  • Antique 1885 Book Print, Cannon Mountain Cliff, White Mtns. Nh

Avis Yuni Antiques & Collectibles

Circa: 1885
Manufacturer: R. Worthington Publishers
Neat original book illustration from 1885 edition of Picturesque Tours in America, the Junior United Tourist Club, edited by the Rev. Edward T. Bromfield, published by R. Worthington, NY. The date does not appear on-page but was present on the book's title page from which this came and we guarantee the age and what this is. The book was not in good shape so the good pages/book prints were removed and are being sold individually. Please see our other listings for the other pages available.

Measures about 7 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches. This page has a picture on one side with book copy/words on the other side. The picture is labelled at the bottom, "Cannon-Mountain Cliff, White Mountains". From the book copy on the reverse side, this is believed to be an image of Cannon Mountain or Profile Mountain as seen from Eagle Cliff Mountain in the White Mountains of New Hampshire (NH). It is a black and white line drawing (not a photograph, no color on page), showing a mountain view with trees. We have provided two images of the book page picture, as best we could show it. Please note that the page is not "brown" as it seems to appear in the close-up picture. Sometimes to get the close-up details to be better visible we had to turn off the camera light (as it created too many white "hot spots" on the page in close-up mode). This permitted seeing close-up details but makes the overall page look falsely brown due to insufficient lighting.

Excellent condition for age. Page has likely darkened over time, with some browning at outer edges. There is an onpage crease in the upper right margin area and perhaps other very minor page wear as expected, but nothing to worry about here. At least one page edge has been trimmed where it was removed from the book.

Relative to shipping, please note: While this is a book page/print, this item CAN NOT be shipped via U.S.P.S. Media Mail per the post office. Please do not select this shipping option because we will have to contact you and change the shipping to something else, increasing your postage cost. The cheapest option for shipping this within the U.S. is via U.S.P.S. First Class Mail Package rate. Also, if you are interested in more than one of these book page prints, please contact us before placing the order. The shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you).
