Baker R-128, a print of Washington’s residence behind glass framed in wood harvested (literally) from the Mount Vernon Estate.  Engraved by H. Billings and printed by the American Bank Note Company.  80.7 millimeters.

An interesting piece of Washingtonia featuring a seated depiction of Liberty supporting a roundel of Washington’s bust with Mount Vernon above, with a certificate of authenticity from Horace Barnes & Co. on the reverse.

This piece is significantly nicer than the example sold in Stack’s-Bowers November 2011 Auction, as that one was missing the glass covering and had some sticker residue on the reverse and still brought $776.  Which makes this one a materially better deal in our admittedly biased view.
