### Item OverviewA beautiful, complete vintage souvenir portfolio containing 12 high-quality lithograph reproduction prints showcasing the iconic Holy Land artwork of famed Scottish painter David Roberts, R.A.This specific set focuses entirely on historic scenes of Jerusalem, based on Roberts' original 1839 monumental sketches and 1840s publications.### Provenance & Historical ContextThis portfolio is a genuine piece of mid-to-late 20th-century Middle Eastern travel history. It was manufactured and distributed in Jordan as a high-end souvenir during the golden era of regional tourism.Dating the Set: The outer folder carries a minimal, vintage distributor stamp reading: "Tel. 625061 - P.O. Box 6624, Amman". Because Amman utilized 6-digit landlines exclusively between the late 1970s and 1995, this safely estimates the production of this collection to circa 1978–1995.Authenticity Markers: Unlike modern, mass-produced digital reprints, these vintage plates feature no modern barcodes, ISBN numbers, or contemporary copyright texts. The minimal packaging was designed to retain a "fine art" feel for high-end gift shops, luxury hotels, or tourism agencies of the era.From the Collection of an affluent traveler who spent time in the 20th ce. traveling the world, including the region on interest for this lot. ### Specifications & Key FeaturesArtist: David Roberts, R.A.
