Item description from seller

Bifolium, so 4 pages. Engraved image [3-3/4" x 6-1/4"] of the Seminary at top of p. 1. Drawn by G. N. Todd, executed by E. Hurd. 10-1/4" x 7-11/16" Auburn Theological Seminary was established in Auburn, New York, by action of the Presbyterian Synod of Geneva on 16 August 1818. It obtained a charter from the New York State legislature on 14 April 1820 as a post-baccalaureate theological seminary, and it matriculated its first students in 1821. From its inception, the seminary drew support from beyond the Presbyterian Church. Its charter stipulated that "no student of any Christian denomination shall be excluded," and the first class of eleven students represented eight denominations. The Roman Catholic bishop from Boston, Bishop Chevereux, donated books for the school's library." [Wiki] Todd, the artist, an 1842 grad of the institution. Unused, though age-toned, a bit of spotting & light extremity wear. Very Good. Now housed in an archival mylar sleeve.
