Also known as
Paul Hambleton Landacre
Paul Hambleton Landacre (1893–1963) was an American artist and illustrator whose reputation centers on wood engraving and linocut. Based in Los Angeles, he worked within the context of twentieth-century American printmaking and became known for technically controlled, high-contrast images made from relief blocks. His subjects include landscapes, still lifes, nude figures, and abstract compositions, giving collectors a body of work that ranges from recognizable scenery to formal studies of pattern, shape, and light. Landacre also supplied illustrations for books, so his name may appear in both fine-print and bibliographic contexts. National Gallery of Art records document wood engravings such as Some Ingredients (1954) and Smoke Tree (1953), while the Museum of Modern Art maintains an artist record for him. In auction and appraisal settings, collectors commonly encounter individual impressions, works on paper, and illustrated-book material. Establishing the precise medium, date, publication context, and edition information is therefore important when identifying a Landacre object.

Common works and media
Common Paul Landacre works include monochrome wood engravings and linocuts depicting landscapes, still lifes, nude figures, and abstract compositions. National Gallery of Art records document both landscape and still-life wood engravings, while library authority records identify Landacre as an illustrator of published books. Appraisal records should distinguish individual print impressions from illustrations bound into books and should document the medium, dimensions, signature, inscriptions, edition information, publication context, and condition.
Market and appraisal context
Market evidence for Paul Landacre should be evaluated at the object level. Begin by distinguishing a wood engraving from a linocut and recording the image and sheet dimensions, date, signature or inscriptions, edition information, and attribution status. Condition, restoration history, and surface quality should be compared carefully across works on paper. Provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, subject matter, and rarity may also affect how closely one result compares with another. Comparable public sales are most useful when they match the medium, scale, date, subject, and condition of the object being appraised. Public records may exclude private transactions or contain incomplete attribution data, and reported totals may differ in their treatment of buyer premiums and fees.
