Copper Plate of Vignette Die of a Sailor by Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson. Ca. 1850's. A small copper plate of a sailor taking down a flag on the deck of a ship. No imprint on the plate, but certainly a RWHE vignette as shown on the illustrated detail of Hanover Bank of NYC draft. 60mm by 95mm. Superb condition with colorful natural hues. Extremely Fine and this would print wonderfully. Not often encountered.
Ex F.C.C. Boyd Estate, November 11, 1962.
