| jean artists, all of which are for

rent. This newest wrinkle in rental libraries, which is pulling In customers from tiny - income groups to well-heeled connoisseurs throughout the country, is a service offered by the New York Circulating Library of Paintings. It was originated by two sisters—Mrs. George Butler and Mrs. Henry Sadowsky daughters of a wealthy furrier, who conceived the idea several months “ago of sharing their valuable collection with other art lovers. Paintings go out on a monthly | rental basis of three dollars and | up. For example, a cheerful ofl | painting by Louis Bosa, “Merry | Go Round,” valued-at $100, rents for three dollars. “Blue Girl,” by Robert Philipp, carries “an $800 | price tag but rents for $10. “So far none has been damaged | or lost,” say the sisters, straining™=: for a piece of wood to hit with a | good, resounding knock. : Any given day customers: will | range from a& modest suburbanite | who wants to rent a small, mod- | ern oil asa birthday surprise for | her husband to a night-club owner who orders a picture a month to hang in the ultra-swank foyer of his glossy night-spot. In each mail arrive letters from out-of-town - renters. ‘A Baton Rouge, La. housewife, for example, asks: “What pictures do you have of children?” Photographs of the paintings are sent | to her, and she makes her selectoin from those. Then the original canvas is crated and shipped. “Usually people select’ pictures that remind then of happy

nip

associations,” say the sisters, who
