Painting and interior decoration
A 1922 trade instruction manual issued by the International Correspondence Schools in Scranton, Pennsylvania, teaching house painters and decorators the layout of wall panels, stenciling, and finished room schemes. Plates mix flat line diagrams of paneled wall elevations and border stencils with halftone photographs of furnished interiors, giving designers repeatable panel grids, stencil motifs, frieze bands, and period room views.
