    This is a gem of an exhibit catalog, especially with the signature of the artist along with a drawing, too. This was received promptly and in perfect condition, the packaging was very secure and protective of this publication. The item was as described. There were several copies on eBay, but with the signature & the artist’s drawing in this particular copy, this appears to put it at a fair value. Thanks to the seller.
