Description :

Client's father spent part of the 1950s at art school in Mexico City - she believes the first 3 things in this lot were acquired during his time there. They have been in storage for many years and could use a gentle but thorough cleaning as the serapes have some small discolorations and the guiro some marks. 

2 vintage serapes in hand-woven fabric. Larger measures 24" pit to pit and 34" L. Smaller measures 22" pit to pit and 29" L. 

Vintage guiro with scenes on top & bottom - missing the stroke stick. Measures approx. 15" L. 

Wonderful art box set from JG Posada entitled "Mexican Popular Prints" that contains a small book, 2 newspaper print posters, several cardstock prints, and a newsprint booklet. In excellent condition.
