Sanford Robinson Gifford

American

Sketchbook with brown-paper-covered cardboard covers and brown-leather-covered spine. Covers impressed with design of grapevines. Pages of off-white wove paper, slightly darkened, 14.4 x 22.2 cm. Pages have rounded corners. Sewn page block, mostly unbound. Drawings made in graphite. There appears to be a page missing after p. 30; there is a dark offset on the verso of that page, but the facing page does not have a drawing that corresponds.
