The original print of the Boston Massacre was engraved by Paul Revere in 1770. Based on that engraving, Alonzo Hartwell's woodcut was produced in 1835 for Boston Berwick Company and was reproduced by a variety of Boston and nearby publishers over the next decade. This print is likely from the American Magazine of Useful and Entertaining Knowledge (1835). A copy of the engraving is attached to the back of the frame with some notations. Some foxing to paper.
