There is a shadow on the glass, that image is not on the print.

THE ONLY 1/1 RAREST Louis Icart "Spring Song" Talio-Crome 1934 Brown & Bigelow Unreleased Print

This publisher's proof never went to publication. In 40 years collecting Brown & Bigelow, this is the ONLY complete copy of this print I have ever seen. Other than an original Icart work of art, this is the rarest print Icart you can find. I have seen one other publisher's proof ever of "Spring Song" from Brown & Bigelow, and it was incomplete, cut up by the layout department.

I knew it was something special when I saw it. The more I continued to research this print, the more intrigued I became. What we have here is Louis Icart "Spring Song" Talio-Crome 1934 Framed Brown & Bigelow Print. Brown & Bigelow is based out of St. Paul, MN., and the company has been around for over 100 years. (Founded in 1896) This was slated to be issued as a promotional, but never saw publication.
What you see here is the print art in its original period frame. The mat was replaced with a similar color tone in archival stock and the piece was re-backed. The frame dimensions approximately 15.5 by 20.5 inches.

When I removed it from the frame it read Talio-Crome Reproduction 1934 Brown & Bigelow in the upper left corner, and the bottom center had the title "Spring Song". Just lovely and timeless, and exceedingly difficult to find. 20+ years on eBay - purchase with confidence. My feedback GLOWS because this is a one-person shop and I do this for the love of art. I only want HAPPY BUYERS and I feel the secret to that is good communication, Indepth descriptions and great packaging. Please, if you have questions - ask them. Thanks!!

The frame is just short of 90 years old, there is some nominal wear. PLEASE see pictures for condition!! I use LOTS of pictures. I am happy to give you a breakdown of any condition issues if you need one. I LOVE to send more pictures and respond quickly to questions. AGAIN - PLEASE SEE PICTURES AND ASK QUESTIONS. IF YOU HAVE CONCERNS about condition, do not bid until you are happy. I ONLY want happy, repeat customers!! Communication is key!! I do NOT ship glass.  Whenever possible I use archival shipping materials for art and comics.
