Description
Charles Schreyvogel: My Bunkie and Others Pictures of Western Frontier Life. (New York: Moffat, Yard & Company, 1909), first edition, 36 plates reproduced from Schreyvogel paintings, pictorial cover on white paper boards shelf-backed in orange cloth with black and red lettering, oblong folio (16.75" x 12.25"), no dust jacket (as issued). Charles Schreyvogel gained early exposure to the western United States from sketching horses, cowboys and Native Americans in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. He made his first trip west in 1893, but it did not result in popular success for his art. Only after winning first prize at the National Academy of Design in 1901 was Schreyvogel's reputation secured, and he remains one of the most respected artists of the American West. The first edition of My Bunkie and Others presented here contains 36 13" x 9" Schreyvogel paintings reproduced on thick card stock paper. The book shows mild soiling of the boards, some edge wear, and minimal scattered foxing, else fine. A fine book of Western American art from one of the West's true master artists.View all of [The Chris Kortlander Collection ]
