The marvelous plates depict views and specific structures and parks in Mexico City and its environs, as well as several depictions of regional costumes. The majority of plates in this copy are colored, primarily in shades of brown and green, with numerous details in additional colors.

With Lithographs by Willem De Kooning. New York: Limited Editions Club, 1988. Limited to 550 numbered copies with Willem de Kooning's facsimile, authorized signature taken from the hand-signed Bon a Tirer proof (as his health prohibited him from signing originals). This being number 35. Large folio (21 3/4 x 17 3/8 inches; 555 x 440 mm). With 17 original lithographs by Willem de Kooning. With publisher's prospectus.

Box with a black leather spine label, lettered in gilt. A fine copy. "The Museum of Modern Art honored Frank O'Hara with a memorial edition of his poetry illustrated by artists who knew and loved him-foremost among them, William de Kooning. De Kooning made his drawings on mylar which he then presented to the Museum. A quarter of a century later, the mylar drawings were transferred to lithographic plates and printed under the supervision of the artist and the Museum of Modern Art solely in order to illustrate the Club's edition of those O'Hara poems that had so moved de Kooning. Seventeen of de Kooning's eighteen charcoal drawings are reproduced here for the first time as originally intended-with their subtle strokes and wide tonal range. De Kooning's drawings were transferred from their original mylar sheets to lithographic plates and printed on hand--made ochre?tinted Kitakata paper. Each print was torn by hand and pressed into the book's pages by the intaglio method." (From the publisher). LEC Bibliography. HBS 69340. $2,750.
