[QUOTE="blooey, post: 928690, member: 12007"]I going out on a limb here, but the prints look original to me. Look at the titles, if the lines of the letters are VERY finely engraved (sharp) then more than likely they are original engravings. Later editions often use block letters for the titles ....of course photographic repros would also feature the original cursive "copperplate" script titles, but they would not be well defined or "sharp".[/QUOTE]
