(CO. - Denver) Colorado Sketches - Forest On Fire - The City of Denver, Harper's Weekly, 1879 A great set of woodblock engravings that well illustrate the extremes of life in the young state of Colorado. At top is a raging forest fire, with a miner fleeing down a creek to safety with his donkey, and at bottom is a distant view of Denver, probably from someplace in north Highlands. Nicely hand colored and in good condition. Image size is approximately 14.5 x 9.25
