Stone Sculpture from Mexico [2 booklets]

New York: The Museum of Primitive Art, 1959. Paperback. Both clean and tight inside, but the larger volume has some cover soiling and a bit of general shelf wear. No tears or chips.. Book I: White wraps with grey illus. and black lettering; [32] pp. with bw illus. throughout.; Book II: Pamhlet listing 40 works from the exhibition of the same name. [6] pages. The larger booklet is the Summer 1959 edition of the journal of The Museum of Primitive Art, giving an in-depth look at the works on view in the exhibition held May to September of that year, for which the second, smaller booklet is the catalogue, listing each work with a brief annotation. Introductory essay in the larger book is by Gordon F. Ekholm; identifications of the stones for the catalogue were made by Charles H. Behre. Nice to have these two volumes together for the complete idea of what the exhibition entailed. (Inventory #: 162774)
