4. Brown, Phyllis Y. "George Caleb Bingham." Vol. 2, no. 1 (Apr. 1977), 7-9.
In this article, Brown focuses on the paintings by Bingham (1811-1879) that were reproduced as prints. She points out that Bingham credited the reproductions published by the American Art Union with enhancing his reputation. A list of those prints as well as several published by Goupil & Co. and three others is appended to the article.
5. Manning, Kathleen. "Winslow Homer's Wood Engravings." Vol. 2, no. 1 (Apr. 1977), 11-12.
This brief article discusses the medium of wood engraving focusing on the reproductions of Homer's designs published in Ballou’s Pictorial and Harper's Weekly. She mentions the use of metal casts from the wood engraved blocks required by the large editions of these magazines. Some information is specifically directed at collectors of wood engravings.
6. Philbrook, Douglas A. "Louis Prang and the White Mountain School of Art." Vol. 2, no. 1 (Apr. 1977), 9-10.
One of the foremost collectors of White Mountain material is Douglas Philbrook. He lists here about two dozen reproductions of paintings of White Mountain scenery and several sets of album cards published by Louis Prang's firm in Boston.
7. Baragwanath, Albert K. "Harry T. Peters: A Collector's Collector." Vol. 2, no. 2 (Nov. 1977), 4-5, 11.
Peters (1881-1948), the donor of the Currier & Ives collection at the Museum of the City of New York, was one of the great collectors of American lithographs in the twentieth century. This biographical sketch, written by the print curator at the Museum, describes Peters' various interests that brought him to collecting prints. Peters, of course, was also the author of many books on American prints, including the indispensable America on Stone.
8. Golden, Jack. "Posters Past and Present." Vol. 2, no. 2 (Nov. 1977), 6-8.
Citing the popularity of posters of the 1890s, Golden looks at some of the precursors--lithographed advertisements for consumer products as diverse as beer and insurance. He provides a brief synopsis of the development of chromolithography and its application to this most commercial of uses. The illustrations, all drawn from his private collection, provide an excellent survey of styles and techniques.
