Chats on old pewter
A collector's handbook on pewter by H. J. L. J. Massé, published in London by T. Fisher Unwin in 1911 for antiquarians and buyers of household metalware. Halftone photographs isolate single vessels against plain grounds — flagons, tankards, measures, plates — with soft tonal gradients on curved metal, useful for silhouettes, handle and thumbpiece profiles, and object-on-white layouts.
