1925ref. 16469Scranton PA ca. 1925. 675 gelatin silver photographs measuring 3.25 x 4 approx. depicting lace samples against a black background item numbers pinned to lace. Some curling else generally fine. Plus 140 lace sample cyanotypes measuring 4.75 x 3 approx. Generally very good. Plus 31 additional images in black-and-white: eight 15 x 12 approx. others various smaller sizes. With: faux-leather album measuring 13 x 11 approx. and titled THE SCRANTON LACE COMPANY / Corner Glenn Street and Meylert Avenue on paper label to front cover. Interior marked curtains/table coverings book no. 3. Contains 273 images of various sizes cyanotype and gelatin silver mounted on black paper some captioned with names of product lines. Plus: two invoices for yarn and other textiles. Joints and edges worn several pages detached. Contents generally fine. A sizable archive of over 1150 images from the Scranton Lace Company a major manufacturer that operated from 1890 to 2002 consisting of samples used in home decor primarily window treatments and table linens - likely photographed for internal purposes. Composed mainly of product sample photographs including images of intricate lace patterns against a dark background and with inventory numbers pinned to the sample. Several enlargements of full table cloths and settings also included with those mounted in the album cut with striking effect to create the illusion of a three-dimensional perspective. More than 200 of the images are cyanotypes which are notoriously fugitive to light and are here uncommonly well-preserved. The company was a leading producer of decorative lace throughout the 1900s. Notably the invoices and marginalia indicate at least some of these styles were made from Rayon which had only debuted commercially in the U.S. in 1924. Also noteworthy firm designer Hugh Rodham likely responsible for many of the patterns pictured here is the grandfather of Hillary Clinton. The bulk of the companys extant archives are held by two regional museums: Pennsylvania Anthracite Heritage and The Waverly Community House. A comprehensive representation of period lace styles ranging from traditional to contemporary and art-deco patterns all rendered in exquisite detail. We will note for purely self-serving reasons that two small lots of about 50 photos both of a similar nature and from the same company made more than $1000 each at the 2015 Swann vernacular photo auction. hardcover books
ref. 0970London: R. Havell Marshall Simpkin and Thomas Richardson 1838. First edition reissue. Green morocco on the spine is lightly sunned a few plates trimmed along the lower margin occasionally touching plate-marks but with no effect to color images there is no plate number for plate 41; a tight bright and clean copy in near fine condition. Pp. vi 55 hand-colored copper-engraved and aquatint plates by Havell after Margaret Roscoe's drawings on wove paper with J. Whatman Turkey Mill watermarks dated 1828 interleaved with letterpress descriptions facing each color plate section titles Spring Summer Autumn Winter. Finely bound by Sangorski and Sutcliffe in three-quarter dark green morocco over pale green cloth boards spine with five raised bands gilt-lettered in three compartments and gilt floral decorations in other compartments top page edge gilt 4to 11.5 x 9 inches; 29 x 23 cm. The author was William Roscoe's daughter-in-law and was better known as a botanical artist under her maiden name Margaret Lace. This work was originally published in 7 fascicles from November 1829 to 1831. The volume was published in 1831; this reissue has a date of 1838 on the title page yet the watermarks on the color plates are dated 1828 as in the 1831 printing. In this work plate 47 is placed as the frontispiece. Robert Havell's exquisite engravings and aquatints demonstrate his mastery as a natural history illustrator. The process for printing aquatint plates used by Havell in Floral Illustrations of the Seasons is uncommon. It was used in the early printing of some great flower books such as Thornton's Temple of Flora 1799-1807. In the aquatint process "the plate is covered in powdered resin and heated so that when it cools its resin coating has a fine network of cracks through which acid will etch the plate; gradations of tone are produced by stopping the etching at different stages using varnish to protect the pale areas from acid while the darker areas are further etched. The printed result is a very fine network of irregular lines building up various depths of tone" Rix - The Art of Botanical Illustration 1981 p. 178.

1820ref. 319565Great Britain 1820. Pen-and-ink and wash drawings on recto only of 133 sheets a few with holograph annotations e.g. "three full flourices" or "Patterns for the border of a dress or Pelisse to be worked in chenille or sarcenet". Paper watermarked S.E. & Co. 4to. Period half morocco and pastepaper boards with onlaid dark green morocco label "Miss Brown" on upper cover with a small binder/bookseller's label on the front pastedown "Bound by B. Bean . Whitby." Binding worn joints starting. Pen-and-ink and wash drawings on recto only of 133 sheets a few with holograph annotations e.g. "three full flourices" or "Patterns for the border of a dress or Pelisse to be worked in chenille or sarcenet". Paper watermarked S.E. & Co. 4to. The present designs likely are for bobbin lace making. From such a pattern book a design would be tranferred to parchment or card pin holes were pricked through and ink pattern markings were added. The finished pricking was attached to a pillow using strong pins for the threading work. Lace schools were common in the late 18th and early 19th century to teach such skills working children for long hours in harsh conditions before being phased out by the machine made lace of the Industrial Revolution. It would seem likely that "Miss Brown" attended such a school in North Yorkshire. unknown books

1667ref. 73701667 Chez Pierre du Marteau [Elsevier], A COLOGNE Amsterdam 1667, in-12 (7,5x13,5cm), 7 volumes reliés.Nouvelle édition, et première elzévirienne après l'originale parisienne en 1660. Chaque ouvrage a la sphère en page de titre . Reliure d'époque plein veau . Dos à nerfs orné de 3fleurons. Légers frottement en coiffes, mors et coins, mais bel exemplaire, d'une grande fraîcheur intérieure.Cet ouvrage aurait été commandité part la Duchesse d'Aiguillon, nièce du cardinal, on sait par ailleurs que Aubery fut un des écrivains officiels de la cour au XVIIe. L'apologie du cardinal par Aubery y est donc moins intéressante que ce tournant de l'histoire de France que représente le cardinal de Richelieu, et les multiples affaires européennes que relatent l'auteur.

Burgundy cloth artist’s portfolio paper label w/ Lace Pannels penned in manuscript on front cover original ties some edgewear & toning to interior occasional chipping minor closed tears still a remarkable piece in an excellent state of preservation. A unique salesman sample book created by the upholstery department of Elliott Taylor Woolfenden Department store around 1913 for their clients interested in purchasing silk & cotton lace panels and curtains for their Victorian Queen Anne Homes and businesses in Detroit. They drew heavily on the designs and such suppliers as Herz & Co. New York; John F. Patching Co. New York; E.C. Carter & Son New York; the designs of Joseph Popper; Carpets flooring and lace designs of Farr & Bailey Manufacturing; and the Arts & Crafts Carpets of Witcombe McGeachin & Co. of England. The original designs laid-in to this portfolio from Herz & Co. appear to be for doorways and very tall vestibule or living room windows. Price information sizing and types of material are provided along with the designs. Lace curtains and panels became widely available after 1840 and eventually were a necessary requirement for most of the large upscale homes of the emerging upper middle class and wealthy families homes during the Gilded Age in America. The upholstery department appears to have drawn from a number of different sources and provided 100s of examples for their clients to choose from before they ordered. Elliott Taylor & Woolfenden was formed in February 1910 when the two major dry goods firms Taylor-Woolfenden Co. and William H. Elliott & Co. merged operations. They were a department store with strong specialties in suits hats interior decorating & design and other textile products. They maintained very high standards for their personnel and by 1917 were one of the most important commercial interests in Detroit.
