Title: John R. Thompson Signed Artist Proof 10 Print Set with Folder
Description: 2000? Aesop's Fables. John R. Thompson Signed Artist Proof 10 Print Set with Folder. Linolcuts? $150 from indyfindings through Ebay, Dec., '24.

The seller called this portfolio rare. I am confirming his judgment, in that I cannot find another mention of it on the web. That is why I am unsure whether the excellent prints are linolcuts, woodcuts, or something else. They are dramatic and unusual. Part of their charm is that they write out the fable, whether in Lloyd Daly's or Thomas James' translation. I am delighted to bring this lovely group together with other fable treasures! Thompson died in 2011.
