Seller's description:

This antique printing block (along with others we currently have listed on eBay) comes to you estate-fresh from an old Brooklyn, New York brownstone that we recently liquidated.  Found packed away in the old basement workshop they most likely haven't been touched in several decades if not more.

This one depicts a full "R. Hoe & Co. New York" printing pressed manned by two gentlemen (in reverse as can be expected).  "A 97" and "AEA3" stamped into wood.
Metal on wood construction.  Measures 3-1/2" by 1-13/16" by 7/8".
Overall nice antique condition w/ a century's worth of general wear.

Check out the other blocks we've got listed.  Buy several and save on combined shipping.

Cheers!
