1859 Harper's Woodcuts

Posted By: Dave

David is right. papers from the mid 1800's were made with cotton or hemp fibers I think. They don't tend to yellow much with age. Sometime around 1890-1900 Harpers started using a different type of papaer to print on which will turn yellow and decay like todays cheap paper.
