1944rif. 187991944. Pencil and watercolor on drafting paper. Lower right corner of page has been skillfully replaced. Does not affect images. Handsome proposed design for a post-war Cadillac. The license plate reads "GM 1944" raising interesting questions since as everyone knows virtually no new cars were produced during the high armament production years of World War II and certainly not pretty new dark pink ones. The car portrayed here does however anticipate very much the look of early fifties' vehicles if not necessarily Cadillacs. And bright colors certainly would catch on in a way they had not before the war. Note the 1930's Cadillac emblem on the front grille which was changed when auto production actually re-commenced. unknown

Folio (325 x 250 mm), [8]pp., followed 30 numbered chromolithographed plates and one further "extra sheet" with 10 mounted albumen photographs, a couple of sheets with slight fraying to blank fore-edge, loose in publisher's printed boards, worn, re-backed with tape. Minton's Ltd, was a major ceramics manufacturing company, originated with Thomas Minton (1765-1836) the founder of "Thomas Minton and Sons", who established his pottery factory in Stoke-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, England, in 1793, producing earthenware. Herbert Minton began experimenting making encaustic tiles in 1828 in addition to the established Mintons pottery and china business, and produced their first catalogue of 62 designs in 1835. "The Tiles in this book are, with the exception of those shown on Sheet 16, which are printed patterns, and on the extra Sheet of Photographs, all Enamelled by a Patent process, know as "Reynold's process," which was adapted in 1848 by the late Mr. Herbert Minton, and has ever since been carried on at Mintons (Limited) China Works... The process for the decoration of Tiles was early favoured by the late Mr. A. Welby Pugin, "the great restorer of Gothic Arts," in the Houses of Parliament and in many other places, and the patterns in that style of ornament in this book are all from his hand. Since the days of Pugin the use of these enamelled Tiles for decorative purposes has greatly increased, and there are now few houses without some examples...".

Impressive collection of 18 folio drawings with painted and sprayed gouache probably from the 1920s, showing Art Deco motifs for terrazzo floors. – Content: Sketched with pencil, then painted with bright and varied gouache colours setting a contrast in opaque white, present designs are finished with a thin sprayed layer of black to insinuate it's use for terrazzo surfaces, very probably floors or wall mosaics. All leaves of this set are characterised by most attractive compositions of colour and form as well as detailed execution, each of them in a unique way. Geometric forms dominate, the choice of motifs cites various artistic traditions (Mesoamerican, Celtic, Classicist). The designs are presumably of Italian origin and were skilfully drawn for by order for custom made large floors. - Condition: Corners and margins partly with some colour wear, corners partly with crease marks, overall well-preserved set of this exceptionally handsome collection of samples.
