1851 Print: "GEORGE WASHINGTON", Drawn by N. Fullerton, Engraved by G.G. Smith, Massachusetts, Choice Extremely Fine. This beautiful engraving measuring 6" x 5", has large margins to create the overall size of 10.75" x 9.5". Showing a most distinguished President Washington's bust, facing left, is dressed in his finest military uniform, with his normal pensive look. An oval border surrounds him, with a shaded background giving contrast tot he darkly shaded Washington. Under the print is a facsimile signature of the President; "G.Washington", with the long title "...as he appeared while reviewing the Continental Army on Boston Common... 1776". Age-toned with minor foxing; not affecting overall condition. An amazing duo of both his engraving along with his signature make this a print that deserves to be put up on display.
