Dwight Mackintosh: the boy who time forgot; forward [sic] by Irene Ward Brydon

MacGregor, John, Ph. D.

Oakland: Creative Growth Art Center, 1992. Hardcover. 96p., high-gloss paperstock throughout, leaves are divided between MacGregor's comment and captioned reproductions of drawings by artist Mackintosh. Repros are in color or in b&w as called for. Oblong 5.75 x 8.75 inch clothbacked boards in dj; covers are very faintly edgeworn, both hinges have developed short cracks (structurally neutral, no special risks), while the translucent jacket is almost perfect: jacket's slightly nicked at top-edge extremities, but the "transparent" effect is unimpaired, this effect designed-in to mimic Mackintosh's work with transparency. Author MacGregor has inscribed and signed (as "John") the terminal endsheet "on the occasion of a darger lecture Oct 1997" - i.e., a lecture on Henry Darger, best-known of American outsiders. CGAC monograph 1.

A beautiful production; author MacGregor did the Princeton University Press survey "Discovery of the Art of the Insane," a scholarly masterpiece in the field of outsider art.
