Wall-map style print, backed with original linen and varnished. Some chipping at edges with loss of the last letter in the names of presidents Van Buren and Harrison. Age-toned, light soiling near bottom. Uncolored lithograph. This is among the earliest work of Klauprech and Menzel, which Peters (America on Stone p. 252) shows as first appearing in 1840. Dating is from the presence of President Harrison, but not Tyler, indicating that this must be from the early months of 1840. The Presidents are presented in an oval pattern, with Washington at the top center and Harrison at the bottom center and the others arranged chronologically in rows from the top down. Peters says this of Klauprech & Menzel: "Extremely good, interesting work; someone should investigate and collect their prints." The imprint at the bottom gives their address as "Third Street, below Vine." This is not an address which is listed for this firm by Peters. Seller Inventory # m00830
