Currier and Ives

Currier and Ives, saepe Currier & Ives scriptum, fuit prospera fabricae notarum impressarum societas commercialis Americana a Nathaniele Currier (1813–1888) et Iacobo Merritt Ives (1824–1895) ducta. Quae, Novi Eboraci in urbe notas impressas ab anno 1834 ad annum 1907 edebat ut lithographemata nigra et alba manu colorata, ex picturis ab artificibus perbonis facta. Notae impressae lithographicae rapide propagari et viliter emi poterant, ac societas se appellabat "Grande Notarum Impressarum Vilium et Popularium Emporium Medium,"^[1] eiusque lithographemata "caelata pro populo colorata" proscribebat.^[2][3]
