Description: Set of Four Gould Hummingbirds Black Hooded Sunbeam Hummingbird, Aglaeactis Pamela Whitetailed Emerald Hummingbird, Thaumatias Chionurus Golden Star Frontlet Hummingbird, Helianthea Eos Phaon Comet Hummingbird, Cometes Phaon Published by the Artistic Pictures Publishing Co. Inc., New York City. Copyrighted in the U.S.A. Description These are authentic lithographic prints dating from the 1940s, not recent reproductions, and not book plates. These prints have never been been hung or displayed, and have been stored flat in their original condition since the day of printing, over 80 years ago. To find a piece in this condition is rare, a true gem! This is a lot of four small 6"x8" Gould Hummingbird lithographs currently being offered. Printed on cream toned paper with crisp, vibrant colors, these delicate and exquisitely detailed floral hummingbirds will look amazing as part of a gallery wall, matted and framed individually, or as a collection. AGE: c. 1940 CONDITION: EXCELLENT! SIZE: 6" x 8" each Please see my other auctions for the rest of this set, pictured in the last few photos, and keep an eye out for future art auctions, ranging from the 1800s to the mid-1900s. Provenance These pieces hail from a collection of vintage artwork that I acquired from a print dealer in the late 1990s. Long retired by the time I met him, he still had a vast collection of lithographs and etchings from the 1930s and 1940s, all of which he had purchased directly from the publisher during that time period. Most still remained in their original paper packaging - untouched! By the time I came into his collection, it had been stored flat and sealed for almost 50 years. I had my own eBay art business for a time before moving on to other things, and once again these pieces were placed in storage for another 20+ years. I am now downsizing and looking to liquidate my remaining collection. This is a rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of history that has truly withstood the test of time. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED I want you to love your artwork as much as I loved my own journey in bringing it to you. These pieces deserve to be seen and appreciated. If you are not 100% satisfied for any reason, please reach out to me immediately and I will make it right. Customer service is my highest priority.
