Dear Mr. Shiebert:
As a bookseller specializing in out-of-print reference material on American Art, I published a catalogue last year titled The American Renaissance 1876-1913, which included 980 OP monographs on American artists of the period, including 27 books and catalogues on Sargent. I have been a member of ARLIS for more than twenty years, so you probably know of me but may not have been aware of the extent of my inventory (approximately 20,000 titles on American art). If you would like, I can send you the catalogue (it also has 92 items on Whistler). Or If you're in a hurry, I could E-mail you the section on Sargent. Meanwhile, I will check with Yale Press locally tomorrow and find out the status of Ormond's second volume if you haven't received an answer to your query.
If any other members are interested in this catalogue, I would be happy to forward a copy. It is probably too large (72 pages) to send as a file attachment, and it has an attractive Arthur Wesley Dow color woodblock on the cover which would not translate electronically.
Sincerely,
Raymond Smith

Has anyone heard anything about the publication of the second volume of Ormond's cat. raisonne of John Singer Sargent? We have a big Sargent show at the Art Museum coming up here in December and I am trying to acquire as much material as possible in advance.
