I'm having trouble with anyone responding to any of my classifieds, and then I end up after a month or so, deleting the ad and redoing it.
Is this in the wrong catagory? Any help is greatly appreciated!
ON TO ITEM INFO:
I was given this by an elderly woman who had been collecting (and had tons of) antiques for most of her adult life.
I took the fabric picture out of the frame and found 3 different areas of markings.
1) Says "Parasol girl"
2) Copyright 1803? Or 1808? I cannot make out the year.... It looks more like 1803 the more I look but I don't know...
then goes on to say "by CAMPBELL METZGER AND JACOBSON"
3) I took the best picture I had of this last "marking" on the back. I have no idea what it says, cannot read it.
This item is beautiful, and in what I thought was excellent shape until I saw the back (see pic) and it looks stained from something. The stain does not show on the front at all, I wonder how it even got in there.
Thank you so much, any information is greatly appreciated!

Re: Vintage Lithograph 18th Century Campbell Metzger Jacobson
Hi,
You probably already know that Campbell, Metzger, and Jacobson were commercial printers from the late 19th and early 20th Century that did a variety of posters, prints and lithographs for decor and advertising purposes.
I am having problems with the link feature on this site, so I hope this link works. A similar question with additional info as well as a worth estimate can be found here:

If it doesn't work, just google Campbell Metger Jacobson and it should come up at the top (JustAnswer) site.
