Alfred Beier-Red (1902–2001), “9 Heads 1947, 1949, 1959,” 9 original drawings in ink and felt-tip pen by the prominent German caricaturist. He worked primarily for the communist press, such as “Die Rote Post,” “Die Rote Fahne,” etc.; to protect himself from reprisals, he usually signed with the pseudonym “Red.” He was a co-founder of the “Association of Revolutionary Visual Artists,” and from 1946 onward he worked primarily for “Neue Deutschland.” His original drawings and prints are represented in the German Historical Museum, among other places, but are rarely found on the market. Caricatures of Ludwig Erhard, Theodor Heuss, Hans Lukaschek, Dr. Niklas, Dr. Schaeffer, Franz Blücher, 2x Alois Hundhammer, and a self-portrait, hand-signed “Red,” with original banderole, sheet dimensions 20 x 16.5 cm
