FYI
Derek, the color versions of the woodcuts are not really an issue, but are hand done mostly many years later. I believe there is still a company that is colorizing these. At one time they used to send them on spec to bookshops etc. some are pretty accurate, but many are not. Gary’s example above is particularly well done. (And thank you.)
As for the New York Clipper books I know of at least 2 versions. The Lipset version is hard to find, but there are at least 3 copies available online 40-50 bucks or so.
The other version is a Mcfarland publication from around 2010,. It has the biographies and I think all the woodcuts. I know there is a 2 volume version but I think there may be a 1 volume version also, not sure. These are also available but last I looked were more expensive.
