#2834: Who is Edmound Mangones?
>From Bob Corbett:
I am terribly behind in recording books into my library program and
getting them shelved, probably 50 of more items behind. Thus today
I got a delightful surprised when I attacked the pile a bit and pulled
up an item I had no idea in the world I owned. It is a small book of
a 1952 lecture given in Jamaica by Michelson Paul Hyppolite.
The book is in English and published in Port-au-Prince in 1953 by
L'etat.
What intrigued me are the simply beautiful and very delicate illustrations
by Edmound Mangones. I just fell in love with them. Does anyone out
there know who this is and was he a known artist? There are only five
of them, so perhaps one of these days I can scan them and put them on
my web site. But first, who is this illustrator?
This process of getting to books which I must have purchased as long
ago as six months is quite fun. I am discovering stuff I had not idea
was here and found one item which I purchased TWICE! Ah, the failing
memory of the elderly.
Thanks for any help, Bob Corbett
