Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Does anyone have any knowledge of this issue other than the information that appears in the Standard Catalogue and/or scans of at least what one looks like?

Posted By: <b>Andy Baran</b><p>Phil,<br><br>There is a book floating around that I believe has all of the images of the woodcuts. If my memory serves me, the book was put out by Lew Lipset. I searched for one for many years, but gave up.

Posted By: <b>Andy Baran</b><p>The book was published by Lipsett in 1984. Good luck finding one. I've only seen it for sale once, and it was gone by the time I called.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Leon- the funny thing is I am taking a vacation from a vacation, but due to the aggravation of trying to get the house rented, I'll need another vacation!
