Presenting a vintage or antique printing block of the HMS Boxer's capture by the USS Enterpise in the War of 1812. Copper engraving securely fastened to wood backing. Wood and metal in great condition. Illustration is finely incised. It is difficult to interpret to the extensive script text without putting it through the printing press. I have only been bale to identify the names or the ship and the date: September 5th, 1813. Likewise, I am unable to find any prints or depictions of the event online that match the illustration. 8-1/4" long x 6-1/16 wide x 15/16 thick
