Albuquerque Museum has an exhibit until April dealing with Block Printing in New Mexico--The Art of the Curved Line. It has some wonderful Gustav Baumann prints and the wood blocks and some contemporary work. It did not show people at work creating the wood blocks or the prints themselves--what did they use for magnification?
I'll try to get a stamp planted soon for those who want to see this.

We had planned to go see this exhibit a few weeks ago, but it turned out that the museum was closed on that day- a Monday. We will try to get down another time before April. Thanks for the heads up and your recommendation. We are fans of Baumann. Looking forward to finding your new letterbox!
