4671PORNOGRAPHIC WATERCOLORS. Album. 9pgs. 7†x 5â€. No date circa 1950s. Cleveland. A scrapbook of nine pornographic watercolors probably dating from the 1950s. On the back of the last page is a pencil note “Drawn by an artist named Ganzman of Clevelandâ€. Without giving away too many details the illustrations concern a “relationship†between Elsie May and Zeke and the drawings get more obscene as the book progresses. Finally Elsie May’s father a farmer shows up with a shotgun on the last page. Based on the misspellings the artist either wasn’t a native English speaker or a poor speller. I do not believe this is the work of a teenage boy. The scrapbook is held together by two clasps and the edges have some wear and folds. unknown books

Undated but likely drawn in the late-18th or early-19th century tho they could be as late as mid-19th; a pencilled notation on the FFEP indicates that the artist is Pierre-Louis Henri Grevedon and the drawings collected by Franklin De Haven. Just a little light wear to binding; internally very clean with the small leather ex-libris of American collector Robert Hoe. <br/><br/>Grevedon 1776-1860 was known for his beautiful portraits of young women and these bust-length portraits are no exception; showing all sorts of women some plainly dressed perhaps a maid and others in more extravagant costume coiffure headdress including a bride. Grevedon published several collections of drawings in his lifetime and some of his works now reside in the permanent collections of the Brooklyn Museum Art Institute of Chicago Harvard and more. n.p. hardcover books
