Print: Salad Herbs 612-6Description
A four-color silkscreen print on off-white linen depicting herbs and implements used for making salad, along with a fragmentary salad recipe.
This print appears solo in the c.1955 brochure “Country Prints In Frames” as item number 612-6, and as part of a set of three prints in the c.1960 brochure “Country Prints in Frames Designed by Robert Darr Wert” with a grouped item number of 612-7 (with Pot Herbs and Tea Herbs).
This example was published by the Artistic Picture Publishing Co., Inc., NYC, indicating Country Prints engaged an outside company to further distribute prints beyond their network of independent sales representatives.
A matching tile was also produced; see images.Made/Created
