From the preface: "This is Volume 5 of Improvisations. First conceived in 1950 from an idea by Julio de Diego, Improvisations has been accepted as a novel and original medium by advertisers in sympathy with the ideals of Artists Equity Association. The member-artists who illustrated the journal were selected by the advertisers and were given complete freedom of expression. Each page was designed by the artist directly on the litho plate, thus making this a collection of original lithographs." Unpaginated. Illustrated throughout with original lithographs by the finest graphic artists of the day including: Malcolm Case, Alex Dobkin, Ernest Fiene, Reginald Marsh, Philip Pollack and many more.
