Intensively Engraved Antique Printer's Plate early 19th century watercolor Nice and fat and plush

Nice and fat and plush

and stands super stable and sturdy on the table

and the wood is in excellent shape

15" tall x 7" across at widest

but seeing all of those layers of teeth make me feel like surely it a ferocious one

Intensively Engraved Antique Printer's Plate early 19th century watercolor Nice and fat and plushI just love the surface of this old printer's plate, with the names of Sam Scott and John Oaks consuming much of it, but various smaller letters and marks filling every centimeter between and around them, and many more on the back side, too. I find the whole thing super satisfying, and the detailing on the letters spelling out Sam Scott especially fantastic. 8 1 2 x 4 3 16 and in very good condition, found in Adams County, PA
