In the next year or so I will be looking for a home for a collection of Currier and Ives prints put together in the 1920's. They could go under the hammer, but as a museum "professional" (historyAB antropology MA and intern work as an undergraduate) I'd rather get them into a public collection. Subject is primarily western americana. About 30 ( I need to count them and do an inventory in the next month or two.) At least 6 large folios with some the well known way west, yosemite stuff. Includes, I recall 4 of the darktown series. Generally the prints are in good condition, although they have not been archivally framed. They are largely in period frames. I'd like them to be donated as a set, rather than pieced out. Prints are currently located in Alexandria, Va. and no, I never took pictures of them. (Have you taken pictures of things in your parents homes?) If these were Currier maritime prints I'd know the collecting institutions, but I don't know the western collections.
