Hundreds of black and white halftone plates, depicting the various paintings. On the opposite leaves, printed in red ink, are the painting titles and artists. A front blank contains a tipped-in photograph of Schemm, surrounded by his bounty of paintings. A crisp, clean copy in the publisher's red cloth, stamped in gilt. Very minor dust-soiling to the cloth, and an owner's name on the front free endpaper, else a rather crisp, sharp example; near fine. A very nice production.
