G.H Thomas, E. Walker lithograph ?!?!

Hi, I’ve acquired this print and wondered if anyone could tell me anything about it?!

It’s ‘parade of the Scots Fusileer Guards at Buckingham palace’

(Before her majesty the queens &his royal highness the prince)

On the morning of their departure for the seat of war March 2nd 1854.

Small print states, day & son lithe to the queen.

Published June 21st 1854 by Paul and Dominic coinaghi & co 13 & 14 pall mall east publishers to her majesty.

It’s ptinted on a type of parchment paper that’s got a type of card between the layers??

The only thing I’ve found similar is on the national army museum website

Any info would be greatly received

Many thanks

 

Welcome, Tillylily1. I think we're going to need to see this.

 

I’ve tried to post a pic but it keeps saying file too large, will keep trying although it looks like the one in the comment below

 

Hi yes it does look very similar although I struggled to find any more info?!

Cheers

 

Great thanks I managed it

 

Thanks, it actually isn’t that faded in reality just think my cameras not great!

Hopefully someone can give me some info

Cheers

 

That’s great thank you, I wonder how many were made at the time? Would love to know more about it. Love things like this

Thank you

 

If you want info on the company, there's lots of leads here:

There might be something in there somewhere about what was printed when and how much.

There's a good chance your print is original to 1854, but it's impossible to tell from the photos. It might be mounted on card. I don't think that's how it would have been sold originally (really don't know).

I can't comment on the condition, except to say that poor condition would severely limit the value.

You'll get most of the information you need from the print itself, and from that entry in the National Army Museum.
