MA and knew it had to come home with me

but it is in overall very good condition

so I removed the print from the backing it was attached to (cutting carefully through old masking tape to do so) and have put it in a simple black frame with white matte

with missing arm as noted:) One's hand fits easily inside the puppet

one presses down and turns the lid

Sun Spots, from Austrian Journal of Popular Astronomy, 1876 Color Lithograph primitive chair MA and knew it hadThis striking image of sun spots as they appeared on November 3, 1868, comes from a volume of Zeitschrift fr populre Astronomi (Journal of Popular Astronomy), published by Lith Anst, Graz (Austria), c. 1876. The image itself was created by Ernest Matthey Guenet, who I have found mentions of but not much of anything about. The yellow is slightly more saturated than appears in photos; just lovely and the perfect way to get to stare directly at the sun!
