More information about the sheets-collages mentioned on the previous page. This is how the auction catalogue explained it: The compositions are collages made some time prior to 1899 in the bank note company's art school for apprentices. Proofs were cut to shape and mounted along with decorative vignettes and borders of lathework designs.
Thirty-one gilt-edged pages of these compositions were preserved in two leather bindings, with Volume-I entitled "Postage Stamps", and Volume-II entitled "Revenue Stamps". Both books have "American Bank Note Company, New York 1899" stamped on the spine in gold.These are the collage-sheets of United States. I only have black and white images (The Essay-Proof Journal):    |
