BALLOONING Vintage coloured bookplate from "Old and New London" showing a "Balloon ascent at Vauxhall Gardens 1849". Approximately 10" x 8", matted (could do with a new mount and frame). Please ignore any 'strange' pattern on the print as for some reason my digital camera is not too happy to photograph old prints... the actual print is nice and clear. |
