1876réf. 13129Philadelphia 1876. Chromolithographed trade card 3 x 6.5 inches. Minor wear paper and adhesive remnants on verso from removal from scrapbook or similar album. Overall very good. A bright and colorful trade card advertising one of Philadelphia's most successful businesses at the time of the 1876 Centennial Exhibition in that city. John B. Stetson 1830-1906 was the son of a successful New Jersey hatter. After being diagnosed with tuberculosis and told he didn't have long to live Stetson traveled west to Colorado for the dry mountain air. Near Pike's Peak sometime in the early 1860s Stetson invented the cowboy hat -- lightweight wide-brimmed waterproof and made out of animal felt usually beaver or rabbit skins. Because it sat easily atop the head offered good protection from the sun could be used to fan the flames of open-air fires and could even carry water Stetson's "Boss of the Plains" style became the most popular hat in the American West. Stetson returned to Philadelphia in 1865 and set up a factory that would turn out millions of hats in the next century and a half. The present trade card emanates from the 1876 Centennial Exhibition celebrating the 100th anniversary of American independence. An illustration of two women and three men show them all wearing Stetson's trademark hats; his address at the time was 1748 to 1754 North 4th Street; his factory would eventually grow to encompass over nine acres and produce over two million hats a year. By 1886 Stetson was the most prolific hat maker in the world. unknown books

réf. 96986First 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 . 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
