    These are really neat old antiques. The first pair of copper engraved printers blocks is of a Sioux Village. The second one is entitled the massacre and appears to be the Battle of Little Bighorn. Note these woodblock prints would date to when the Battle of Little Bighorn occurred. The third one appears to be clearly Custer at the Battle of Little Bighorn. The last one is Cowboys bucking on Broncos. I would date these blocks by some names I have found on them to around 1880's.

      Thank you so much Inky, I too wish you and yours a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.....Thank you for the loves on this one everyone and Valentino, no, haven't done any printed images. Think that would be fun to do...I have some glass negatives from the early 1900's and I have developed those...think I will put that up next, the glass plate and the print...
