WALTER SCHNACKENBERG (1880-1961) SCHNACKENBERG, WALTER. Schnackenberg: Kostüme / Plakate und Dekorationen. Introductory text by Oskar Bie. 43 plates, most are beautifully colored in pochoir, some heightened in gold. Folio, cloth, rebacked, retaining original pictorial covers, lightly scuffed; some reinforcements to gutters, scattered usual toning to plates, occasional light creasing, minor tears and soiling to a few. Second Edition. Munich: Musarion, 1922
An excellent compendium of Schnackenberg's posters, costumes and stage designs. The plates in this book are more in keeping with the Maitres de l'Affiche images, in that they were pulled by Oskar Consee (Schnackenberg's exclusive printer), and were surely done under the artist's supervision, with rich inking on high-quality paper.
