The University of Georgia has three volumes of this catalog raisonne.
 Christian Zervos published a 33 volume catalogue raisonne beginning
in 1932.   This Picasso Project series updates and expands on the
Zervos.  The volumes I have examined show an effort to give a concise
textual discription of Picasso's works over the time period covered
in that volume followed by black and white reproductions of each
work.  The Picasso project reproductions are four to a page and are
inferior to those in the Zervos catalogues mainly because they are
smaller.  I would say they are probably a good investment for a
research library but I would not recommend them for every library.
I did find three reviews in Choice for volumes as they came out.
They are in June 1996 V. 33 n10 p 1632, October 1996 V. 34 n2 p. 269
and Oct. 1997 Vol. 35 n. 2 p. 286.
