1938ref. 8271938. Superb. Etching on antique Emberlin 1846 cream laid paper with a parial watermark of Britannia or Seated Victory set in a cartouche surmounted by the Crown of England 3 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches 83 x 140 mm full margins. Signed dated and inscribed "Ed. 150 II" in pencil lower margin. Non-archival tape tabs at the top corners recto well outside of the image area otherwise in excellent condition. Fletcher states an unknown number of first state proof impressions and 13 second state proof impressions; he also states a regular edition of 231 second state impressions. Arms's hand inscription regarding the numbering on this print remains slightly mysterious although Fletcher does descibe other instances in which recorded edition numbers appeared to be incomplete or incorrect so not an anomoly in this instance. The very special paper hand chosen for this impression would indicate that this is a proof impression perhaps a presentation proof of the second state aside from an unrealized run of 150. Fletcher 315. Paper: Arms was typical of the artists of this period - he was obsessed with paper a mania for collecting paper that could/would improve an edition. The quantity he left after his death distributed by his wife to fellow artists witnesses his love for finely made paper -paper interesting because of texture color distinctive weave. The earliest paper known to have been used by Arms came from a Baptismal Register Kirchen Ordnung The Reformed Church Middletown Dauphin County Pennsylvania 1708 bought in a bookshop in Philadelphia. His early prints 1915-1919 evidence paper taken from old books with gilded edges. Some prints appear on stationary from the Cisalpine Napoleonic Italy still bearing the estampe of the office or department; others carry penned ink page numbers taken from old ledgers of the Eighteenth Century-all beautiful shades of grey blue and green handmade ribbed and otherwise. Some of his color aquatints were printed on full sheets of heavy chine or Japanese vellum giving a sense of luxury in the richness of the stock and the width of the margins. There was a myriad of modern papers gleaned in England France Italy and the United States. -William Dolan Fletcher A Man For All Times p. 15. unknown

Born in 1887 in Washington DC John Taylor Arms studied at Princeton University and ultimately earned a degree in architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1912. With the outbreak of W.W.I Arms served as an officer in the United States Navy and it was during this time that he turned his focus to printmaking having published his first etching in 1919. His first subjects were the Brooklyn Bridge near the Navy Yard and it was during his wartime travel that Arms created a series of extraordinarily detailed etchings based on gothic cathedrals and churches he visited in France and Italy the plate for Guardians of the Spire was created in 1921. He used what was available to him namely sewing needles and a magnifying glass to create the incredibly rich and fine detail that his etchings are known for. Upon his return to New York after the war Arms enjoyed a successful career as a graphic artist created a series of etchings of American cities and published Handbook of Print Making and Print Makers Macmillan 1934. He served as President of the Society of American Graphic Artists and in 1933 was made a full member of the National Academy of Design. Arms died in Fairfield Connecticut in 1953. unknown
