    🎨 FOUR FREDERIC REMINGTON PRINTS
    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

    🫎 FULL PAGE β€” FREDERIC REMINGTON: "MOOSE HUNTING β€” AN UNEXPECTED SHOT"
    A full-page Remington moose hunting illustration β€” capturing the drama of a moose hunt at its most unexpected and exciting moment. Remington was the supreme American sporting illustrator of the Gilded Age, and his hunting scenes β€” combining authentic outdoorsman knowledge with his characteristic action and drama β€” are among the most actively collected of his Harper's Weekly output. An original Remington print in a complete original issue.

    🦌 FULL PAGE β€” FREDERIC REMINGTON: "STALKING ANTELOPE"
    A full-page Remington western hunting scene of antelope stalking β€” capturing the vast open spaces of the American West and the skill required to approach pronghorn antelope, one of the fastest animals in North America, across the open plains. A vivid and very displayable piece of Remington's Western sporting art.

    πŸ¦† REMINGTON PRINT β€” DUCK HUNTING
    A Remington duck hunting illustration β€” adding a third sporting subject to this remarkable multi-Remington issue, capturing the waterfowl hunting culture of the marshes and wetlands that Remington documented throughout his career alongside his Western and military subjects.

    🎣 ONE-THIRD PAGE β€” "AN ANXIOUS MOMENT" β€” FISHING PRINT
    A one-third page fishing illustration β€” "An Anxious Moment," capturing the tension of a fish on the line. A fourth sporting print completing this exceptional sporting issue.

    🐾 HALF PAGE β€” "AFTER THE HUNT"
    A half-page hunting aftermath scene β€” the warm and satisfied moment after a successful hunt, completing the day's sporting narrative.

    Together these four Remington sporting prints β€” moose, antelope, duck, and fishing β€” form one of the most comprehensive single-issue Remington sporting collections in the Harper's Weekly run. Remington prints from Harper's Weekly are actively sought by collectors, dealers, and institutions worldwide; the complete issue containing four is a premium collector's document.

    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
    πŸŒ‰ THE EAST RIVER BRIDGE β€” BROOKLYN
    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

    πŸŒ‰ FULL PAGE β€” "THE EAST RIVER BRIDGE BETWEEN NEW YORK CITY AND BROOKLYN AS IT WILL APPEAR WHEN COMPLETED"
    A full-page illustration of a proposed East River bridge β€” the Brooklyn Bridge had already been completed in 1883, so this illustration likely depicts one of the additional spans proposed to connect Manhattan and Brooklyn as the boroughs prepared for consolidation into Greater New York in 1898. A significant piece of New York City infrastructure and architectural history at the moment of the city's great consolidation.
