Currier and Ives 19th century prints

The Currier and Ives lithograph group offered reasonably priced, colorful prints for sale. The factory was in business from 1834 until almost the turn of the century and many of the prints offer glimpses into life in the United States at that time.

These prints are based on views of New York City, which is where the factory was based.
