(NATZLER, GERTRUD AND OTTO). Dalzell Hatfield Galleries Staff. ND (circa 1952).: Dalzell Hatfield Galleries. First Edition. 8vo. Printed Wrappers. Ceramics Monograph. Fine.. One sheet 8 ½ x 11 inches printed offset recto and verso, folded neatly in half to make 8 ½ x 5 ½", 4pp, 2 b&w illustrations. This is a slender four page promotional brochure for renowned California studio ceramicists Otto and Gertrud Natzler published by their longtime Los Angeles dealers, Dalzell Hatfield Galleries. While undated, it is most likely from 1952 and features two photographic plates illustrating a total of four objects, a page of biographical data including collections in which the Natzlers' work was represented, and brief laudatory quotes from "Everyday Art Quarterly", Helen Little, Rose Henderson, Eleanor Jewell, Tokyo's "Industrial Art News", Janice Penney, and Arthur Millier. A bright, most handsome example of this uncommon ephemeral item that was the only printed documentation of the event. Inventory Number: 024490
