INTERNATIONAL STUDIO was associated with THE CONNOISSEUR a magazine for collectors, published April, 1931. This magazine catered to those who enjoyed art, antiques, decorating, and architecture. It was and is a source for research on all of these subjects, as can be seen from the numerous articles and illustrations listed below. It also contains many pages of advertisements, some of which are full-page color ads. Some of the ads for art galleries are so well done that they are almost as valuable as the articles themselves. This issue is in very good condition for a magazine of this age. The binding is tight, and the pages are clean. Additional pictures are available upon request, please send your e-mail address. This issue contains 88 pages.
