Engraved copper plate for a Danish tobacco label from the beginning of the 19th century. Ca 16 x 14 cm. + 2 later impressions from the plate, printed on high quality paper. A few minor scratches to the plate. Two holes drilled in upper corners outside the engraved area. In very good condition.
A nice engraved copper plate for a Danish tobacco label with the initials ”I B” at top, a priest in the center, flanked by two Indians smoking pipes, standing on tobacco barrels, and the text: ”Liverpool no. A. / Fabriqueret af Johannes C Bech paa Vestergade no. 55 i Kiobenhavn”. Johannes C. Beck (1779-dead after 1840) was a tobacco manufacturer on Vestergade 55 in Copenhagen. The figures on this engraving are clearly old-fashioned in style and based on older models.
