Beschreibung
8 3/4" x 10 1/4", 412 pp. The WINTERTHUR MUSEUM edition with the highest-quality paper and photo reproduction, not the cheaply-made 2007 reprint. This copy in NEAR FINE condition with only one bump near the spine top affecting the extreme inner corners of the first ten pages or so; otherwise Fine. Dustjacket is close to Near Fine, perhaps VG++, with a few creases and bumps at the edges and some minor rubbing; otherwise Fine. Actually a handsome copy [see photo]. SUBTITLE: A Dictionary Based on Original Documents, Prints and Paintings, Commercial Records, American Merchants' Papers, Shopkeeper's Advertisements and Pattern Books with Original Swatches of Cloth. "Imported textiles played a central role in the lives of American colonists. The most-imported commodity, and a highly valued one, textiles were used for bedding, bed curtains, clothing, household linens, window curtains, upholstery and floor covering. This book illustrates samples from collections around the world, as well as drawings and engravings of the time. The standard reference of period terms, technical terminology, swatch book samples, and furnishing practices is a comprehensive treasure trove." - Winterthur. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 02828v
