About this Item

Lucy Dawson, also known as "Mac," was a preeminent British illustrator in the 1930s and 1940s revered for her paintings and etchings of dogs, from sporting and non-sporting breeds to hounds and herders. Though she worked in numerous mediums pencil, pen, ink, and oil, her pastels set her work apart. A wonderful collection by the much acclaimed illustrator. There are 16 colour illustrations and many sketches throughout the book. The book features black boards with silver lettering.The rare dustjacket is in only fair condition; there is a 1" piece missing from the top of the spine and general chipping at the edges. This was never a library book. Often copies of this book show up missing plates; please note that all 16 plates are present. This volume has been signed twice by the author with her nickname MAC, on the dust jacket and on the title page.
