Fagan identifies about three-fourths of the marks with regard to ownership, with auction information for perhaps one-half. With index. A following "supplement" lists fifty variants of the marks already reproduced. The last part ("new contributions") is an addition by the editors of this edition, Milton Einstein and Max Goldstein, and lists 205 additional marks, many of them from America (e.g. M. Cassatt, J.P. Morgan), following the format of part one, although a smaller portion of marks are identified.
