Excerpt from Catalogue of the Engraved Portraits of Washington The method of measurement used here must be specially noted. Heigbt, as here given, means from the top of the uppermost en graved surface, including border if any, to the bottom of the lowest line of lettering. Sub beigbt, or oval bezlgbt, is the en graved surface of print without border and without lettering, the width of border in each case being given in the description of the print. Widt/z, oval widt/t or diameter is the engraved sur face, without border. The only variations from the universality of these rules will be fully understood, when they occur, from the language used, as in numbers 828 and 829.

Download and read online ebook Collection of Engraved Portraits of Washington write by James T. Mitchell. This book was released on 2017-11-23. Collection of Engraved Portraits of Washington available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Excerpt from Collection of Engraved Portraits of Washington: Belonging to Hon. James T. Mitchell This catalogue embraces the first portion of the collection of engraved portraits of Gen. George Washington gathered by the Hon. Jas. T. Mitchell, Chief Justice of Pennsylvania, and includes only the portraits described by, or such as would have been described by, the late Mr. Wm. S. Baker in his work on the Engraved Portraits of Washington. When I say would have been, I mean that many in this collection are so rare that Mr. Baker had not the good fortune, in his researches, to come across them, otherwise they would have been included in his book. After mature consideration, I decided to fall back and build on the old foundation, that is, to describe the portraits by the excellent rule laid down by Mr. Baker in his admirable work, which is best understood by col lectors, being aware that those who are possessed of the exclusive Grolier Club book can readily identify the portraits mentioned in that book by the Baker numbers herein given. It will be well to state, whilst mentioning the Grolier Club book, that that publication owes much of its excellence and completeness to the courtesy of Justice Mitchell in allowing Mr. Hart the use of his collection in compiling the same, as many of the rarer items men tioned in it are the only impressions known, and are in this collection. In describing the portraits, we have tried to follow the various forms of letters used in the titles of the prints, which will explain the lack of uniformity in lettering of the titles in this catalogue.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact.
