An additional 19 black-ink drawings by the illustrator, quite evocative, that augment the printed quatrains. An unusually clean assemblage (though the portfolio is a big soiled and grubby). The illustrations are nearly line-drawings but tilt and totter between Art Deco and Surrealist of appears. The artist, Bert Dodson (born, 1938), illustrated several score children's books, too--at least 80 to 2019; 5) DULAC, EDMUND, Illustrator. RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM.
