Thank you and enjoy! Comments: This printing plate / block was purchased as part of a large lot of similar pieces that likely came from either a commercial printer, newspaper or a private collection prior to my owning it. Original geographic origin is unknown unless the plate is marked with a city but many of the blocks in the lot were for businesses located in St. Louis Missouri. Printing blocks are not my specialty so I am unsure of the metals used nor do I feel qualified to comment on the condition as it relates to how well the plate will print and what the final imprint will look like.
