On offer is a full page from the Jan 29th 1870 issue of "The Graphic" depicting a group of prize birds at the Poultry Show CRYSTAL PALACE. The wood engraving is by the much celebrated artist and engraver Harrison Weir. This item is now over 150 years old and is in remarkable condition. Some natural "toning" has occurred to the paper which is normal and does give this item a charming feel of antiquity.
