This is an antique lithograph of Gray & Gifford’s View of San Francisco, 1868. It is a bird’s eye pictorial map. We believe the litho dates to approximately the same year the map was published. There is a provenance statement on the reverse, from someone who worked in the building where this piece was originally hung. The business was established in 1868, and the statement says the piece hung in the lobby from pretty much the day the building opened. The antique map comes with a separately framed key, which we believe to be a more modern print, bought to accompany the older map. The frame for the map measures 38″ x 29.5″, with the map itself measuring approximately 28″ x 20″. The frame for the key measures 19.5″ x 15.5″, with the key itself measuring 13.25″ x 9.75″. The antique lithograph is in good pre-owned condition, with some fading and yellowing, as consistent with age. There is a small tear in the sky area of the image, which we have done our best to capture in photos. The tear is “u” shaped, and there is no missing material. It is difficult to see, except on close inspection. The map is matted and framed behind glass. The wooden frame has a few dings and scratches. The separately framed key to the map is a more modern print, bought at a later time to accompany the older lithograph. It is also in good condition, with a few imperfections to the frame. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this item benefit McMinnville Area Habitat for Humanity, in McMinnville, Oregon, USA.
