Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Fischer, Anton Otto (illustrator). First Printing - First American Edition. Nantucket, Massachusetts: Mill Hill Press, 1984. Brand New in a Brand New dust jacket. Bright, shiny, clean, square, tight, and unmarked. No chips. No tears. No creases. No remainder mark. No owner's name or bookplate. Original green boards, gilt. With 236 illustrations, including many of Fischer's paintings beautifully reproduced in full-color. This is an account of the life and art of Anton Otto Fisher (1882 - 1962), perhaps the greatest marine artist to work on the western side of the Atlantic. Even so Fisher's prolific magazine illustrations seem to be better known to the public than his paintings. His work appeared frequently in the SATURDAY EVENING POST, LIFE MAGAZINE, HEARST'S, and HARPER'S WEEKLY, among others. Fisher illustrated stories by Joseph Conrad, Jack London, Rudyard Kipling, Rex Beach, Ben Ames Williams, and Albert Payson Terhune. The book was originally published in 1977 in Great Britain. This is the first US edition and was published at $49.95. Oversize Hardcover. 9" wide by 11.5" tall. This large, heavy book will require extra postage for Priority and International shipments, but only the standard charge for media mail. First Printing - First American Edition. Oversize Hardcover.
