SOLD
Meuthen Publishing released only 350 of
this set in 1979 and they sold out immediately. Morrisseau

prestigious Order of Canada Medal from the Governor General
Ed Shreyer the year before. Redkettle's boxed set is pristine
condition and is #48/350 and comes with provenance. The Sales
Manager then of Muthuen Books has provided Redkettle with
a signed letter stating he purchased the set for himself
the day it was released in '79 and all has remained secure
in the box since. Wax paper is still sealed tightly around
the leather bound book inside the box. The art book and bio
