The Museum of Primitive Art, New York, 1967. 'Distributed by New York Graphic Society Ltd., Greenwich, Connecticut'. Soft Cover. 'Lowland Maya sculpture, which underwent spectacular developments during the first millennium AD, constitutes one of the great art styles of ancient America.

Rubbings are of Kaminaljuyú (2), Uaxactún, Tikal (8), Palenque (31), Piedras Negras (2), Yaxchilan (3), Bonampak (5), Dzibilchaltún, Santa Lucia Cotzumalhuapa (2), Chichén Itzá (4) and Uxmal and are dated from circa AD 1 to circa AD 1100.
