1879 Trade Price List of Brushes Manufactured By John L. Whiting
<p>Pamphlet 8vo cloth covers gilt title on top cover illustrated 80 pp. Some cover and edge wear center margin tears throughout not affecting text or illustrations by pre drilled hole in pamphlet normal aging and browning; otherwise very good. Somewhat scarce brush catalogue from the 1870s. Whiting started making brushes in the 1850s and by 1868 he had a stand-alone brush business that included other family members. The company expanded a great deal and was considered one of the best brush makers by the 1890s. By the time of John Whiting's death in 1892 it was probably the largest manufacturer in the United States. This attractive little catalogue includes an engraving of the Whiting factory and images of the brushes they made. A complete price list is included. </p>

A large nineteenth century scrapbook containing 66 samples of fabric circa 1870
First Edition. Hardcover. Half suede and marbled papered boards 430 × 310 mm with 140 leaves containing 66 samples of fabric circa 1870 mounted one to a page on 69 almost consecutive pages; binding a trifle rubbed; the contents are in superb condition. The samples vary in size but they must average around 40 to 50 square centimetres each; they are accompanied by extensive technical details including threading and loom settings handwritten neatly and in the one hand in Italian. One page has no sample one has two samples two have a sample but no explanatory text two are blank as are about 200 other pages in the book. Ten early entries also include detailed and really quite charming hand-drawn diagrams. The text seems to describe how to actually MAKE the cloth . <p>The inkstamp of 'A. Lohbauer Buchbinder Stüssihofstatt No. 4 Zürich' appears on the front endpaper with '1871 / 1219' added in ink. When the item was originally purchased we initially assumed it to be a catalogue of cloth for use by the bookbinder but closer inspection makes this highly unlikely. For a start many of the fabrics are far too delicate and beautiful for such utilitarian purposes. Whatever its original intended purpose the scrapbook now takes on a much more significant role as home to 66 exquisite jewel-like pieces of fabric upwards of 150 years old. hardcover

All three stapled with gilt embossed covers two with similar leaf-patterns the other with a peculiar "fossil" pattern. = A very nice collection of aluminium or "tin" foil. "The continuous casting method is much less energy-intensive and has become the preferred process. It is difficult to produce rollers with a gap fine enough to cope with the foil gauge and to avoid this as well as reducing tearing increasing production rates and controlling thickness for the final pass when producing thicknesses below 0.025 mm 1 mil two sheets are rolled at the same time doubling the thickness of the gauge at entry to the rollers. After the rollers the two sheets are separated which produces foil with one shiny side and one matte side" Wikipedia.

[TRADE CATALOGUE - STEEL GOODS]
Book of Steel Toys
<p>TRADE CATALOGUE - STEEL GOODS. Book of Steel Toys. Birmingham n.p. c.1812. </p><p>A remarkable trade catalogue of steel goods for the household ladies and gentlemen's personal effects gardening tools and instruments for trades and professions. This is a treasure trove of visual information about a vast range of now obsolete tools and the objects required for daily life in the age of Jane Austen: spinet tuning keys muffin toasters cheese tasters sugar hatchets teeth cleaning sets netting vices boot hooks and so on. Particularly fascinating is the distinction between tradesmen's tools and those specifically marketed for amateurs. These are described in the individual engravings as well as in the engraved and letterpress leaf after the index leaf where the contents of 9 oak chests of tools for gentlemen are itemised as well as chests of garden tools turners tools and mahogany chests of tools for cleaning gentlemen's guns. Among the articles listed in the index are 'Lady's hammers' and 'Lady's sets of garden tools' but these do not seem to be the articles engraved on the corresponding plates. </p><p>Engraved trade catalogues of this sort were used by salesmen to solicit orders from retailers. The prices entered in manuscript are selling prices on which the retailer received a discount probably 25% see below. Stamped brass and silverware catalogues turn up from time to time but catalogues of steel goods are much rarer. Unusually too this catalogue is provided with a letterpress index. Normally the engraved leaves would be gathered up in different combinations for individual salesmen hence the plates are numbered in manuscript. In this example they do not exactly follow the printed index so the 'missing' engravings 49 and 50 may never have been present but the presence of stubs suggests that pls. 35–40 which from the index showed corkscrews were once present and have been removed from the volume.</p><p>There is a similar volume in the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County also with a printed index and 51 leaves of plates. There is a printer's imprint W. Tolley and Son on the first plate. This may be the William Tolley engraver and copperplate printer active in Birmingham from before 1790 to 1830. The name of the agent is on a label on the upper cover: 'Muntz & Purden Book no. 29 discount 25%' indicating that the MS prices are retail prices.</p><p><i>Oblong folio 235 x 375mm; letterpress 'Index to book of steel toys' folding letterpress and engraved leaf 'Gentlemen's Tool Chests' and 46 leaves of plates many printed recto and verso from 80 engraved plates. There is a gap in the pagination and stubs between 34 and 41 and these leaves have presumably been removed; pls 49 and 50 are also missing but there are no stubs so may never have been present.</i></p><p><i>Manuscript additions. The index leaf is annotated 'Livre 64456 W&L' this has been varnished over; every item is neatly priced and in some cases additional products are described for example the ice skates 48 shillings plain or 60 shillings hollow ground could be had with leather straps and buckles for another 18 shillings per dozen pl. 70; small marginal tears in first two and last leaf strengthened with tissue on verso; recent half morocco and marbled boards; from the Forschungsinstitut für Geschichte der Zahnheilkunde with stamp on index leaf and several plates. </i></p> n.p. hardcover

Catalogue. Tiles Sanitary Ware Mantelpieces Grates Etc.
Adelaide: Colton Palmer & Preston Ltd 1930. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Adelaide Colton Palmer & Preston Ltd. circa 1930s. Quarto 64 pages with hundreds of illustrations including 12 full-page illustrations in colour in fact 6 pages repeated - presumably a production fault. Wrappers slightly marked and a little rubbed at the extremities with a few tiny chips; top corner crease to the last two leaves and rear wrapper; overall an excellent copy. Five of the colour plates depict model bathroom designs 'The Sandown' 'The Holmesdale' 'The Pembroke' 'The Ripley' and 'The Dunrobin'. We have only one copy of this catalogue for sale we haven't seen one before and in case we don't see another one we'll take the liberty now while we have the opportunity of extolling the virtues of 'The Sandown' for those who miss out on purchasing the item. <p>'Many to whom it has been submitted admire it unstintingly while others are inclined to regard it as too adventurous. Though its appeal may not be general this new treatment which can of course be carried out in a variety of colours will be welcomed by many individualists with the courage of their convictions as a refreshing departure from the stereotyped. The wall colours are a deep Old Ivory and a subdued Blue that of the floor a pale Powder Blue with deeper border lines'. <p>On reflection the duplication of these six plates is perhaps an editorial directive not a production flaw after all.
