Each individual figure of the set brings brightness and color to the wall, wherever it may be hung. ‘The edition is limited to 2,000 sets. The collection consists of eight of the very best examples of Mr, Zimmerman’s work, repro- duced in six colors by the original process, all handsomely mounted ready for immediate fram- ing.
