Sunset Magazine sale of Maynard Dixon posters

Sunset Magazine’s annual fair included a rummage sale that featured at least two Maynard Dixon covers for sale, posters for $15 — the website indicates they were normally $50.

I may have to look into writing something more articulated about the relationship between Sunset Magazine and this famous Western painter. Sussing around the search-injuns yields a plethora of leads including papers at UC Berkeley, the state library foundation newsletter, two Maynard Dixon museum and the prominent Southwest gallery run by Mark Sublette, who wrote a book on Dixon.

There is also a famous post-Earthquake edition of Sunset from May, 1906 with cover and interior self-portrait by the artist.
