimes spelled "Goetz" and some cite a death date of 1931. Goetze was born in Germany and was in San Francisco by 1930. Though evidently little known, judging at least from this sensitively rendered print, he was a master etcher...

A scarce lithograph print, the sheet 10 3/8" by 6 3/4" (13 1/2" by 10 1/2" in inexpensive modern framing) signed in the plate and dated 1893 by the noted French artist PAUL-ALBERT BESNARD (1849-1934). The image is a self-portrait of the Paris-born artist, who initially worked in the academic tradition before changing over around 1880 to an impressionist style. Besnard was commissioned to execute a number of murals at significant venues around Paris...

A charming little etching "Cape Ann Near Gloucester", so titled at bottom center, signed in the plate at lower right with the signature of listed American artist LOUIS KINNEY HARLOW (1850-1913). At lower left in smaller type is "Genuine Engraved Etching". The print likely dates to about the 1890's or 1900. Harlow was born in Massachusetts and became known as a prolific watercolorist in New England, producing coastals, landscapes, and images of familiar places...

Linocut print, the sheet 10 1/4" by 14", unframed, numbered at lower left 70/100 and pencil signed at lower right and dated there 1971, the "HB" blind stamp nearby, by the important and still highly underrated Swiss-California modernist HANS GUSTAV BURKHARDT (1904-1994). The subject is somewhat uncertain; perhaps a look at a catalogue raisonne of the artist's graphic works would provide the title...

A gallery poster of the year 1977 promoting a Fifth Avenue exhibition at the Robert Miller Gallery, for Pop Artist LARRY RIVERS (1923-2002). The colorful and complex image is signed by Rivers with felt marker at lower right and numbered 46/100. Larry Rivers, born in the Bronx of Ukrainian Jewish parentage, is considered a major figure of the second generation of the New York School...

**ONE OF FIVE WORKS I AM OFFERING BY THE ARTIS, this is an etching on paper print, 8 1/2" by 10 1/2" inside the mat (14 1/4" by 16 1/4" as framed), signed in pencil at lower left by noted western American artist GEORGE ELBERT BURR (1859-1939)...

Etching titled in pencil at lower margin "Springtime", pencil signed at lower right by the National Academician artist, JOHN EDWARD COSTIGAN (1888-1972). The print measures 10" by 11 3/4" inside the mat, 17" by 19" in modern day gold frame. Costigan was known for his sympathetic portrayals of what he knew and loved best, the people and countryside of upstate New York, where he lived on a farm in Orangeburg. A native of Providence, and an orphan, he was moved to New York City, where he learned a...

For the Hawaiiana fans, here is a clean Hale Pua anthuriums print, 13 3/4" by 10 3/4" (24 1/2" by 20 1/2" framed). Close up magnification shows it to be some kind of later photo of an original airbrush painting, I believe (offset printing-type dots visible with a magnifier). The color seems to be just printed on rather than airbrushed, the signature, likewise. You need a magnifying glass to tell the difference. If you are looking for the decorative Hawaiiana look, you can't go wrong with th...

ONE OF A NUMBER BY THE ARTIST IN MY SHOP**A PAIR of small etchings (one, "Cypress Trees at the Beach", 4 3/4" by 6" inside the mat, and 10 1/2 by 11 1/2" framed, the other, "Old Chinese Telephone Exchange", 6" by 4 1/8" and 11 1/2" by 9 1/2" framed), by the noted California artist HARRIET GENE ROUDEBUSH (1908-1998). The artist titled both in margin and signed at lower right. Roudebush was born in Portland, Oregon and moved to Sacramento as a youth. Art education in the Bay Area followed, in the...

An original gallery poster from Old Town Circle Gallery, San Diego, for a September/October 1981 exhibition of the works of the artist, YAACOV AGAM (1928-). In typical style, the artist has HAND SIGNED the poster in color markers at lower right; he did it in that vibrating, repeating style for which he is known, each signature in a different color marker. Agam's works have sold at auction to about the $700,000 level, and frequently into six figures, making him an important Israeli artist. He ...

This is a fine wood engraving from the end of the 1920's by well listed American printmaker LYND WARD (1905-1985). The work is from the 1929 woodcut novel "God's Man" by Ward. Measuring 6 3/8" by 4 1/2" inside the mat (13 1/2" by 11 1/2" as framed) this print is by an artist well recognized today especially for his achievements in the graphic arts and illustration art. He was an associate of the National Academy, and examples by his hand grace the collections of the Library of Congress and mus...

This Francisco de Goya etching was published as a frontispiece to the 1922 Delteil edition of "Le Peintre Graveur Illustre". In beautiful original unframed condition.

Original white line woodcut (aka Provincetown woodblock or woodcut) by Virginia Bill (USA, 1865-1960), circa 1930. In excellent condition. Archivally matted and framed. This work is signed by the artist lower right and is titled lower left "Portuguese Jewish Cemetery 11th Street N.Y." This is a view of an ancient Sephardic cemetery in New York, or rather of what was left of it after most of it was destroyed by road construction. A great work by an elusive proponent of the white line technique...

Poster from the year 1981 for the exhibit "In + Out City Limits: Boston" exhibition of photos by the famous, important contemporary American artist ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG (1925-2008), **hand signed** in red marker at lower left. The poster measures 25 1/2" by 19 1/2" (33" by 26 1/2" framed--no glass). Rauschenberg, according to the askart listing, is "one of the major artists of his generation, credited with Jasper Johns of breaking the stronghold of Abstract Expressionism". He is known for his...

Miniature sized etching (2 1/2" by 3 1/4", and 7 1/2" by 8" framed), titled in margin at lower left in pencil "Cape Cod Shoreline", and pencil signed at lower right by Massachusetts listed artist MARGARET ELDER PHILBRICK (1914-1999). This is a mid-century work, I would guess, by a woman artist who was known for still life and landscape works, primarily in the etching medium. She was a member of the Society of American Etchers, and the Brooklyn Society of Etchers. She won the John Taylor Arms ...

This is an example of the MARC CHAGALL (1887-1985) lithograph "The Tribe of Joseph", from The Jerusalem Windows series of the early 1960's. Measurements are 12 1/2" by 9 3/4", so, this is I believe from a book, and it is much smaller in size than the edition of 150 pencil signed version of the print. It is however a true lithograph and not a dot offset print. I examined this out of the frame (and it is loose under the mat currently, floating). The margin edges have been cut irregularly, but ...

This is an unframed lithograph print of a female nude in an interior suggested by a door and bed headboard, 23" by 29", signed in pencil illegibly at lower right and numbered there 49/97. I think the work American and have tried various likely signatures such as "Czech" or "Bech" without determining who the artist might be---I am pretty sure that it is a listed artist. The print is unframed and can be easily rolled in a tube for shipping. There are soft handling creases and slightly dog-eared...

A circa 1920's etching of the Woolworth Building in New York City, the print signed in the plate and then pencil signed at lower right margin by American artist F.W.W. HOPPE. The artist did leave behind a number of etchings of New York scenes, but there seems to be a lack of biographical information on him or her. The print is in brown ink on a thin paper. Measurements inside the present mat (no glass) are 9 1/2" by 5 1/4" (14 1/4" by 9 1/2" in thin strip frame). You would want to reframe an...

This is an exceptionally fresh example of the 1969 print "Summer", approximately 18" by 24" (25" by 32" framed) by the famous modern artist ALEXANDER CALDER (1898-1969). The print is protected behind Plexiglas, in a black shiny laminated frame. On the reverse is a certificate of authenticity from the Collectors Guild of New York. My research indicates this print was issued in an edition between 1,000 and 4,000 examples, published by the Societe de Verification de La Nouvelle Gravure, Paris/N...

The print (8 1/2" by 9 3/4" inside the mat, 15" by 20" as framed) is a very detailed etching typical of the meticulous style of the artist, renowned for his prolific printmaking. Popular and rare images by the artist, of New York City scenes, can sell for five figures. He traveled widely in Europe and architecture, especially Gothic architecture, especially revered by the artist, was a favored subject. This print is of a Gothic style building in Princeton, New Jersey. The artist signed the w...

This is an original lithograph by the famous French artist MARC CHAGALL (1887-1985), titled "Le Clown Fleuri" (Clown with Flowers), 1963, from "Lithographes Originales de Marc Chagall", printed by Mourlot. There was a signed (1962) edition with margins, and examples sell between $6,000 and $12,000 at auction (size significantly larger). This appears to be from the unsigned 1963 edition of 2,000 examples, which were of this smaller size. The colors are fresh and the work is in fine condition,...

Original lithograph print, 13 1/2" by 10" inside the innermost of three mats, 21 1/4" by 17 1/2" as framed, the title "Le Ballet: Daphnis et Chloe", printed by Atelier Mourlot, 1969, in an edition of 10,000, as included in Drawings and Watercolors for The Ballet by Jacques Lassaigne, published in 1969 by Tudor Publishing. This is classic Chagall imagery, poetic and dream-like. Note the pipe-playing goat at lower left. All photos were taken through the non-glare glass, which should be discard...

One of an edition of only 50, a scarce to rare lithograph of the year 1912, "The Jungle", signed and titled at lower right margin in pencil by the important American etcher, illustrator, critic, author and teacher JOSEPH PENNELL (1857-1926). The print measures 20" by 23" and the frame is about an inch wide on a side. The artist needs little introduction, as he was one of America's most prolific graphic artists, having produced many, many etchings and lithographs, not to mention watercolors, oils...

An example of a lithograph print after the famous 1924 painting "Dempsey and Firpo" by the highly important American artist GEORGE BELLOWS (1882-1925). The print is apparently not from the artist and printer-signed edition of 103 which brings upwards of $25,000 when offered at auction. This appears to be a later, posthumous example. The image measurements are 17 3/8" by 21 3/8" (sheet 17 3/4" by 21 3/4") and 25 1/2" by 29" framed. Bellows is among the very top tier of historical American art...

A circa 1950 artistic black and white photo of the docks at Monterey, California, pencil signed on the mount as "Edna S Deuren" or similar. The gentlemen standing at left with fedoras and cap are looking down on the small fishing craft at a time when Monterey's fishing industry was in high gear. Measurements are 9 1/4" by 7 1/4" (photo itself) and 20 1/2" by 17" as framed. Condition is very good.

Print, after the original Maurits Cornelius Escher print "The Fall of Man" (1927), signed and numbered in pencil at lower left 25/100, but not by the artist himself; this is a work after the artist, likely a posthumous printing of the 1970's or later. The sheet measures 11 3/8" by 9 1/4" (28.9 cm. by 23.5 cm.), versus the somewhat larger 14 3/4" by 10 7/8" (37.5 cm. by 27.6 cm.) measurements of the authentic print. I contacted the M.C. Escher official website and the detailed response left l...

A clean example of the poster for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, pencil signed at lower right margin by the noted, avant-garde American artist, LYNDA BENGLIS (1941-). A number of artists were invited to create images for the series, and signed examples of these show up from time to time. This example (26" by 38" framed behind Plexi, making for easy shipping) is dedicated "For Harold Huttas". Benglis is a well-known Greek-American contemporary artist. Born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, she...

Etching titled "THE GREEN SHUTTER NEW ORLEANS", signed with initials in the plate and in pencil by the artist in margin, the sheet 9 7/8" by 7 3/4", framed as found in narrow black strip frame of the period. Buell was a noted woman etcher, active from the 1920's through the late 1950's. Born in Illinois, she received some art training at Oberlin College in Ohio, and further study at the Art Students League in New York and with famed etcher Martin Lewis. Buell's work was exhibited at the Art ...

This is a print from the original woodblocks, of the work "Jongleur", 1938, from the series "Le Cirque de l'Etoile Filante (Circus of the Shooting Star) by the important French artist GEORGES ROUAULT (1871-1958). The print is quite small, 2 7/8" by 2 1/8" inside the mat (9 1/2" by 8 1/4" as framed). I believe that this is from the edition published at a later date by the Collectors' Guild of New York, as other examples I have seen are identically framed, and with their label on the reverse. ...

One of a number in my shop inventory, this is a fresh and clean example of one of William Russell Flint's fine color photolithographs issued for collectors over a period of decades. This example, published in 1961 in an edition of 750, is signed in pencil at lower right and bears the characteristic embossed blindstamp in lower left margin. The title is "The Shower". The print measures 17 3/4" by 22 1/2" inside the mat and 26 1/2" by 30 1/2" as framed. The models, artistically placed in a rising ...

TWO antique original (not reproduction) lithograph prints with delicate, subtle hand coloring,by noted English artist and nineteenth century Middle Eastern traveler DAVID ROBERTS (1796-1864). The prints both measures 8 3/4" by 12 1/2" (14 1/2" by 18 1/2" as framed). Roberts is best known for his lithographed images of sites in the classical Middle East, of which these are typical examples. I've not examined these out of the frames but they do appear to be in excellent, clean condition. See the...

Vintage and early Hawaiian art is scarce to rare, and desirable. This is a 1932 etching, "Hawaii Hall", one of the principal buildings of the University of Hawaii at Manoa campus, on Oahu. It is pencil signed at lower right margin. An image of this print is included in the university's yearbook for 1932. The work is presently unframed, behind a mat, and it is simply taped at top edge. Fisher was an art instructor at the university certainly in the 1930's and, from what I can see after onlin...

This is a museum poster or flyer issued by the Long Beach Museum of Art in 1972, advertising an exhibition that year of the paintings of the important and still highly underrated Swiss-California modernist HANS GUSTAV BURKHARDT (1904-1994). The unframed sheet measures 24 1/4" by 18", and bears the complementary signature of the artist in blue ink at lower right just below the black area of the central image. Burkhardt was born in Switzerland and arrived in America in 1924. He attended Cooper Uni...

Wall-ready open edition modern color print from the Ethan Allan Home Collection, after the painting "The Parson's Cat", by the Dutch-born woman artist HENRIETTE RONNER-KNIP (1821-1909). The art measures 8 3/4" by 11 3/4" inside the double mat, and 19" by 21 1/2" as nicely framed. The artist's original oils regularly achieve the mid five figures at auctions, and a number have exceeded six figures. The artist's keen understanding of the cat, and her long experience in observing them is obvious...

Etching (5 5/8" by 7 1/2", 13 1/2" by 15" in pleasing old gold framing), titled on reverse label "Fishermen's Houses Saint Tropez", (French Riviera), pencil signed in the margin by listed California artist REGINALD WILMER VAUGHAN (1870-1958). The etching likely dates to about the 1930's or 1940's, I believe. Vaughan was born in Boston of blue blood stock (relatives were with George Washington at Valley Forge). He came to California in 1890, ranching in San Diego, then moving to Santa Barbara ...

Lithograph, 14 3/4" by 12 1/4" inside the mat, 21" by 18" as simply framed, signed in the plate at lower left "Merlin" and dated nearby 1939, also numbered (I think, also, in the plate, interestingly), 14/34 at lower right. This is a scarce work by the American Scene listed artist MAURICE MERLIN (1909-1947). The artist's short life likely accounts for the lack of recognition of his work. The following information is taken from the askart site: "He was born in Sioux City, Iowa, on September 2...

This is the 1928 (issue date) work "L'Eglise de Limours", dated and signed 1922 in the plate at lower left, after a painting by French School of Paris master artist MAURICE UTRILLO (1883-1955), with the graphic art assistance of also important master artist Jacques Villon. The work, unframed, and measuring 19 1/2" by 11 1/4" presently, is one of the very collectable "Chalcographie du Louvre" impressions. This notation appears at extreme bottom, and the names of Utrillo and Villon also appear ...

King David playing the harp, as a angel holds an open book before him, and another holds a gigantic sword while writing in a book; after Domenichino Engraving 1718-1729 12.2" by 9" trimmed water stain as sen on back. For the same image see The British Museum collection donated in 1919.

Portrait of Abraham Bloemaert. On the background a landscape with buildings and a windmill. 58th plate of the series. Inscription on the bottom: 'ABRAHAMUS BLOEMAERT, / BATAV, PICT. / Pictor naturâ est, usus vix ille magistro: / Arte hic egregiis nec tamen inferior. / Pinxit Aves, Naves, Homines, Herbásque Ferásque, / Et laetos Flores FLORIDUS innumeros'.

This is a PAIR of color aquatints, each 8 1/2 by 12 1/2" inside the framing, 11 3/4" by 15 3/4" as framed, the subjects Notre Dame cathedral and the famous booksellers by the Seine in Paris, and (I believe) the famous column at the Place Vendome, each print numbered at lower left out of editions of 500, and signed at lower right in pencil, by the noted French 20th century impressionist painter CHARLES BLONDIN (1913-1991). Blondin was active in Paris in the post war years, painting and creating v...

Carroll Thayer Berry is a familiar name in artistic circles in the state of Maine, as he was an artist, illustrator and photographer there for many decades. Born in New Gloucester, he grew up in Portland and there became enamored of the sea and seagoing. After study at the University of Michigan (naval architecture) he worked for engineering firms in New York and Portland, then still as a young man worked on murals in administrative buildings in the Panama Canal Zone. After study at the Penns...

This is an example of the rare and desirable Currier print "Woodcock Shooting", 1852, measuring 14 1/2" by 19 1/2" inside the mat, 20 1/4" by 25" as framed. Some of these are offered in fine print shops to $4,000 if in excellent condition. This one at first glance appears to be one of those---the print looks to the unaided eye to be in truly excellent condition---but upon closer examination, one can see that it has suffered major abuse in its lifetime, unusual even by the standards of abuse to...

This is a monotype (generally considered an original work, the artist creating the art on a glass or metal surface which is then pressed against paper to create the final image---usually only one impression is made, so while some consider this a print, others might feel it is unique work). The artist, Pat Berger of Los Angeles (signed in pencil in margin and label on reverse) has been an active member of the art community in Southern California for many years. Born in New York City in 1929, ac...

This attractive and interesting print is a cover of the November 19, 1897 issue of the famous Parisian literary periodical "Gil Blas", which was issued between the years 1879 and 1914. Named after Alain-Rene Lesage's novel, it was a popular read in the late 19th and early 20th century among the fashionable. It serialized famous novels before they appeared as books. This work, titled "Le Vilain Homme", is signed and dated in the plate, by the important Swiss-born artist THEOPHILE-ALEXANDRE ST...

Modern Italian etching, titled at lower left in pencil "Susanna", signed at lower right margin "G. Piccolo", circa mid 20th century. The print measures 9 3/4" by 7 3/4" inside the mat and 16 3/4" by 14 3/4" framed. Subject is the story of Susannah and the Elders, from the Bible's Book of Daniel. This has been interpreted by countless artists over the centuries. Our artist is Giacomo Picollo (1905-1988). Picollo created a number of watercolor landscapes which appear at auction. Condition ...

This is a fine print on a puckery, soft, Japan-like very delicate paper, the image featuring an obviously Orientalist figure and a greyhound-like dog. The print is after the original 1865 painting by the artist, that painting having been offered at Sotheby's auction in 2009. JEAN LEON GEROME (1824-1904) was a major French academic painter and sculptor and educator of legions of artists in the 19th century in France. Today his historical subject and Orientalist works sell into the millions . ...

Etching on delicate Japan paper, 13 3/4" by 10 1/2" inside the mat (20" by 15 1/2" framed) signed in the plate at lower right by the important 19th century French etcher, CHARLES MERYON (1821-1868). There are modern-day notations on the framing paper: "....Casimir Le Comte after Gustave Boulanger, 2nd state, 1856, and "from Kennedy & Co." Meryon was born in Paris to an English physician father and French dancer mother. Early in life he traveled the Pacific's remote regions with the French...

**FOUR** pencil signed, numbered color etchings of Parisian scenes, by the well-known, widely honored and sought after artist, ANDRE HAMBOURG (1909-1999). The matching set of prints, each numbered in Roman numerals V/XX (5 of edition of only 20), measure 12 1/4" by 9 1/4" inside the mat openings, and THREE are framed, one unframed (the framed ones including the frame measuring 18" by 14"). The prints likely date to the 1960's or 1970's. Hambourg was born in Paris. By 1928, exposed to the rich an...

This is an engraving of the year 1821, measuring 13" by 10 1/2" (23" by 20" framed), formerly thought to depict Jeanne d'Aragon but now believed to be Dona Isabel de Requesens y Enriques de Cardon-Anglesona, the image developed by Pierre Bouillon (1776-1831), engraved by Raphael Morghen (1758-1833), after a circa 1500 painting with elements by Raphael Sanzio and Giulio Romano. The lady of means is seen in 3/4 view, her royal garments shown in impressive detail, a view to a loggia beyond, and ca...

Lithograph on paper of a World War I soldier, 12" by 9 1/4" inside the mat (20" by 17" framed), signed and dated in the plate 1915, by the important Swiss-born artist THEOPHILE-ALEXANDRE STEINLEN (1859-1923). Steinlen was born in Lausanne on Lake Geneva in 1859. After training at a textile mill in eastern France, he moved to Paris and the Montmartre literary and art scene. He found the scene creatively nourishing, and went on to spend most of the rest of his life there. Steinlen interacted w...

Etching of a Florida river landscape, titled at lower left margin "Peace on the Anclote", (actually misspelled on the reverse side official label as "Amelote"), and pencil signed at lower right and dated '37 by listed artist WALTER RONALD LOCKE (1883-1949). The Anclote river is just north of the Tarpon Springs area on Florida's Gulf coast. Locke was born near Boston and passed away in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. He is known principally for his graphic art---etchings of Florida and the Nort...

Dramatic linocut print, the sheet 13" by 20", unframed, numbered at lower left 6/12 and pencil signed at lower right and dated there 1971, the "HB" blind stamp adjacent, by the important and still highly underrated Swiss-California modernist HANS GUSTAV BURKHARDT (1904-1994). The subject is somewhat uncertain; perhaps a look at a catalogue raisonne of the artist's graphic works would provide the title, but skulls and other references to death seem to predominate, and the ink is black. At lower l...

Large lithograph on paper, the title "Sur Les Douze Coups de Midi" ("The Twelve Strokes of Midnight"), 21 3/8" by 29 1/2" (30" by 37 1/2" as framed), signed at lower right by the well-known Belgian modern artist PIERRE ALECHINSKY (1927-), and numbered at lower left 3/100. This is a modern image of odd shapes and constructions open to interpretation by the viewer. The artist is a major figure in late 20th century art's CoBra movement. The oil paintings sell for significant amounts of money at maj...

A rarely seen print, featuring the familiar, landmark high bridge over the Arroyo Seco in Pasadena, California, by the well-known California plein air impressionist artist BENJAMIN CHAMBERS BROWN (1865-1942). The lithograph is in rich brown ink on watermarked paper (an "A" with eagle). The sheet measures roughly 13" by 16" (margins irregularly cut, though more than ample) and the printed image 9 3/4" by 13". The print is not pencil signed. It seems to be quite rare, as I have located only on...
