_____________________________________________

Brigham, Clarence S. PAUL REVERE'S ENGRAVINGS. Worcester; American
Antiquarian Society: 1954. A scholarly, definitive reference to the full
range of Revere's varied and interesting work. An essential reference, and
this, the first edition, is much grander and more physically pleasing than
the more common reprint.

Hardcover. 9.5"x12.5", 181 pages, plus 77 plates, several colored, and
some folding; not a great copy - with rubbed covers and the worn and
stained remnants of the dust jacket; water-rippled for the last 60 pages
or so, and with some very light staining to the rear end sheets; slightly
shaken.

Inscribed "To Francis Taylor From the Author Clarence S. Brigham July 26,
1955". Presumably to Francis Henry Taylor (1903-1957), former Director of
the Worcester Art Museum, Curator of Medieval Art at the Philadelphia
Museum of Art, and Director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  [05693]
$100.00
