This etching by William Savage, created before 1868, is a small-scale illustration for the book "The History of the Hospital of St. Cross" (1868). The illustration depicts an advertisement for "The Depot of City Memorials" in Winchester, England. While the etching is small in size, it captures the details of the storefront and its offerings, including a display of ceramics and a sign touting the shop as the "Depot of City Memorials," making it a valuable historical record of Winchester's commercial life in the mid-19th century.
