An item from the collection of Mr Andrew Merrilees acquired between the 1950’s and his death in 1979. Mr. Merrilees was a noted collector of early railway and transportation material and was particularly interested in pre-1920 photography. The majority of Mr.Merrilees’ collection was sent to the National Archives circa 1980, his printed material to the National Library and the Ontario Archives. The material in this donation was retained by Andrew Merrilees Ltd., currently owned by Dr. Robert Stewart (Acquisition proposal for AK0114 archival material by D.Monaghan, in Supp. Info.).

Fonction

Used in offset printing to carry the image to be printed, in this case an advertisement? for a carriage maker.

Technique

An example of an engraved stone used as an original in printing. Because transfers could be cheaply made from the original engraved stone, lithography was the preferred process for printing large numbers of a given form or format, for many years. Their use is now generally limited to artists
