Primicias litográficas del grabador José Guadalupe Posada

"Collection of cartoons and religious images drawn by Mexico's most famous pre-revolutionary lithographic artist, José Guadalupe Posada. Reprint of a volume published in Aguascalientes in 1952, the centenary of Posada's birth. Volume includes his work during his days at Aguascalientes and León beginning in 1871. Many of the images feature religious symbols (including holy cards for funerals) or wrappers for cigar boxes. Excellent addition to the copious studies of the famed engraver"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
