SABY(?) – The Old Clock on the Stairs
Print accompanying the third verse of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s classic poem, circa 1890.
£15.00
Lithographic print produced by Standard & Dixon, Poland St, and issued by C Jefferys, 21 Soho Square, London. The image looks to be signed A Saby bottom left, but it is also carries the notice ‘H C Brandling Esq, Del’t.’
This one one of a few late Victorian images that are known to have been reproduced alongside words from Longfellows poem – “forever never, never forever.” This one is the only example of its type I have seen. Page size 32 x 22 cm (12.5 x 8.5 inches).
Some age darkening, edge creases and one small tear within the image but no loss. Unusual and ideal for framing.
