Description

Scarce signed book with original Soyer sketch

Signed book: Raphael Soyer: Drawings and Watercolors. First edition. NY: Crown Publishers, 1968. Hardcover with dust jacket, 8.75 x 11.25, 124 pages. Signed and inscribed on the first free end page in pencil, “For Dr. Ezra M. Greenspan, from Raphael Soyer, New York, 1974,” adding a wonderful bust-length sketch of the recipient wearing a suit and tie. The front pastedown is signed and inscribed by the author Joseph K. Foster, and bears an affixed Christmas card from the Soyer family. In fine condition, with wear to dust jacket. Soyer remains uncommon in signed books, with this example enhanced greatly by the presence of a wonderful original sketch, the first we have seen in over a decade. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
