This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small buying circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved as this has been. It measures approximately 12 by 8 inches and has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture). The whole picture measures 16 by 12 inches (with border). Finely detailed and beautifully hand colored with watercolor. VG+ condition. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL PICTURE PRINTED AND PUBLISHED ON THE DATE ABOVE--NOT A COPY OR REPRINT. Shrink wrapped.
