This group of 1850s hand-tinted
views came together and are in substantially better condition than most.
Not only that, many are much higher quality than general. Not being a charity,
I have scratched my head wondering how to factor in a small profit on these
and so have had to up prices a little. The alternative is not to have any
fresh views as they do not, unfortunately, grow on trees, have largely
disappeared off the open market, and what does appear is fiercely fought
over.

The rest of the views came
with this group but are tissues. Probably the best I have seen. All are
absolutely superbly tinted and the images really get nowhere near showing
them as they are. Sorry about the prices but the buyer of these will be
knocked out by them.
