KENT, Rockwell; SLOAN, John; et. al. TWELVE PRINTS BY CONTEMPORARY 
AMERICAN ARTISTS. New York: . E. Weyhe, 1919. First Edition. Folio (14"

the limitation page at the inside front cover and the Table of Contents 
at the inside rear. Edited by Carl Zigrosser, designed by Bruce Rogers, 
and printed by Edwin Rudge on watermarked Japan paper. Of a total 
edition of 115 copies, with 15 reserved for the artists and 
collaborators, this is #10 of 100. The 12 prints are of varying sizes, 
each SIGNED by the artist. They include Rockwell Kent's first published 
print, the wood engraving "Blue Bird" (Burne-Jones 1); John Sloan's 
etching "The Copyist at the Metropolitan"; Earl Horter's etching "The 
Dark Tower"; William Auerbach-Levy's etching "Tony"; Kenneth Hayes

Maurice Sterne's lithograph "Dancing Figure"; Albert Sterner's 
lithograph "Earth"; and Mahonri Young's drypoint "Navajo Woman and 
Pony." Quite scarce on the market due to the low limitation and the fact 
that many sets were broken to sell individual prints. Apparently issued 
with a cloth portfolio, not present. (#019620)        $10,000
