85. MACLISE, Angus. THE NEW UNIVERSAL SOLAR CALENDAR [Inscribed].

$3500

Similar to MacLise’s earlier “Year,” The New Universal Solar Calendar renames the days of the year, but in this format prints the phrases in his characteristic calligraphic hand, producing a full artwork that actually seems to take itself a bit more seriously than most of the multiples produced by Macianus at the time. Fluxus Codex page 398. OCLC locates only one example, included in the Angus MacLise papers held by Columbia University. Rare, even more so inscribed as here.

$3,500
