1884 Frederick Cozzens Chromolithograph of Signal Flags from American Yachts

This is a rare and highly sought after chromolithograph by Cozzens, 1884, Scribners, Armstrong Production, New York. Full color representations of 64 different pennants set around a sailing vessel (Yolande). Signals of Yacht Clubs and International Code Flags. Plate XXVI from American Yachts, by Fredrick Cozzens. These are Code Signals, Night Signals and Club Signals. Though this image would look great displayed by any sailing enthusiast, it would be ideal for a Manhattan office, yacht club, or Hamptons or Nantucket home.

Current condition is good, but showing some signs of oxidation and age.
