    Good Evening Antiquers,
    I’m looking for some general info and advice regarding these prints. They are a set of engravings from Rockwell Kent’s original drawings for Venus & Adonis published by the Printing House of Leo Hart in 1931. They were made as an accompaniment to the deluxe issue of the book, there were only 75 sets of these made. The engravings are matted and mounted to boards with acetate overlays - the boards measure 10 5/8" x 7 3/4" and the average picture measures 5" x 3". There are supposed to be 21 prints in the set and I only have 20. I’m having a difficult time finding any sales records for the set or listed individually. Additionally, I do not have the book, but I do have the original box. Does anyone have advice on how to sell something like this? IMG_2633.jpg IMG_2640.JPG IMG_2636.JPG

    In 2014 PBA auctions in SanFrancisco were selling many lots of the signed Moby Dick prints. You might contact them for advice.
