“Purchased as a Christmas gift for my husband, and he loved it. It was exactly what he wanted. The item shipped fast. The seller was able to get my order to me before Christmas, even though I just ordered a week before. It's a beautiful map, quality item. Would buy from this seller again!”

The Story Behind the Print
Cockles — American Marine Conchology, Plate 34
This fine art print reproduces Plate 34 from George W. Tryon's American Marine Conchology, published in 1873. The hand-colored composition depicts Cardium islandicum among the marine mollusks named in the original book. The plate's historical lettering and figure numbers are retained.
Printed to order on archival matte fine art paper. Available in 8 × 12 and 10 × 15 inches. The selected size is the complete artwork. Choose Print Only or a ready-to-hang Slimwood Silver, Slimwood Gold, or Satin Black frame. Framed pieces are supplied without a mat.
Colors may vary slightly with screen settings. Historical species names on the plate are preserved as printed.

“Great looking print. Paper was heavy & thick. The aging - spots, runs, etc added authenticity of it being an old chart. We Found a great frame and had it professionally mounted. Just the right size. Wanted to change the size And they were right on it - excellent product & seller. Thx”
“This is such a beautiful piece! I did not order the frame, I was lucky enough to find one similar the the barnwood frame in this listing and it still looks just as beautiful! Great quality , fast shipping, an all around great piece and great experience! Worth every penny!”
