Philadelphia: The Print Club of Philadelphia. Good. 1930. First Edition. Softcover. [moderately worn, slight loss of paper spine covering at both ends of spine, a bit of soiling to covers, general wear at edges and corners]. (37 full-page B&W facsimiles) Catalogue of an exhibition/sale held at The Print Club of Philadelphia from November 10 to 27, 1930. The artists whose works were featured include Marc Chagall, Raoul Dufy, Juan Gris, Marie Laurencin, Amadeo Modigliani, Jules Pascin, Pablo Picasso, and Jacques Villon. Includes a price list, laid in, of the thirty items in the exhibition that were for sale; oddly, although there were more pieces by Henri Matisse on the for-sale list than any other artist (six, ranging in price from $150 to $1500), none are among the items pictured in the catalogue. (Each of the artists noted above is represented by at least one reproduced drawing.) Issued in a limited edition of 1500. .
