Long Range "Sharps" Shooter

Back in the 1870s, target shooting at ranges up to 1,000 yards was a popular sport. Depicted here is a shooter of that era taking aim at a distant target in what was known as a "back rest" position. He is firing a high-quality long range Sharps target rifle, one of the premier target rifles of that day.

Edition of 100, heavy weight archival paper, 12"x16": $45.00
