1st ed., limited to 212 signed and numbered copies. Softcover, 50 pp. This brief monograph written and designed by Merle Armitage is still the major work on the Southern California-based artist Pasquale Giovanni Napolitano. An Italian-American figurative modernist, he is best known for his New Deal-era mural commissions for the Los Angeles Museum of Art and other Los Angeles area public works. CONDITION: Good; the text block, plates, and signed lithograph are near fine; the covers are damaged, as usually the case with this notoriously fragile publication: both flaps split at the folds, lacking 1/3 of spine, age-toning front and back.
