1881 E.G. Rideout Lithograph  The Little Surgeon
Featured in this lot is this original 1881 E.G. Rideout lithograph titled, "The Little Surgeon", printed by Cadwell Lithography and copy-righted by E.G. Rideout in 1881 in New York. The litho shows a mother and her child sitting in a large Victorian style room. The woman is wearing an all black dress and cross necklace as she sits on a chair while her child "tends" to her finger as if the child was a "Little Surgeon". The lithograph is printed on woven linen paper. The bottom left hand corner of the litho reads, "Copyright 1881 by E.G. Rideout N.Y.", while the bottom center shows the title reading, "The Little Surgeon". The bottom right hand corner reads, "Cadwell Litho. N.Y.". The lithograph shows good condition for its antique age with slight bending to one corner and fading to the coloring but shows no signs of obvious damage. The litho measures 21" L x 13 15/16" W.
