I love Beardsley and especially his work for The Yellow Book. I’ve owned this piece for about a decade.

Well, I don’t plan on being finished with it any time soon. No need to wait, though, if you really want a copy: you can buy it HERE. It comes in different sizes, mediums and framed/unframed.

In the 1970’s I picked up a box of copies of “The Yellow Book” at a used book store and gave them to my then brother-in-law. I think this issue was in the group. I hope he still has them. I always kicked myself for not going back and getting the half a dozen copies they had left.

Oh, how freaking cool is that! I am totally envious. I would love to own just one copy. Of course, they are likely significantly harder to come by (not to mention more expensive) now than in the 1970s.

Oh dear. I hadn’t even heard of the Yellow Book before, so I had to google it. An interesting publication and history! I learn so many things from reading your blog.
