ITEM DESCRIPTION: Here is an Absolutely Beautiful Antique Mid 19th Century 1856 Steel Bookplate Engraving titled, “Major Dix At The Battle Of Buena Vista.” (Mexican-American War), after the original painting by the famous listed painter & illustrator ‘Henry Warren’ (British, 1794-1879). The title appears printed lower middle in the outer margin area. The artist’s info ‘H. Warren Hon. Mem. Philadelphia Soc. Of Arts.’, appears printed very tiny lower left just under the image and the engraver’s info, ‘J.C. Armytage’ (James Charles Armytage), appears printed lower right respectively. Published by ‘George Virtue, London & New York.’ [George C. Virtue, 1794-1868], from the posthumous book titled, Bartlett’s History of the United States of North America: Discovery of the Western World to the Present Day, by William Henry Bartlett & Bernard Bolingbrock Woodward, George Virtue, London and New York, 1856. This Engraving is printed on a nice medium-weight ivory wove stock and is in VeryGood-Excellent Rare+ condition for its antique age with fine detail, rich tones & crisp blacks—simply beautiful! This Engraving has been in one of our archive drawers amongst other engravings & etchings since it was purchased by the Meibohm family and would be a perfect addition to any U.S. History collection! The size with wide margins is 6-5/8” x 9-3/4”, Image size is 4-5/8” x 6-5/8”. There is some bottom edge wear with a little edge paper-loss from where the Bookplate was stitched & glued into the book and subsequently removed (also missing original glued tissue guard) and a little more glue residue evident along the bottom edge too. Only one extremely tiny 1/4” outer margin edge tear on the right edge upper-right (near corner) which is completely negligible since the outer margins can easily be matted & framed out, and it is repaired from behind with archival tape for protection. Minimal and very slight tiny & faint foxing specks and a few more-pronounced small brown foxing spots here & there on the sheet (none in image area). Slight outer margin edgewear with a few dents & dings and a few small moisture spots here & there along a few edges—also negligible. Other extremely minimal and very slight & small crescent-creases here & there on the sheet, as well as a little more pronounced creasing along the bottom edge from where it attached into the book, and a few small dog-ear creases in a few outer margin corners, with slight rounding too. Normal toning of the stock from age (a little more around the edges)—all outer margin issues are completely negligible since the margins can easily be matted & framed out. This beautiful antique mid 19th Century bookplate engraving has never been framed which is always more desirable to collectors since it has never been exposed to older non-archival materials, matburn or lightfade.
