    Six Thomas Richard Hood Prints of Literary Greats, Signed by Hood and by Each Author. Six prints (five 8" x 11" and one 8" x 12.5"), n.p., three undated, three dated 1933. Small collection of handsome portrait prints by important American printmaker Richard Hood, featuring the following authors and poets: Edwin Arlington Robinson, Booth Tarkington, Christopher Morley, P.

Prints are faintly toned; three bear small paper mounts at upper corners.
