The Print Collector's Quarterly (initially hyphenated as The Print-Collector's Quarterly), was a quarterly periodical that was begun in 1911 and continued under various publishers until 1950. The original founders were art dealer Frederick Keppel and art historian, Fitzroy Carrington.
The Print Collector's Newsletter 1978 vol 9, p. 22 stated, "The Print Collector's Quarterly summed up the taste and concerns of many American and British print collectors of the first four decades of our (ie the 20th) century."
The publication is described as "A profusely illustrated journal containing catalogue raisonné and articles by recognized authorities on individual artists." in A Guide to the Literature of Art History by Arntzen, E. & Rainwater, R. Publisher: American Library Association, Chicago, 1980 (Chamberlin 2315; Arntzen/Rainwater Q 281.)
Until Volume 8 (1921) the periodical was published with a hyphenated name (The Print-Collector's Quarterly) on the title page.
In the introduction to Volume 8, Fitzroy Carrington advised that Campbell Dodgson had become editor. Of note, Carrington used the unhyphenated title in his introduction even though the title page of the volume was hyphenated.
Volume 9 (1922) listed Dodgson as editor and Carrington as American editor - it had the title page hyphenated but an interior title page without the hyphen.
Volume 10 (1923) no longer listed Carrington and all further volumes were titled without the hyphen.
