enclosed are four outstanding expamples of American lithography...the Currier & Ives "American Homestead" Four Seasons Series.  the Currier & Ives firm, acclaimed as the most famous Lithographers in America, was founded in 1834.  Noted for their fine lithographs of historical documentation of the second half of the nineteenth century, they are as popular today, over 145 years later, as they were then. 

The four lithographs in the "American Homestead" series were originally printed between 1866 and 1870 and entered according to the Act of Congress, by Currier and Ives, in the clerk's office of the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York.  Each of the prints portrays the tranquility and historical excitement of Currier and Ives' world-renouwned art as well as capturing the romance and nostalgia of rural American Life in the 19th century.
