137 CHECKLIST OF KELLOGG LITHOGR APHS IN THE CONNECTICUT HISTOR ICAL SOCIET Y candice c. brashears and michael shortell This checklist includes all 1,158 lithographs by the Kellogg brothers in the collections of the Connecticut Historical Society as of June 1, 2007. Some titles are present in more than one impression. The title of each lithograph is followed by the Kelloggs’ original stock number, when present, and the date the print was issued. The full names and addresses of the Kelloggs and co-publishers are recorded as they appear on the print. Dimensions, given in centimeters with the vertical dimension first, are image size, including the printed border or rule around the image, but not the title (unless the title appears within the image itself). The accession numbers for the prints are followed, in parentheses, by an indication of whether the impression is black and white, hand-colored, or printed in color. Other significant variations between impressions are noted on occasion. Some prints acquired by The Connecticut Historical Society after June 1, 2007, are illustrated and discussed in this book. In those cases, the designation “not in cat.” is included in the text in place of a checklist reference. “G” references are to the Gale Research Company, Currier & Ives: A Catalogue Raisonné (1984). A straight G number (G1000) indicates that the compositions of the Kellogg print and the Currier print are identical. g1000r indicates that the compositions are identical, but are mirror images of one another. g1000s indicates that the compositions are similar, but with significant differences. g1000sr indicates that they are similar but mirror images. “Not g1000” means that the prints are not the same composition. Gaps in numbering sequences mean either that no images of the intervening Currier & Ives prints were available or that the prints have different titles. Though every effort was made to identify corresponding prints, some were inevitably missed and remain to be discovered. It should be clear from the dates of the prints in question that, although the Kelloggs undoubtedly copied Currier & Ives prints on occasion, Currier & Ives also copied Kellogg prints, probably with equal frequency. The large number of similar prints and totally different prints with identical titles suggests that the relationship between the firms was more creative than has sometimes been assumed. 138  c h e c k l i s t o f k e l l o g g l i t h o g r a p h s 1.
