These prints are highly decorative chromolithographs of apples and pears, in the manner of Duhamel de Monceau & quite beautifully displayed on the page. The prints are in excellent condition, with the paper a soft white and no foxing at all. Each print is accompanied by descriptive German text. Please review the photos carefully as they are very accurate. All our prints are original antique prints guaranteed to be the age stated & always over 100 years old. These old prints are a valuable record of the many wonderful fruit varieties that have disappeared in the past century. Just imagine that there were once about 10,000 varieties of apples alone in the US & now 15 varieties only account for more than 95% of US production!
