House, James Cheney, Manchester, CT, 1880, WE Cushing, Archt., Original Plan

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the House for James W Cheney, Esq., South Manchester, Connecticut.   HAND-COLORED.  W E Cushing, Architect(s).  From the American Architect & Building News, July 17, 1880. This picture is extremely hard to find, as the Architect not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 8.5 by 12 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 12 by 16 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped. Plan is in VG+ condition with very light browning and some minor crinkling.
