Description: This is a phenomenal antique print depicts the Army and Navy Hospital in Hot Springs Arkansas. The print is single-sided (blank back) with wonderful tones and hues. It is a photogravure print from a high quality portfolio book published in the1890s. The Army and Navy General Hospital (now the Rehabilitation Center) was also supplied with water from the springs. It is located behind the south end of Bathhouse Row along the base of Hot Springs Mountain. It was administered by the War Department for the benefit of military members, officers of the Public Health Service, and honorably discharged veterans, who suffered from such diseases as the waters of the hot springs had an established reputation in benefiting. However, admission was not extended to mild and transient cases with should yield to ordinary treatment, but were reserved for those of a serious and obstinate character, which, though resisting ordinary methods of relief, were promised a rapid and permanent recovery from the use of the waters of the spring. The facility now known as the Hot Springs Rehabilitation Center was built in 1933 as the second Army-Navy hospital. It has been used by the state for over 40 years. The page is in excellent condition. The paper is thick and holds the colors and details well. The page is approx. 7.75 x 9.75 inches and the actual image size (without margins) is approx. 5.25 x 6.75 inches. The portfolio was originally bound with a ribbon, so there are three holes in the left side margin, that could easily be trimmed. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
