Lynd Ward, Wild Pilgrimage, 1932

Lynd Ward is featured with woodcuts from Wild Pilgrimage, 1932, and the U.S. Pipeline company’s advertisements and calendars (although the Morgan didn’t go into those), 1946. Also in the show is the short film by Elias Katz. It documents Ward working on a print for Vertigo, 1937. 

Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris are also well represented.
