Description:
Tuesday, 25 April 2006 THIS CATALOG HAS 28 TIPPED IN PRINTS, AND 28 PAGES, WITH 146 TOTAL PLATES OR PICTURES. MOST OF THE CATALOGS WERE 16 AND 24 PAGES, WITH EITHER 16 OR 24 TIPPED IN PRINTS, PLUS LESS BLACK AND WHITE PAGE PHOTOS. THESE RED LANTERN CATALOGS WERE NOT PRINTED IN THE THOUSANDS. THEY ONLY PRINTED THEM FOR THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THEY THOUGHT WOULD ATTEND THEIR EXHIBITION. (USUALLY 100'S) THIS MAKES THEM RARE REFERENCE CATALOGS, AS WELL AS RARE TIPPED IN PRINTS. THE RED LANTERN SHOP REPRESENTED JAPANESE ARTISTS, AND MAY STILL DO SO. THIS IS A 1971 WINTER CATALOG WITH 28 PAGES. ALSO, THIS IS THE ONLY OTHER ONE I HAVE FOR 1971. THE CATALOG HAS 28 TIPPED IN COLOR PRINTS OR COLOR PHOTOS, THE OTHER 118 ARE BLACK & WHITE PAGE PHOTOS. 25 OF THE TIPPED IN PRINTS ARE AT LEAST 3" INCHES LONG OR WIDE, UP TO 4 1/2" INCHES LONG OR WIDE. THERE ARE ONLY 3 OF THE TIPPED IN PRINTS UNDER 3" INCHES, THIS IS ALSO UNUSUAL. THE MAJORITY ARE LARGER SIZES THAN NORMAL. MOST OF THE ARTISTS IN THIS CATALOG ARE FAMOUS TODAY, WHERE-AS SOME WERE ALREADY FAMOUS. THE ARTISTS NAMES ARE NEXT TO THE TIPPED IN COLOR PRINTS IN THE PICTURES BELOW, OR AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE. THE CATALOG WAS USED AND READ, BUT NOT ABUSED. THIS ONE IS IN VERY GOOD CONNDITION. THERE IS ALSO A 1971 PRICE LIST FOR ALL 146 ART WORKS THAT ARE SHOWN IN THIS CATALOG.
