Lehnert & Landrock Art Publishers Cardboard Backing

This item appears to be the cardboard backing or a plain cover sheet for a piece of artwork or publication, distinguished by a circular black ink stamp in the lower left quadrant. The material is a light-colored, possibly white or off-white, matte cardboard or heavy paper stock. Its texture seems relatively smooth but shows minor surface irregularities and a few small, faint brown-orange specks which could be age-related foxing, dirt, or minor stains. The edges of the sheet appear to be slightly worn, particularly in the upper right corner where there is a subtle creasing or dog-ear evident. The most prominent feature is the circular manufacturer's or publisher's mark. This mark features text arranged in a circle, reading 'LEHNERT & LANDROCK' at the top and 'ART PUBLISHERS CAIRO' at the bottom, with an emblem or small drawing in the center, though the details of the central image are not clearly discernible from the provided image quality. The overall condition suggests some age and handling, consistent with a vintage item. The primary observation is the publisher's mark, indicating its origin from Lehnert & Landrock, a renowned art publishing house known for its photographic works, particularly from Egypt and the Middle East, suggesting an estimated age from the early to mid-20th century. The quality of the cardboard itself is utilitarian, intended for protection or as a simple mount, rather than an object of fine craftsmanship.
