Profusely illustrated. *** "This book will provide the first comprehensive and critical overview of Associated American Artists (AAA), the commercial enterprise best known as the publisher of prints by Thomas Hart Benton, John Steuart Curry, and Grant Wood. It addresses not only AAA's storied involvement in the sale of American prints via mail-order catalogue, but also its ongoing promotion of American art in a range of mediums over six decades. Through aggressive marketing of studio prints, reproductions of art, ceramics and textiles, and associations with corporate advertisers, AAA sought to bring "original" American art over the threshold of every American home" - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: A chronology of Associated American Artists, 1934-2000, by Gail Windisch; Delivering art to American homes: Associated American Artists and the two men who shaped it, 1934--84, by Gail Windisch; "Genuine acceptance": Aaron Bohrod and Associated American Artists, by Jane Myers; Prints in the heartland: Raymond L.
