While walking through Schenley Park this morning, I found a portfolio
of about twenty lithographs scattered along the sidewalk, at the
intersection of Panther Hollow Rd and Greenfield Ave (where the Blvd
of the Allies leaves the park and enters Squirrel Hill).  I also found
a fancy slipcase that contained the pages.

Although the pages are damp and mildewed, and some of the text pages
are severely damaged, all the lithographs are intact and servicable --
perhaps because they are printed on heavy paper of fine quality.

The text is in Spanish.  The lithographs I recovered portray plazas,
cathedrals, and other architectural monuments.  The title page of the
collection reads

		     MONUMENTOS DE MEJICO
	   Tomados del natural y litografiados por
		Pedro Gualdi en al ano de 1841

The owner may reclaim the prints by describing the slipcase.  After
two weeks, I will see if a library or museum might be interested; but
if as I expect there will be no takers, I'll post another notice to
give them away.  I don't want them.
