Reference Books


Currier & Ives Prints: An Illustrated Checklist by Frederic A. Conningham (Crown, 1983). This is the most widely used Currier & Ives reference book by dealers and collectors. Prints are usually cited with the Conningham number (for example, C: 6169 is “Trotting Cracks at the Forge”). The first edition listed about 5,700 prints and was expanded to include almost 7,000 when last published in 1983.

Currier & Ives: A Catalogue Raisonné by Gale Research (Gale Group, 1984). This massive two-volume set lists more than 7,500 prints, but is now out of print. Well worth looking for on the used market.
