The Stronger Sex
by Vertes and Janet Flanner
- Used
- poor
- Hardcover
- first
This is copy 470 of an edition of 1750 of this large folio-sized volume with commentary by Janet Flanner and 24 tipped-in plates by Vertes with the subject of women. This was a top quality edition with lovely illustrations. This copy is rather worn: the covers are soiled, corners bumped, spine darkened, and worst of all one of the plates has been removed. (Circus Family is missing.) The other illustrations are all present in good condition. The former owners name has been written in pencil in the inner flyleaf and the bound edge is dirty. Still, this is a rare volume.

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
