Price: US$15.40 + shipping

Description: Two-tone cloth, 4to, 29 cm, xiv, 357 pp, ills, plates. "From 1840 through the early 1900s America's culture was dramatically changed by the introduction of a new method of producing and disseminating art - chromolithography. Printed by the millions in up to twenty colors, these lithographs made their way into every household, were bought by every class of person, and portrayed every subject imaginable, from soup labels to snake oil, trapeze artists to presidents, still lifes to landscapes. Broadsides, trade cards, posters, and wail hangings were consumed voraciously, fed by millions of pounds of printing ink, thousands of lithographic stones, and hundreds of printing presses. In short order, lithography became a giant American industry. The mass production of chromolithographs was a technological accomplishment with a vibrant social presence. Chromotithographs epitomized an essential element of America's nineteenth-century culture, so much so that they gave their name to an era - the chromo-civilization. The Democratic Art. Is the first full-scale study of the chromo phenomenon. "- from the blurb. Very Good in a lightly used dustwrapper with minor wear.
