A collection of signed original etchings by various artists, mostly late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century. Various sizes, ranging from ca. 8" x 5" (205 x 112 mm) to 20" x 14 1/2" (510 x 365 mm); condition varies: some with browning, occasional small stains or spots of soiling, wear and short tears to the edges, but generally good or better; 33 total.

Those etchings with identifiable signatures and/or attributions include:

Lauder[?]); Shelly's Cottage, Lynmouth; Roslyn Chapel; St. Bartholomew's Gate, London; Roma — Dal Pincio; a large somber image of a man in black with black birds overhead; plus others, 33 in total.
