In den WarenkorbZustand: Very Good. Mexico: Imp. de Antonio Vanegas Arroyo, 1906. Original illustrated broadsheet (37x28cm). Printed on peach newsprint; text and illustrations within a decorative border. Losses to margins briefly affecting border images, else Good or better. Manuel Manilla preceded Jose Guadalupe Posada at Vanegas Arroyo's prin…t shop and pioneered the use of Calaveras in their broadsides. Published here a decade after Manilla's death, this broadside utilizes his "Calavera Tapatia" motif of the cigar-smoking, tequila-drinking, pozole-eating skeletons, followed by 22 captioned vignettes of the various cemetery residents. The broadsheet asks the living to clean up and sweep the squares of the cemetery and leave flowers at the graves before embarking on a tongue-in-cheek and revealing tour of the dead, "Los sexos estan cambiados," "Aquella dama preciosa. Es, in realidad, payaso," and "Aquel cura es un chalán." Rare with one holding in OCLC at NYPL. Tyler, Posada's Mexico p. 297.
