Following are two beautiful vintage tree illustrations.
The first is an illustration of birch trees in a meadow at the edge of a forest. One tree is prominent in the foreground, with several individual birch trees behind. The caption below the illustration is:
White or Paper Birch.
Campton, Grafton Co., N.H.
The second of the vintage tree illustrations features a country scene with a large chestnut tree at the edge of a narrow dirt road. A wooden fence is on the opposite side of the road. More trees are behind the fence and in the background of the overall scene. The caption below this image is:
Chestnut.
Upper Solburg, Bucks Co., Penn.
I scanned the images from a book titled, “Familiar Trees and their Leaves”, described and illustrated by F. Schuyler Matthews. The book was published in 1903.
New in my Etsy shop this week are six digital stamp/transfer images of leaves (my original scans are from the same book as the vintage tree illustrations above).
Sugar Maple:
White Oak:
American Holly:
