    Description

    A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Pumping Station for the Brooklyn Water Works, Clear Stream, Long Island, New York.
    HAND COLORED
    A D F Hamlin, Architect(s).
    From the American Architect and Building News, May 1, 1886.
    This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures approximately 8 inches by 12 inches and has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 12 by 16 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.
