The Angel, The Automobilist, and Eighteen Others

A rogue’s gallery of unsavoury types, grim realizations and uncertain futures, this early unpublished series of drawings is undated but seemingly crafted in the early 1950s as, or just before, Edward moved to New York City. Though a nascent work, The Angel, The Automobile, and Eighteen Others reveals Edward’s graphic skills and masterful pen and ink technique in full flower.
