It proved impossible to arrange the panels according to the order they were published, due to the fact they were enlarged and reduced. The separated originals are each numbered, perhaps by the artist. This order was not followed by the newspaper editors, however, and in fact, the vignettes are non-sequential. We arranged them in yet another order.</TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD></TR> <TR><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD><TD COLSPAN=8 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><IMG SRC="../a44pix/a44_006p.jpg" BORDER=1></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD></TR> <TR><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD><TD COLSPAN=8 ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=middle><FONT FACE="Palatino,serif"SIZE=2>A proof of the newspaper page</TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD></TR> <TR><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD><TD COLSPAN=8 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><IMG SRC="../a44pix/a44_006d.jpg" BORDER=1></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><FONT COLOR=gray>x</TD></TR> <TR><TR><TD COLSPAN=1 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><A HREF="a44_005.html"><IMG SRC="../../nav/buactpv.jpg"BORDER=0><br><FONT FACE="Copperplate,serif"SIZE=2>PREV</a></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><A HREF="../a44_bidform.html"><FONT FACE="Copperplate,serif"SIZE=2>Absentee<BR>Bid Form</A></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><A HREF="../auclist1a44.html"><FONT FACE="Copperplate,serif"SIZE=2>LIST<BR>of LOTS</A></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=bottom><A HREF="../../../home.html"><IMG SRC="../../nav/ihlogo1in.gif"BORDER=1></A></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><A HREF="../a44_index.html"><FONT FACE="Copperplate,serif"SIZE=2>INDEX to <BR>ARTISTS</A></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><A HREF="../a44_terms.html"><FONT FACE="Copperplate,serif"SIZE=2>Terms of<BR>Sale</A></TD><TD COLSPAN=1 ALIGN=center VALIGN=middle><A HREF="a44_007.html"><IMG SRC="../../nav/buactnx.jpg"BORDER=0><br><FONT FACE="Copperplate,serif"SIZE=2>NEXT</a></TD></TR> <TR><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER><FONT COLOR=GRAY>x</TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER><FONT COLOR=GRAY>x</TD><TD COLSPAN=4 ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER><FONT FACE=Palatino,serif SIZE=2>110 West 25 Street<BR>New York, NY, 10001<BR>212 966-9444</FONT></TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER><FONT COLOR=GRAY>x</TD><TD COLSPAN=2 ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER><FONT COLOR=GRAY>x</TD></TR> </Table></BODY></HTML>
