Misc. Notes
"Reference: Hardie/Carter 275
Signed in ink lower right, titled & numbered XIV/L
The Hardie/Carter catalogue raisonné is somewhat unclear about the printings of this work. They cite a 1st published state, with signature added, edition of 73, numbered I - LXXIII; a 2nd published state, edition of 77, numbered LXXIV - CL, but also make note of an edition published by the American College Society of Print Collectors, apparently represented by this impression. In addition, the print is clearly dated 1930 in the plate, but is dated 1939 in the catalogue, possibly the date of actual publication."
