Flora Schofield, Chicago Block Print Calendar, 1942, mid-century
Located in New York, NY
As this is a calendar for 1942, the prints were no doubt made in 1941. All images are wood engravings by members of the Chicago Society of Artists. With essay by Ernest F. Detterer, Custodian, Newberry Library, Chicago. The outside measurements are 8 1/2 x 11 x 1 inches. The cover image and most of the additional works are 5 x 7 inches.
