ORIGINAL
JOHN B. BACHELDER (1825-1894), AFTER, ENCAMPMENT OF THE 2ND DIV OF M V M ON WINTER ISLAND SALEM HARBOR HANDCOLORED LITHOGRAPH PUBLISHED BY ENDICOTT & CO LITHOGRAPHERS NEW YORK
This is just a great original piece. I have had this print one other time in the past.  It used to come to market more often than it has in the past couple of years.  I think the works have gone into collections and stayed there and as time goes on, there are less and less of them that are in surviving condition.  This one is actually in quite good condition.  Image measures 17 x 29 1/2 on complete original sheet measuring 22 3/4 x 33 1/2 inches.  Based on the paper rippling it is not laid down.  Original hand coloring is really excellent with the red highlights of some of the uniforms still very strong.  The sky still shows wonderful blue and white contrast.  Really the only issue is the consistent toning of the sheet that is most evident in the margins.  There is some inconsistent toning to the left margin as well but again nothing too bad.  Really a very good example of this scarce print.  Print is in an early 20th Century wood frame that is complimentary and ready to hang.  On the back dustpaper there is also the original Godspeed's label.  Frame measures 24 1/2 x 35 1/4 inches.
CHECK THE PICTURES ON THIS GREAT PIECE.  DONT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY.
