Mount Vernon Prints

I bought these three framed prints at auction last year (and forgot about them). The shape of the frame was most interesting to me. Now plowing though the unfinished projects, so I pulled them out to evaluate restoration requirements. Most significant issues are the top crests on two, and a split to one. They have never been regilded, so will try to maintain their integrity of surface.

Somewhere I recall reading that these were sold by the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association to raise funds for the preservation of our first president's home.

Here are east and west views, as well as Washington's tomb. I wonder if there were more in the series.
