A notable feature of this Cruikshank Collection is the ORIGINAL DRAWINGS AND SKETCHES BY ISAAC CRUIKSHANK AND HIS SONS, GEORGD AND Ropert. These drawings include some of the finest work executed by these artists, among them being—The series of four original water- color drawings by the Elder Cruikshank for the 1768 edition of Thom- son’s Seasons, a facsimile of one of which appears as a frontispiece in this catalogue. The 1917 edition of this work is illustrated by a series of the finished drawings, by the Elder Cruikshank, but differing from those for the earlier issue. There are also three other very important and excellent drawings by this same artist. The. greater part of the Cruikshank Collection comprises items illus- trated by Grorcr CRUIKSHANK. These include many items of UNiQqun INTEREST, some of the plates having the AuToGRAPH IDENTIFICATION BY GEORGE CRUIKSHANK.
