1858 'Mollusca', 98 Engravings For Your Art

Description

From 1858 Scotland, an engraved page titled & featuring 'Mollusca', over 95 wonderfully detailed engravings. The artwork is credited to Capt. Brown & the engraving to R. Scott.

The paper is heavy, with a gentle all-over tanning to betray its past 150+ years & with foxing at the edges. The page measures 9.75" x 6" (25 x 15 cm), the corners are sharp & there are no tears, folds, creases or marks.

This will be a very cool study for framing or use in your art ~ your vintage-inspired card & scrap-book page making, jewelry, collage, decoupage.

*You are purchasing an original paper from 1858 & it does not have a watermark. The protective marks appear only on these computer images*
