Hello, Dolly! does occasionally get bogged in a plot hole, and the score fills a function more often than it casts a spell. But with Oliver Smith's evocative lithograph-like settings and Freddy Wittop's costumes, which gleam like spring tulips against the backdrop of brownstones, there is no handsomer way to visit Little Old New York...
...Seventy newly acquired prints, including a red-chalk drawing, Prudence, by the Dutch master engraver Goltzius; Rembrandt's masterly etching, Landscape with a Man Sketching (circa 1645); a rare Goya lithograph, Men Spitting at a Fire, showing the Spaniard's early use of the medium...
METROPOLITAN-Fifth Ave. at 82nd. Seventy recent additions to the print collection. Choice are a red chalk drawing, Prudence, by the Dutch Master Engraver Goltzius; Rembrandt's masterly little etching, Landscape with a Man Sketching (circa 1645); and a rare Goya lithograph, Men Spitting at a Fire, showing the Spaniard's early use of the medium. Also on view is the Cubiculum, a Pompeian bedroom whose walls are slathered with paintings. Buried for 18 centuries under cinders from Mount Vesuvius, it was dug up in 1900 and only recently restored by the museum...

While studying rotogravure printing for Ohio Match, Simon got interested in McCall Corp., bought a 36% interest in the company...

I made India Night in Paris about a year ago, using three stones, since it is a three-color lithograph. As I worked on the stones with the color washes, I did many things-getting shaded effects with brushes, rags, lifting some of it off with pieces of Kleenex, scraping it, getting all the textures and special effects I wanted. I'm still learning new things myself...
