About This Item
New York: E.P. Dutton, 1982. First Edition. Wraps. Near fine. Signed by Sylvia Massey Czerkas and Donald F. Glut on the half-title. Pictorial survey and appreciation of the work of Charles R. Knight (1874-1953), an American wildlife and paleoartist best known for his detailed paintings of dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals. Though somewhat speculative and not entirely based on solid evidence, Knight's paintings put flesh on creatures no one had ever seen and helped shape the image of dinosaurs that lives in public consciousness to this day. Foreword by Edwin H. Colbert. Quarto: [iv], [120] p. with numerous illustrations (many color). Original pictorial paper wrappers. Near fine.
