  • "Smelting Ore in Colorado."

    A great stage by stage portrayal of the smelting process as it was in the Wild West. This woodcut by Frenzeny and Tavernier is a large double page image which gives us a first hand glimpse of the task of translating ore into bricks of precious metal.

    Condition is good with some supportive repairs to the center fold. Image size with entire text is 14.5 x 20.5 (inches)
