Later print from the original copper-plate impression of an engraving originally made by Paul Revere circa 1762, featuring an image area of 7.75 x 5.75 on an off-white 10 x 9.5 sheet. This form was designed to be executed for the British troops for persons to be enlisted as a Montross (a soldier next in rank below the artillery gunner) for His Majesty's North Battery at Boston. The detailed image shows the buildings and fortifications of the North Battery, with Boston's North End in the background. Only one original fully executed used form is known to exist, being part of the American Antiquarian Society's collection; the engraved copper plate itself is in the collection of the Massachusetts Historical Society. In fine condition.
