DOG Border Collie & Rat Terrier in London Hyde Park, Huge 1880s Antique Print

Description

You are bidding on a huge original antique print from an 1880s illustrated journal.
It depicts a Sunday walk in Hyde Park, London, England. Prominent is a beautiful Border collie on a leash. A fox terrier or rat terrier is checking him out. Lovely!
It is very large (double folio size), measuring approximately 22 x 16 inches (56 x 40.5 cm). The picture fills most of the page, with a caption below. The back of the print is blanks, which means it was probably a rare supplement to the journal.
The print has a fold in the middle, where it was folded into the magazine long ago. Note that the fold line is clean and undamaged, because it was "tipped" into the binding. This was a luxury binding technique of that era, because the double page prints were free of binding holes down the center.
The page is in excellent condition for its age. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.
This is GENUINE antique/vintage item. It is not a modern reproduction.
