    Description

    Lot of ten William H. Jackson Western Chromolithograph photographs ca 1890-1910. W. H. Jackson agreed to join the firm as a partner and moved to Detroit, Michigan, in 1898. The precise method of printing was only known by those who were working for the Company, and were sworn to secrecy. The photochrom chromolithographs (chromos) were produced from hand-carved stones imported from Bavaria. The exact number of stones is not known, most likely varied.
