Description: 1855 Original Litho., US Pacific Railroad Survey, "VIEW SHOWING THE FORMATION OF THE CAON OF GRAND RIVER". F. W. Egloffstein, VG. This original lithograph is in very good condition, showing very few marks. The top left corner of the front reads, "U.S.P.R.R. EX & SURVEYS 36th & 39th PARALLELS." The bottom left cornet reads, "J.W. Stanley from Sketch by. F.W. Egloffstein." The bottom right corner reads, "Lith. of SARONY, MAJOR & KNAPP N.Y." The center bottom reads, "VIEW SHOWING THE FORMATION OF THE CAON OF GRAND RIVER. near the Mouth of Lake fork with indications of the formidable Side Canos." The largest blemish is a 1 cm tear along the upper border at the center right of the print. The tear is pictured clearly in the last two photos. I like to keep things as original as possible, so I have not taped the tear. There is one small blemish near the bottom left corner, pictured. There are two small strips of mounting tape on the reverse, top edge at the corners. The words "litho 1855" are written in the top right corner of the reverse. The print was originally in a frame, but the glass was broken. I have saved the white matting from the framing. If you would like it, just let me know, and I will include it. The lithograph is slightly unevenly cut. The height at the bottom left corner is 8 1/2". Whereas, the height at the bottom right corner is only 8 1/4". So, there is a slight angle to the print. Measuring from the bottom left corner, item measures 8 1/2" H x 10 5/8" W. Overall, it's a beautiful, crisp lithograph in remarkably good condition for its age. Item will be shipped carefully packaged with signature required for delivery. Please ask if you have any questions! Thanks for looking!
