1890 Mennonite Children's Pictoral Dictionary Engravings 15-16

Description

This very cool double-sided illustrated page is from a 1890 antique English/German illustrated dictionary published for Mennonite and Amish children before the turn of the 20th century. There are 12 steel engraved images printed on each side.
I've been holding on to this collection with the intention of using these nifty 2" x 1 1/2" images to make domino pendants and key-fobs with them, but so far, I haven't yet so I'm offering them here to you for you to do something fun with them.

This print like the others in this series, is in well-loved condition with a lovely soft and even light tanning and the usual spots and finger smudges one find on paper that's 119 years old; in other words it's not new and certainly not perfect.

These fine illustrations come to your doorstep packed flat in a stiff mailer sleeve to protect it from damage on it's trip from my place to yours, delivered by those nice folks at the USPS.
This unique and delightful 7 1/2" x 10 1/4" engraved illustration is the Real Deal... not a scanned photocopy or a download.
