    A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Competitive Drawing for the Proposed American Fine Arts Society, West 57th Street, New York, NY
    .
    HAND COLORED ORIGINAL
    Edmund B Welles, Architect(s).  From the American Architect and Building
    News, June 6, 1891.
    This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures approximately 12 by 8 inches and has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 16 by 12 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.
