Description: Myers, Robert J., Frances M. Schwartz, Winfield W. Coleman, Lynda Cunningham and Myers/Adams (Firm) (1975). Primitive Art of Melanesia: [Catalog of an Auction Held] February 20, 1975 ... Summit Hotel ... New York City. New York, N.Y., Robert J. Myers. A rare catalog packed-full of images and information of an exhibition in advance of an auction of Melanesian and Australian Aboriginal art in NYC on February 20m 1975. 64 unnumbered pages. Estimate valuations inserted. Catalog text by Winfield W. Coleman and Lynda Cunningham ; catalog prepared by Robert J. Myers and Frances M. Schwartz. The catalog is divided into sections on Borneo, Australia, New Hebrides, Trobriand Islands, Siassi Archipelago and Tami Islands, and New Guinea. The New Guinea section is further divided into sub regions of Papuan Gulf, Highlands, Sepik, Abelam and more. Each object is represented by a small by clear image an extended caption, and reference to the literature. This appears to be an exceedingly rare catalog. I cannot find copies of it on eBay, Amazon, or specialized dealers sites.
