A finer James Corbett signed item cannot exist! Stunning stone litho poster from the 1890's is a treasure by itself. Add a vintage signature and it becomes a one-of-a-kind wonder. Poster by the U.S. Litho Company pictures Gentleman Jim Corbett in full color wearing his tuxedo. Large signature in vintage fountain ink reads "Yours Truly, Jas. J. Corbett." The signature rates a solid 8/10. Poster itself was slightly trimmed at the top and has a 1 inch chip on the lower left side. It measures 16” x 23”. Otherwise, there is mild foxing and it has an excellent appearance. A truly spectacular piece. LOA.
