Construction Description
Obverse appears to be a steel engraving. Reverse appears to be a wood engraving. This advertisement apparently was printed with several others arranged vertically on a large sheet, as evidenced by the remnants of a similar design at the top left corner, left because this impression was clumsily cut from the sheet diagonally.
