The Story Behind the Print
George Westinghouse Jr.’s U.S. Patent 124,405, granted March 5, 1872, records George Westinghouse’s steam-powered railway brake device and the piston, valve, and cylinder relationships that made coordinated train braking practical.
Long cylinders, valve sections, and a compact mechanical detail give the sheet the authority of a railway engineering plate. This restored edition preserves the original Patent Office arrangement in crisp black linework on cool, timeworn rag paper within the collection’s restrained black double rule.
Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. A natural piece for offices, libraries, workshops, and collections of invention and industrial design.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.
About the Frame

Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.
The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.
