A survey

Beerbohm, Max, Sir, 1872-1956 · 1921 · New York, Doubleday, Page · 51 pictures

A portfolio of caricature plates by Max Beerbohm, published in New York by Doubleday, Page in 1921 for readers who followed English literary, political and society figures. The drawings are reproduced as full-page halftones: elongated or swollen figures in frock coats and top hats, drawn in soft pencil and flat tone against bare backgrounds, with Beerbohm's handwritten captions and dialogue set into the empty space — useful for figure silhouettes, hand-lettered caption placement, and exaggerated portrait profiles.
