- Curator's comments
- Prior to being printed with Higham's image, this sheet of paper was dry- or blind-printed with an engraved title-page for 'Marshall's Commercial Pocket Book', presumably to remove any remaining ink from that plate. The sheet was then cut when it was used for Higham's print, leaving what remains.
