[*] Gibson, Charles Dana. Our neighbors. [**]$4.20. Scribner.
The present collection, which it is announced, contains Mr. Gibson’s last work in black and white, “is uniform in size, shape, and binding with the nine volumes which have preceded it. It is entitled ‘Our neighbors,’ a phrase generally interpreted to mean all sorts and conditions of men and women. The Gibson Girl is charmingly portrayed, as well as the Gibson Man, the Gibson Dowager, and the Gibson Old Gentleman. There are also the street types ... and cartoons.” (Dial.)
[*] “Perhaps Mr. Gibson has done his best in black-and-white; at least he will have to do something very good indeed to surpass the general level of ‘Our neighbors.’”
