Condition & notes
In good condition. Pictorial paper covers show mild shelf wear with light bumping to edges and some soiling along the spine edge of the front cover. Binding tight. Hammer prices written in ink beside the estimates throughout, with occasional notes and corrections beside individual lots. Laid in is the original Butterfield's prices realized mailer, covering this sale and the American and European prints sale of 24 July 1990. Two hundred and seventy-two lots of California painting, sold simultaneously in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Maynard Dixon, Edgar Payne, Granville Redmond, William Keith, Thomas Hill, Carl Oscar Borg, Edward Borein, John Marshall Gamble, Mary DeNeale Morgan and Marion Kavanaugh Wachtel are among the artists represented, most lots carrying provenance and a black-and-white illustration facing the description. Hammer prices recorded against nearly every estimate, together with the printed prices realized sheet laid in, make this a working record of what the sale actually brought rather than a catalogue of estimates alone. Artist index of roughly three hundred names. Cover reproduces Gamble's Lupines and Poppies Along the California Coast, lot 2215.
