The two contributors have "del." and "inc." after their name. What do those stand for?

Hi @calculatedFlame, "del" is an abbreviation of the Latin delineavit - ‘he/she drew [it] - and is used to indicate a particular artist on whose original drawing the print is based.
"inc" is an abbreviation of incidit or incidebat - engraved by.
There's a useful glossary here.
Thanks for asking!
