Offered here is the booklet only. Originally there was a clamshell case containing this descriptive booklet plus reproductions of 40 separate prints, 32 b/w & 8 in color. This is the BOOKLET ONLY: This is the Second Edition of this booklet. Text/essay by James Thrall Soby (then Chairman of the museum's Department of Painting and Sculpture). Stapled softcover wraps (8x11.5”), 15 pgs plus a List of Plates and a Catalog of Plates, ils. …No ISBN (The first edition of 1000 was published by Curt Valentin who had arranged the catalog of prints.) Binding is tight and pages are clean, but with age toning starting. Covers show darkening and wear, especially around the edges, and there are splash stains on the back cover (see first and last pics). The listing pictures of the front and back covers have a greenish cast for some reason. The covers are much closer in color to the yellow of the wraps visible in the second and third pictures. Please see the pictures for more information about this book and the condition of this copy. ► We are thinning contents of our smoke-free, pet-free home. Books will be listed, plus toys including CCG and trading cards, fabric/wallpaper sample books, jigsaw puzzles, jewelry, household items and maybe some of my fishing and workshop stuff.
