Within the multifaceted production of Mexico’s most prolific engraver, José Guadalupe Posada (1852-1913), the illustrations for the “penny chapbooks” occupy a special place. This book, which evokes the design and dimensions of a nineteenth-century chapbook, reveals the wide range of Posada’s talents. The essay by Mercurio López Casillas, a specialist in the field, enriches the publication with a series of colorful anecdotes about the genesis of this unique body of Mexican graphic art.
