Like what you see? Click on my store to search by keyword or browse over 200 categories! You are bidding on a huge original antique from an 1880s illustrated journal. It depicts a dramatic scene. Six firemen ride on the fire engines, as two bold horses pull it through the streets at a gallop at night. People and other horses scamper out of the way. This is one of the most beautiful historical firefighting items I have sold to date!It is very large (double folio size), measuring approximately 21.5 x 15.75 inches (54.5 x 40 cm). The picture fills most of the page, with a caption below. The back of this print has text/photos on the back.The print has a fold in the middle, where it was folded into the magazine long ago. Note that the fold line is clean and undamaged, because it was "tipped" into the binding. This was a luxury binding technique of that era, because the double page prints were free of binding holes down the center.PLEASE NOTE there is a 1/2-inch split in the fold line at the bottom of the print. This tears do NOT reach the picture area. See scan for an accurate view of the condition. This is GENUINE antique/vintage item. It is not a modern reproduction. I will combine shipping on multiple purchases (charging only the single highest shipping cost). I ship same or next business day.All prints are well packed and delivered in an archival sleeve with delivery confirmation.I stand behind my products and offer a full refund if the product does not match the description in any way.Please note that postal service from my zip code is incredibly slow. The arrival dates promised by ebay are unrealistic in most situations. Even though I ship the same day or next day after payment, your package will likely take at least 5 full business days to arrive. If you need it faster, please inquire about express mail options prior to bidding. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
