Album measures 6 X 5 inches and is in Very Good Condition with no missing pages and no views with any bends or creases. Covers slightly worn.An album in this condition is very scarce.
Found on the Internet:Photographic views were reproduced by a process using a series of stones laid down with separate shades of oil-based inks ranging from white to light sepia-grey to the darkest sepia-grey or black. The finished image has a varnished look, contributing to the illusion of depth not found in lithographs. The 12-Panel accordion fold-out, was tipped-in to the verso of the front cover.Thank you for looking!
