Have'nt been able the identify the exact print anywhere. Its in its original frame and say Curtis Publishing Co. on the bottom corner of the print. Just curious why I have never seen this particular one, is it rare or what. Searched Curtis Publishing Co., Los Angeles, CA who did some publishing for Parrish between 1919 and 1920. Would like to find out the name of the print and anything else pertinent re: this piece.

Is there a signature or MP on it anywhere? This looks more like an Atkinson Fox to me. very nice colors, though. I have a few books on Parrish, including Coy Ludwig's, and I've never seen this one before
Picture reads "LA Publishing Co." not Curtis sorry for this mis-infor
