These just arrived yesterday and they are so knock-you-out gorgeous I just had to share the view.  Not all proofs have brilliant color like this, but when they do I find them nearly irresistible. I have long wanted a set of the 1861 issue this way, but since I don't actively collect the issue, I held back. These came along at less than catalog, and the waiting time was over. |

I've been looking at the dull blue 219's, all day, hang on a sec...  ... there ... now I can handle these 'colors that pop' right off the page. Congrats on getting that nice addition you've wanted, and such very striking images, at that. Thanks for sharing. |

Wow now you have me slobbering all over my poor keyboard! I sold off most of mine awhile back but I think I'll start up again but with large die sunk proofs or maybe card & india ones like you show above. I also really enjoy the BEP's (and others) example sheets of their intricate line work and rose engine stuff..time will tell. Thank you for the giant smile this morning! Your Friend -Jeff |
